Furious ministers give May TWO WEEK ‘high noon’ ultimatum to win concessions from Brussels or they will join FRESH Remainer bid to force choice between no deal and delaying Brexit
-Theresa May is scrambling to find a way through the deepening Brexit deadlock
-The PM has appealed for MPs to give her more time to get concessions from EU
-Mrs May refused to rule out a final vote on her deal being delayed until March
-Michel Barnier has insisted the EU will not reopen the Withdrawal Agreement
-Remainer MPs have effectively accepted May should have two more weeks
Theresa May is facing ‘high noon’ on Brexit in two weeks as Remain MPs launched a new attempt to avoid no deal.
The Prime Minister will address Parliament amid mounting fears MPs will be forced to make a decision just days before the UK leaves the EU on March 29.
Such a last-minute showdown would force wavering Labour MPs to make a choice between Mrs May’s unpopular deal and a disastrous No Deal Brexit .
Today the Food and Drink Federation ramped up pressure – warning food firms could face extinction within six weeks in No Deal, and branding Brexit the worst threat since 1939.
But with 45 days left, Mrs May is expected to plead for more time in her House of Commons statement at 12.30pm – immediately after a meeting of the Tory Cabinet.
The Prime Minister will describe negotiations between Brussels and Dublin over the “backstop” clause – which could trap the UK in EU customs rules, in order to keep the Irish border open.
Downing Street said the statement, which comes a day earlier than expected, will give MPs more time to “digest the content” ahead of a series of expected Commons votes on Thursday.
Mrs May is expected to say: “The talks are at a crucial stage. We now all need to hold our nerve to get the changes this House has required and deliver Brexit on time.
“By getting the changes we need to the backstop; by protecting and enhancing workers’ rights and environmental protections; and by enhancing the role of Parliament in the next phase of negotiations I believe we can reach a deal that this House can support.”
Votes on her statement this Thursday are non-binding and are widely expected to be a flop.
Instead all eyes are on the “meaningful vote” on a revised 585-page Brexit deal – which isn’t expected until next month.
Labour was due to force Mrs May to hold an earlier ‘meaningful vote’ on her deal, but reports today suggest that is fizzling out.
And today top Tory Andrea Leadsom refused to guarantee the vote will happen before an EU summit on March 21.
In a bombshell admission, the Leader of the Commons twice refused to rule out a high-stakes showdown from Monday 25 March, after the summit and four days before the UK leaves.
Instead she told BBC Radio 4: “Well the PM is seeking to bring back the meaningful vote just as soon as possible.
“It is a negotiation, it’s not possible to predict the future, but the meaningful vote will come back to Parliament as soon as the issue around the backstop has been sorted out.”
She said talks were going “flat out” and insisted: “It’s not running down the clock”. But she did not rule it out.
She did, however, claimed the Prime Minister had “absolutely” ruled out a customs union with the EU – days after Mrs May left the possibility open in a compromise letter to Jeremy Corbyn .
Ms Leadsom also insisted laws will be passed in time by Brexit Day despite widespread warnings they will not.
“Those that need to be passed by 29 March, I’m confident will be passed,” she said.
Talks are continuing apace between the UK and EU, with Brexit Secretary Stephen Barclay and Mrs May’s de facto deputy, David Lidington, meeting MEPs in Strasbourg today.
On the second leg today Mr Barclay will meet irascible EU Parliament Brexit chief Guy Verhofstadt in Strasbourg.
The government described a dinner between Mr Barclay and EU negotiator Michel Barnier last night as “constructive”.
But Mr Barnier’s message earlier in the day yesterday was uncompromising, saying “Something has to give on the British side” and “We are not going to reopen the Withdrawal Agreement”.
So what do you think?

Is Chapter 13 Better for Your Credit Rating than Chapter 7?
July 23, 2019
Making the decision to file bankruptcy is Oregon is tough enough, but having to then figure out whether to file Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 can be frustrating. You may have heard people talk about which is the better choice, but if you are concerned about your credit after you file, then you may find one option outweighs the other.
With any bankruptcy filing, you will harm your credit. You are, after all, not paying your debts in full, making creditors have to take on the burden. This does not bode well for you in the future when creditors asses the risk of lending to you. However, according to Money Crashers, while your debts from your Chapter 13 bankruptcy will likely stay on your credit report longer than if you filed Chapter 7, the way creditors consider a Chapter 13 could be more beneficial.
Since Chapter 13 is a repayment plan, you will pay off some of your debt. You will show you can stick to a payment plan as well. Plus, this type of bankruptcy allows you to hold onto your secured debts, so you have those already working to put your credit back towards the positive once your bankruptcy case is complete.
This is beneficial because reestablishing your credit after filing can be tough. Having positive reports on your credit is very helpful to starting the rebuilding process. Therefore, if you can make a repayment plan work, then filing Chapter 13 may be your best option. This information is for education and is not legal advice.

The Tennessean today reported that an area of The Gulch that was previously bought by a developer in 2006 and 2008 for $3.45M sold for about half the original sales price for $1.75M
The original developer bought the 1.23 acre property on the east side of 12th Avenue South between Pine and Laurel streets as part of the property boom in 2006 when the potential for building and selling condos was in full swing. Now that there has been a downturn in the real estate market in general, the price developers are willing to pay has seen a significant reduction.
The good news is that this purchase shows another sign of the recovery of the real estate market in Nashville. Investors who are willing to speculate on buying property that would still require substantial investment represents the entrepreneurial insight that is responsible for the growth of the American economy as a whole.
Having the ability to sense a good deal is fundamental to the savvy real estate investors and the fact that an established and successful local investment group has decided to snap up a bargain in the Gulch shows that potential is still there for a profitable development.
The development group who bought the site is known as the Corner Partnership and they have been involved with other successful Nashville investments primarily in the hotel field, notably the Hilton Downtown and the Union Station hotels, but they were also involved with Adelicia condo development. This adds to the speculation that the site will become used to develop a hotel on the site with retail on the first floor.

The Federal government has rejected calls to immediately lower the price limit of items purchased overseas for which Goods and Services Tax (GST) applies to, but has not ruled out doing so in the future after recognising that the threshold is higher than in most countries.
Last Friday, the GST Distribution Review panel released a report recommending that the GST threshold for goods purchased overseas be lowered from AUD$1000 to $500 immediately. This would act as the first step to tempering the online shopping onslaught and give some reprieve to local retailers.
Calls to lower, and even abolish, the GST threshold go as far back as 2010. Major retailers, including Harvey Norman and Myer, have been vociferous on this issue.
But a report in 2011 by the Productivity Commission pointed out that lowering the GST threshold would be fruitless if the cumbersome parcel processing system is not overhauled.
"With around 58 million parcels entering Australia under the low value import threshold each year, lowering the threshold before putting in place significant reforms to processing capabilities would cause major disruptions to the international mail service and result in major inconvenience to the businesses and consumers that rely upon it," Assistant Treasurer David Bradbury said in a statement. "Without greater efficiencies in the system, the cost to taxpayers of collecting the GST on low value parcels would also outstrip the revenue that is collected."
The Federal government has announced that it is gearing up to look at reforming the parcel processing system, but noted that the AUD$1000 GST-free threshold for low value parcels is out of step to many countries around the world.
The government is committed to keeping the threshold until "sufficient data and systems necessary for efficient and effective customs duty assessment become available."
IBISWorld Senior Industry Analyst Narem Sivasailam was doubtful that the threshold would be lowered after the recommendation by the GST review panel. Not only that, but he questioned the effectiveness of such a move.
While eBay and Amazon, both US-based companies, are the two most popular online retailers that Australians are purchasing from, the majority of sales still pass through local online retailers, Sivasailam said.
"If you look at the actual numbers, some 73 percent of online sales still come domestically," he told ZDNet. "EBay and Amazon may be popular, but we're simply not buying from them as much as we are from local retailers."
Sivasailam believed that lowering the threshold would only provide marginal benefits to local retailers.
Moving to an online presence is the first step for any local bricks and mortar retailer, and while big players have tried to do so, they are simply not doing it well enough, Sivasailam said.
"We saw, with the whole Click Frenzy fiasco, that a lot of their websites simply don't have a robust enough of an infrastructure to really handle that kind of traffic," he said. "Pricing is just one aspect, but ancillary things, like free online returns, customer service, and security of the websites, all come into play."
Sivasailam noted that there will always be a place for bricks and mortar retailers, and said that despite the online shopping frenzy, it still only accounted for 5 percent of all retail sales.
"Obviously, people are still quite happy to walk into stores, and the challenge now is to have a compelling enough online presence to complement traditional storefronts," he said.

Even if you’re experienced, a high-intensity activity may result in high-intensity injuries.
Among most of the residents and visitors of the Aspen area, activities like hiking, rock climbing, mountain biking and skiing are a central part of Colorado culture. While the active mountain lifestyle of Aspen promotes excellent physical health, it poses the risk of orthopedic injuries.
One of the most common injuries athletic individuals are prone to is the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear. When ACL injuries require ACL surgery, OrthoAspen is here. Our entire knee team is skilled in using state-of-the-art equipment, including Mako Robotic-Arm Assisted Technology. Our facility addresses trauma injuries, patients in need of physical therapy and post-recovery care, and more.
The Best ACL Surgeons in Aspen Address Your Questions About ACL Surgery
ACL sprains vary in severity and commonly affect athletes. This ligament injury can range from minor sprains to full ACL tears. While some ACL injuries can be effectively repaired with non-surgical treatments, many require ACL surgery in order to heal properly, restore full function and prevent further injuries.
At OrthoAspen, we are committed to using conservative, non-surgical care whenever possible. For many patients, however, surgery offers the only long-term solution for a torn ACL.
The type of ACL surgery you need will vary depending on the severity of your injury. A consultation will help your OrthoAspen surgeon determine what method to use. During this time, your physician will properly assess and diagnose the degree of the sprain.
Patients who are considering surgical treatment for ACL tears naturally have several questions and concerns. Our doctors have generally answered some of the most common questions we receive below:
- Do all ACL injuries require ACL surgery?
The answer depends both upon the severity of the injury and the lifestyle of the patient. An ACL that is mildly sprained or only partially torn can often heal without surgery. Patients who have suffered complete tears tend to have considerably less favorable outcomes without surgical treatment and will typically be recommended to undergo surgery.
- What types of patients require surgical intervention?
Patients who have active lifestyles and intend to return to their sport or high-impact work environment are often advised to pursue a surgical solution. This is due to the high risk of additional tears or secondary damage.
- How are torn ligaments surgically reconstructed?
ACL surgery is aimed at reconstructing the torn ACL to restore healthy, natural function. In the past, ruptured ligaments were sewn back together during surgery; these methods, however, were not consistently effective. Modern ACL reconstructive surgery uses grafting made of a tendon to reconstruct the affected ligament. Grafts may come from the patient’s patellar tendon, hamstring tendon, quadriceps tendon or from an allograft.
- How long is the ACL surgery recovery time?
Exact recovery time varies from person to person. While routine activity will be gradually reintroduced throughout the course of the recovery process, it will usually take four to nine months for the surgically-treated ACL to fully recover. During the recovery process, patients will take part in targeted physical therapy to build the strength and flexibility of the ACL and the associated connective tissue.
- Does ACL surgery result in major visible scarring?
Most types of surgeries result in some form of scarring. Since your OrthoAspen surgeon utilizes tiny tools to create a small incision, an ACL surgery scar is typically only an inch or two.
Focusing on Subspecialty Care
At OrthoAspen, we are proud to offer elite-grade orthopedic care and treatment for Aspen-area residents and visitors. Our orthopedic practice offers patients a range of services focused in the specialty areas of the knee, shoulder and elbow, foot and ankle, spine, and sports medicine.
If you have experienced a traumatic knee injury and are in need of ACL surgery, we can provide you with the most effective surgical care available. To learn more or to schedule an appointment, contact OrthoAspen today at 970-544-1289.

How to Stop a Cat Climbing Curtains, Walls and More
See files for Cats
It is in a cat's nature to like heights. They love to climb up on furniture, curtains and even climb up walls. While this might be exploratory and fun for a cat, it can be disruptive and destructive for others in the home. Understanding why cats like to climb will help us to prevent them from climbing up to places they shouldn't. Since it is part of their nature, suppressing their instincts can cause problems. This is why AnimalWised explains how to stop your cat climbing curtains, walls and more, without harming our cat in the process.
Why do cats like to climb?
Before we can understand how to prevent a cat from climbing places it shouldn't, we first need to know why it do so. Furniture, curtains, walls and anything off the floor become irresistible to cats. It is as if the whole world is their climbing frame, something which isn't that far off the mark. The reason for their climbing is related to instinct and their wild ancestry.
The ancestors of cats were able to climb because they had a body perfectly designed for this purpose. They have retractable claws which grip surfaces easily, a tail which helps them maintain balance and an athletic body which allows them to be especially agile.
Additionally, cats have clavicles which are different from our own and those of other animals. These clavicle bones are ‘free-floating’. This means they are not directly attached to the shoulder bones. This morphological distinction allows them to move their front legs with great freedom, in almost any direction. This is also part of the reason cats will almost always land on their feet, something which helps when they climb from great heights.
Climbing to a place of height also allows them to observe their habitat better, even if this habitat is our home. In the wild, being up high allows them to both observe prey to hunt and watch out for predators to avoid being hunted. In the home, being off the floor allows them to avoid tripping over people and generally being away from the hubbub of a household. Many cats in the wild are considered (at least partly) arboreal. Climbing up trees allows them to stay somewhere safe, something particularly helpful when sleeping.
Should we stop our cat from climbing?
As we have seen, a cat's climbing behavior is natural to them. It doesn't climb your curtains or walls because it wasn't to be destructive. Vertical spaces are not only good for them to exercise their instinctive behavior. They also provide them with fun and entertainment. Cats like to play with toys, but they also like to run around and explore new places, something which satisfies their curiosity.
Being allowed to climb wherever they want lets them feel like they are in their own environment, something important to territorial animals like cats. If we prevent cats from climbing anywhere, we risk stifling their expression. This can lead to physical problems such as obesity, but also behavior problems and depression. Behavior issues include scratching furniture, meowing all the time or even pulling out their own fur. For these reasons, it is not good to stop a cat from climbing completely.
General tips for cats climbing
Now that we know we shouldn't stop cats climbing completely, we can still help to affect problem behavior with cats. We can do this with redirecting their climbing behavior to something less destructive, as well as by providing adequate environmental enrichment. Keep these tips in mind:
Scratching tree for cats
This accessory for cats allows us to both help avoid cats climbing walls and curtains, as well as prevent them from destroying upholstery and fabrics. Scratching posts are standalone pillars covered in a fabric which encourages cats to scratch them. Scratching trees are multi-level structures which incorporate scratching posts and covered platforms which allow the cats to rest.
Scratching trees often come with toys and other distractions to keep cats entertained. They allow the cat to keep their claws in condition, express their love for heights and climb for fun. They can jump, release energy, rest and express their feline nature.
Discourage places you don't want them to go
Although we want to direct cats to appropriate places to climb, we should also think of ways to prevent cats from going to places they shouldn't, including up high. To help stop cats from climbing places they shouldn't, we should make them uninteresting to them. One practical example is to use double-sided tape on the surface you don't want them to climb. The cat doesn't like the sensation, so they will avoid putting their paws on it and lose interest. We can do the same with smells cats hate, but it is not always possible if it causes our home to smell bad.
This trick can also be used to help keep cats off the back of the couch.
Don't encourage them
Another thing we need to do is to not encourage them to be in places of height. If your cat climbs up somewhere you don't want them to, but then pet them and given them affection when they are there, it will encourage them to do it again. They will associate the act of climbing as a reward. Instead, you should gently lift them up and place the, back on the floor. Then only pet them when they move away to somewhere more suitable.
How to stop cats climbing on the curtains
Cats often love climbing on curtains as they are made from material which feels good to claw. This is why we often see lots of scratch marks at the bottom of curtains. Also, curtains will move in the wind, making the, appear to the cat as if they are a living thing. To cats, curtains often appear as if they are a big toy they can play with. Together with the general tips above for preventing cats from climbing, we can:
- Shorten the curtains: if we ensure the curtains are not at floor level, it will help to prevent the cat from having access to the fabric. For this reason, they might not think to climb them.
- Tie the end: if you ties the end of the curtains and use a non-tasseled curtain tie, they might better avoid them.
- Use an alternative: if the cat still won't leave your curtains alone, you might want to choose an alternative such as blinds.
How to stop cats climbing up our legs
Has your cat ever crawled up your legs? The first time it happens, it might seem funny, especially if they are only a kitten. However, when a cat has sharp claws and climbs our legs, it can both destroy our clothes and hurt us. If it becomes a habitual behavior, it can be very bothersome. Often it happens because we have had food in our hands and the cat comes up to get it. Some of us even accidentally encourage them by giving them positive reinforcement when they climb our legs.
It is important we don't encourage our cat to climb our legs. When we are cooking and they come near, do not feed them. We need to ensure they don't try to climb our legs when we're in the kitchen as it can be dangerous for both parties. We also shouldn't shout or scold the cat when they do this. This kind of negative reinforcement can cause behavioral problems. Of course, we should never try to knock them off as this can cause injury.
How to stop cats climbing trees
Cats climbing tees can be fun for them, until they get stuck and are unable to climb down. Some cats may even try to jump and can injure themselves. Climbing trees is a natural behavior, they like to go up high so they can observe their surroundings. But climbing trees is also a risk for cats with outdoor access. Cats which have not been neutered are also more likely to climb trees as they look for another cat to mate with.
You may also be worried about the cat escaping or going somewhere they shouldn't. In these cases, you probably should keep the cat as an indoor animal. If there is a risk they will run away, it is best to simply not let them get out. You can erect a fence, but since cats are such good climbers, this may not actually be very helpful. Aluminium foil wrapped round the truck will likely stop the cat from climbing the tree, but it might look aesthetically very poor.
Cats which jump from heights and hurt themselves are said to have high-rise syndrome. This can be a very dangerous situation for your cat, so take a look at our article on high-rise syndrome in cats which can help shed some light on the subject.
How to stop a cat climbing the walls
Lastly, you may have a cat which likes to climb the walls. Certain wall surfaces or wallpaper can actually allow the cat purchase on the wall with their claws. Some cats simply have a lot of energy and climb the walls as a way to release it.
The best way to deal with the problem of a cat climbing the walls is to help them do so. Cat climbing walls and platforms are special accessories which allow the cat to climb up to special areas which allow them to express their climbing habits in a positive way. They can be attached to the wall and they come in various designs suitable for all types of home decoration styles.
Since we may not be able to stop the cat from climbing completely, climbing walls at least help us to redirect this behavior. We explain this further in our video below on why cats like sleeping in high places:

In some songs in Tamil cinema, the director uses different things. Many people can understand it only by observing it closely. Interesting information about the secrets hidden in some of the top hit songs.
12B (A Smile Flower):
Sham, Simran and Jyothika starrer movie 12B. The film was based on a different story. Director Jeeva kept an innovation not only in the screenplay but also in the song. A Smile Poem song is created based on the time period. At first, the song describes the seasons as sun, rain, autumn and snow. This song is directed by Raju Sundaram.
Panchatantram (Cupid Leela):
Vali penned a line in the Manmatha Leelai song in Kamal’s Pancha Tantram. He would have written that he would teach a thousand technical skills and make him understand who an Indian is. Because of this, before Panchatantram, Kamal’s film Heram was shot on a grand scale. It went to an Oscar for its screenplay. But the film did not get an award. Vali wrote this sadness in that song.
Vali (O Sona) :
Wally is a film directed by SJ Surya. In the film, Ajith will play two roles as brother and brother. The film became a huge success due to his performance. It will have a small romance between Jyothika and Ajith. One of the tunes in the upcoming song Oh Sona is based on the tune of a love story written by Eric Shekar in the 1970s. SJ Surya is a fan of that novel!
Shahjahan (I’m loaded):
Vijay’s biggest hit was Shahjahan. In the film, Meena will be singing a single song titled ‘Mhandari Vachiruken’. A line will appear in it. Tongue, nose and long beauty. Fortunately, Clinton would have written that it was never seen. At the time of this song, many women were making sexual complaints against Bill Clinton in America. Vairamuthu would have written like this with that incident as the focus.
Rajinikanth and Vijay Sethupathi starrer Petta. In the film, the song Ullala is set to be danced with Rajini college students. The tune for this song is the BGM set in a scene in the 2018 film Kolamavu Kokila. When Jacqueline asks Yogi Babu if he is drunk, he says that he is a drug addict. If you pay close attention at that place, you will hear this tune.

While attending the inaugural Capital Sci-Fi Con at Meadowbank earlier this year, I got to see James “Safest Hands in Soccer” McCulloch, the author of City of Lost Souls being ambushed by John “Ball of Fire” Ferguson of DiamondSteel Comics as John is the driving force behind the Scotland Comic Creators Football Club (and yes, that is a thing!) – and he is looking for players. So if you are Scottish and involved in comics, then you have been warned!
However, while we were chatting, John mentioned my passing resemblance to Kevin ‘Mighty’ Mouse, which got wondering about past British comic sporting heroes, many of them now faded into distant memory.
It’s a bit of a sad journey when you consider there were once so many – both for boys and girls. The Beano still publishes the humour strip “Ball Boy” of course, created by Malcolm Judge back in 1975 and drawn today by Chris McGhie (taking over from Alexander Matthews, who blogged about he arrived at his current look here in 2013). But in terms your actual sports strips, while there’s no reason Alan Grant and John Wagner’s recently-launched Rok of the Reds shouldn’t gain a popular following, Striker, created by Pete Nash, is the only ongoing commissioned strip still published in the UK. It could be argued that it’s the only strip still written and delivered with a tip of the hat to past greats such as Roy of the Rovers – and even The Sun now only publish it online, as we previously reported. (Despite some optimism from Pete back in February, the strip is still not – yet – back in print).
But let’s not dwell too much on this sad state of affairs or we’ll be here until full time. Which British sporting heroes are still celebrated to this day, and have such a following they have their own fan-created (or even official) web site?
In no particular order, let’s look at some of the characters that have inspired someone to the extent of creating a website.
First up is Melchester’s favourite son, Roy Race of Roy Of The Rovers – still much-loved and still very much an ongoing concern for publisher Egmont, who offer personalised books in which you can appear alongside the much-loved character. They’re quite protective of the ‘brand’ – Pink Key act as the Licensing Agent for the character along with all Egmont’s other comic characters – but the official websites rotr.co.uk and royofhterovers.com, the latter run by longtime Roy fan Mark Towers, are currently offline. Luckily for Roy fans, Cyril ‘Storky’ Knight is keeping the memory of Melchester’s finest alive with his Roy Of The Rovers blog.
Roy first appeared in 1954 in Issue One of Tiger as a schoolboy footballer and quickly rose to first team status. In 1976, he was successful enough to get his own weekly comic and so the weekly comic Roy of the Rovers was born.
Roy was unusual in that real life events happened to him and yes, that is his family and his kids that he has to deal with, and that’s a tradition continued by Striker to this day (albeit with a more adult leaning!).
Roy became a part of the national fabric of Britain and even now 15 years after the final regular story was published in the monthly Match of The Day, you can still hear the occasional football commentator or read a sports report referring to a particularly tense game or an especially skillful move as “real Roy Of The Rovers moment”.
Helping keep football comics alive in the UK, former Roy of the Rovers artist David Sque is currently working on a new graphic novel, Preston North End – The Rise Of The Invincibles, a project from Preston-based Invincible Books.
Next, we venture into the world of athletics with the runner that glamourised the idea of being a welder to this comic fan as I was growing up. The idea of being a sports star and having a trade was just mindblowing when I first encountered it, so as a result, there will always be a special place in my love of comics for Alf Tupper.
Originally created for Rover in 1949 by Bill Blaine and brought to life by Bill as he worked with the prolific writer Gilbert Dalton, Alf eventually migrated to The Victor in 1961 as a picture story and stayed until the end of the comic in 1992. Until 2014, I despaired of seeing any new Alf Tupper stories, but as announced by our 2014 Down The Tubes article, Athletics Weekly resurrected Alf and brought him to life for a new generation of readers for a season before once more retiring him.
And if you go onto the Alf Remembered link, you can hear yours truly and my better half participating in the Alf Tupper documentary that was first broadcast on Radio 4 back in the mid 2000s – and you can listen to the Tough of the Track theme song here, composed by Near Death Experience.
Another sporting hero that is still fondly remembered online is the almost immortal William Wilson. Born in 1785 in the Yorkshire village of Stayling. Living on a diet of fresh herbs, pure water and clean living, Wilson pushed the human body to its’ limits and beyond to prove that records old and new were still beatable. But even when compared to today’s athletes, Wilson is still impressive. The mile in three minutes 48 seconds, five miles in 30 minutes, putting the shot 91 feet. And when you consider only four people have broken the world record for the mile by running a time that was sub 3:48, that is pretty amazing and no-one has yet thrown more than 76 feet in the shot, you can see why Wilson would still have an enduring appeal.
Wilson is another character that was created in the 1940s and was first published in the Wizard as a text story. For those war-torn days, it’s not hard to imagine that a character like Wilson would have struck a chord with many children as they got by on their ration card. Wilson was converted into pictorial form for The Hornet and was illustrated by Juan Ripoll and F A Philpott while published in that comic. For those that want to check out more about William Wilson, then you can do worse than go to The Amazing Wilson website.
There are, of course, many more British comic sporting heroes – and heroines – who are mentioned in passing online, such as motoring ace Skid Solo and Hot-Shot Hamish – both largely written by Fred Baker – the latter revived by the Scottish Sunday Mail back in 2008. Not to mention wrestler Johnny Cougar, Gorgeous Gus, Mighty Mouse, Danny Boyd, Danny Deans, Wally Brand and Baldy Hogan and many others.
We’ll come back to these – some just one shot wonders – another day.

Bangkok, Thailand / Vodskov, Denmark --- Thailand’s Department of Highway is so impressed with the traffic data, collected by their BlipTrack WiFi/Bluetooth sensors, that they are now expanding the technology to cover additional roads in Bangkok. The city is considered to have some of the worst traffic congestions in the world. Especially the Thailand New Year Holiday in mid-April, also called Songkran and the international New Year holiday, are notorious for causing major traffic gridlocks, as millions leave the capital to celebrate the holidays with their families.
Faced with the challenges of trying to ease traffic and reduce the massive gridlocks, the Department of Highway (DOH) needed a solution to help provide live and detailed traffic information. To help manage the challenges of measuring and providing travel time and traffic flow information, and predict traffic build-up, the BlipTrack solution was chosen in 2015.
The mobile app, which provides information on travel times, fastest routes and other traffic information, is continually updated, in line with the actual behavior of road users. So, by considering their route and the time they depart, the motorists themselves are helping to keep the traffic moving. The BlipTrack data will ultimately help to improve the economic benefits through reduced travel times, fuel consumption and vehicle emissions.
Besides Bangkok, BlipTrack is also implemented in Zürich (Switzerland), the north island of New Zealand, Portsmouth and Port of Dover (UK), Aarhus (Denmark) and Stockholm (Sweden). The solution is also implemented in optimization efforts in 30 international airports, including Amsterdam, New York, Milano, Copenhagen, Manchester and Auckland. In recent years, the technology has been rolled out in train stations in the Netherlands and UK, ski resorts in the US, amusement parks in Denmark and UK, and at events all over the world.

SÃO PAULO, BRAZIL – Brazil’s National Supply Company (CONAB) released a grain production estimate on Tuesday, May 12th, showing that the production of grains in Brazil for the 2014/2015 season should be of approximately 202.23 million tons, 4.4 percent higher than what the country registered in the 2013/2014 season. The increase, expected to be approximately of 1.54 million tons from the previous season, should come from corn, soybean and wheat.
If this production is reached it will be a record grain production for Brazil. “We are registering twenty years of harvest growths. This shows an effort by the federal government; the importance the government has given to financing crops with the agricultural plans developed by the sector,” said CONAB President, Rubens Rodrigues dos Santos, during the announcement of the survey report.
The entity’s eighth production estimate for the 2014/2015 season also showed that the area planted should be 0.3 percent greater than that registered in the 2013/2014 season, going from 57.06 to 57.21 million hectares. Soybean should be the crop with the greatest gains in planted area.
According to Brazil’s Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply, the Northeastern region of Brazil, which includes the states of Maranhão, Tocantins, Piaui and Bahia, is the area that expanded its agricultural production the most.
According to the Ministry, favorable international prices, especially of soybean, as well as the foreign exchange rate, which make the Brazilian production more competitive internationally, have led producers to invest more in grain commodities, which may be sold abroad.
In line with the CONAB results, the Brazilian Statistics Bureau IBGE (Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatistica) released its national cereal, grain and oil seed estimates for the 2014/2015 season which called for a total production of 201 million tons.

text: Interesting find from another forum, Im not sure if I can link so I will copy the thread. Ive been using wheel brightener for the past 4 years, but I only detail my own cars, No gloves or mask, am I a dead man? Some wheel cleaners contain Ammonium Bi-fluoride. I've been doing some reading on this, and it really is some scary stuff! So I thought I would share my findings... A product like Meguiar's Wheel Brightener for instance, contains Ammonium Bi-fluoride (ABF). I should say that I generally like Meguiar's products, and they offer many alternative wheel cleaners without ABF. So this is not to bash a product or brand, but only meant as an example. I would also like to acknowledge Meguiar's for providing download-able MSDS's from their website, so people are able to know what they are actually dealing with. The first hint of the health risk is that Wheel Brightener has a NFPA health rating of 3, which reads: Short exposure could cause serious temporary or residual injury even though prompt medical attention was given. I've found valuable information regarding ABF in an article from Professional Carwashing & Detailing Magazine, available here: Article Archives Here's a few quotes from that article: Ammonium bifluoride (ABF) is one of the most common, and dangerous, wheel cleaners used in automatic carwashes today. Its effectiveness removing brake dust and difficult contaminants from chrome wheels is undisputed, but some chemists say ABF presents an unjustifiable and potentially lethal risk to carwash operators and their employees. ... ABF, sometimes known as ammonium fluoride or ammonium hydrogen fluoride, is a crystalline salt formed when ammonium hydroxide reacts with HF. Through a complicated chemical reaction, ABF essentially becomes HF when mixed with water or liquid cleaning solutions. Similar to HF, ABF was originally developed for industrial uses, like etching glass, removing oxides from metals and eliminating mineral stains from stone, glass and porcelain. "Hydrogen fluoride and ammonium bi-fluoride. are created for industrial use only," says Dr. Andras Nagy, chief chemist for S&S Car Care, a North Canton, OH-based manufacturer of car-care products. "In Europe, people are stunned that car washes are using these types of chemicals." ... Chemists say it's the fluoride ions in HF and ABF that make many wheel cleaners and pre-soaks so potentially dangerous. Whether fluoride ions enter body tissues as the result of inhalation or skin contact, they cause deep, progressive burning that may quickly lead to multi-organ failure and death. Long-term exposure to even minimal amounts of ABF can lead to brittle bones, weight loss, anemia, and calcified ligaments. "ABF is extremely hazardous and can be harmful to several target organs in the human body, including the lungs, skin, eyes and kidneys," warns Roger McFadden, technical director and senior chemist with Coastwide Laboratories, Portland, OR. McFadden says one of the most frightening aspects of fluoride poisoning is that its effects are not immediately apparent. Unlike hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid, damage caused by HF and ABF takes place slowly. By the time a victim feels the effects, it's too late to reverse the damage. Pretty scary stuff huh? As stated in the quotes above ABF becomes Hydrogen Fluoride (HF) when mixed with water, which it will always be in any useable concentration. Here's a quote from Wikipedia on HF's health effects: Hydrogen fluoride is toxic and can be fatal if even small amounts are ingested or absorbed through the skin. HF burns require immediate treatment beginning with washing with water but specialized care is indicated. HF acid burns are not similar to those produced by hydrogen chloride (HCl), or other common acids. Onset time of symptoms of HF burns are proportional to concentration. Above 50% instantaneous effects are apparent. Between 20% and 50% clinical symptoms may not appear for one to eight hours. Concentrations below 20% may not result in symptoms for 24 hours. Entry routes include inhalation, ingestion, skin and eyes. Aside from burns to the eyes, skin, lungs, or digestive tract, the lowering of serum calcium (hypocalcemia) is one of the most serious consequences of HF exposure. As the free fluorine ion penetrates the skin it binds serum calcium forming covalent, nearly insoluble calcium fluoride (CaF2). This has effects on nerve conduction and can lead to extreme throbbing pain, metabolic changes, and even death. I think the most disturbing thing is the potential long term health effects of using products containing ABF. I really don't see why we need chemicals like this in the detailing business, and hope that it is only a matter of time before before they are replaced completely. But this will only happen if people stop buying products containing ABF. I hope this post will help to help raise the attention towards which chemicals actually are in the products we are all using.

How to add control relays to HD Video is a question that I get from time to time. The new analog HD-Video cameras referred to as AHD, TVI, and CVI are being installed in greater quantities because they can provide the needed High Definition picture and they can use the existing coaxial cable when replacing older analog cameras. These HD-Video cameras share signal attributes with the older cameras that allow for hidden signals to be transmitted along with the picture in both directions on the coaxial cable.
Some of these hidden signals were used to control pan, tilt, zoom features on camera or to send contact/relay control signals to open gates, ring bells, or send contact switch signals for alarms. The control could go in either direction on the coaxial cable by inserting special signals into the (VI) Vertical Interval portion of the video wave form, and then at the other end of the coaxial cable those signals could be detected and used to control things. Once the signal is inserted onto the video signal it can be detected anywhere the video signal on coaxial cable goes. It will even go over wireless video systems as long as the control is going in the same direction as the video signal.
So why use the Vertical Interval when you could just run wires? Well, if your wire run is short and you have the direct access to run the wires then that makes good sense. However, if the cost of running the wires (digging trenches, breaking into walls, or busting out concrete) or the time to install is excessive then using the video signal to send the control signals is a good idea.
The Vertical Interval part of the video waveform is the part that occurs between the end of the picture frame and the beginning of the next frame, interlaced and progressive video both use a Vertical Interval waveform. If you have ever seen a video image roll, that black bar you see is the Vertical Interval. That black bar is a series of video lines that are mostly all black and it is in this area that control signals can be inserted.
Over 23 different variations of HD-Video waveforms have been developed so far and the Vertical Interval is different for each one of them, however they can all be used to send control signals in one or both directions.
The trick to running control in both directions and sending more than one control signal on the video is to use different VI lines for each signal so the equipment you use should have provisions to change the lines used to send the signals. Also, because there are many different types of HD-Video the equipment should have provisions to select the type of video being used so you can use any camera type. The ATU-2HD/ARU-2HD Relay Transmitter and Receiver has all of the features needed to give you relay control on your HD Video installation.
These products transmit and receive relay control contact closures encoded on any video signal such as AHD, HD-TVI, HD-CVI, PAL, and NTSC Video over cable, twisted pair wire, or wireless system. You can send your relay control signals anywhere a video signal is being used, including optical laser transmission and wireless transmission of video. Relay control signals will be carried over any distance that the video signal can go. Control and tele-metering relay contact closures are encoded onto the video signal by the ATU-2HD unit and decoded in the ARU-2HD unit with relay outputs.
Each ATU-2HD/ARU-2HD will send two contact control relay signals in the vertical interval of the video without interfering with the picture. The units are field programmable to insert the signal on 8 lines in the vertical interval so up to 4 systems can be used on the same video signal by selecting different lines for each system. Up to 4 systems can be used to provide a maximum of 8 control relays. The video format is field programmable for HD-TVI, HD-CVI, AHD, PAL and NTSC or CVBS video with the 8 position DIP switch. To program the units, use the lookup table in the instruction manual and set the DIP switches on the transmitter and receiver units to match the video you are using. Both transmitter and receiver should have the same switch settings.
One channel of the ATU-2HD / ARU-2HD can be used as a system alarm that will operate upon loss of power to either terminal, loss of the video signal or loss of transmission path, a cable cut, or wireless failure. The unit has a video loop through so in the event of power failure, the video through-put is not interrupted. Contact closures to the ATU-2HD input will be repeated as contact relay closures at the ARU-2HD output.
The system is housed in an ABS enclosure that has a UL flame rating of 94-VO and is powered by 12 Volt AC or DC power transformers (12 Volt DC power cubes are supplied with the units). The current draw is low allowing the units to be connected to the same power supply as the camera. Both the transmitter and the receiver have power/video on LED indicators for easy set-up and the ARU-2HD has two LEDs to monitor the relay outputs.

George Berkeley is usually not discussed in the canonical histories of modern aesthetics. Similarly, Berkeley scholars do not seem to have paid attention to his possible contribution to modern aesthetics. Berkeley exploited certain theoretical potentials of the emerging aesthetic experience that was invented and formulated especially by his contemporaries like Joseph Addison, Richard Steele and Lord Shaftesbury. He applied these elements in shaping a theologico-aesthetic language in the very same period when Francis Hutcheson and Alexander Baumgarten wrote their widely acclaimed first aesthetic theories in Europe. At the same time, Berkeley advances the linguistic and religious aspects of the modern aesthetic experience not in his theoretical, but in his pragmatical and popularizing writings. Instead of relying on a purely rational theology or a negative theology, he offers an ‘aesthetic’ one based on the model of the (always visible) beautiful and the (mysteriously invisible) sublime. Aesthetically, this meant a re-interpretation and re-configuration of the duality of the beautiful and the sublime – decades before Edmund Burke's Philosophical Enquiry.

The elevated rail system run by the CTA is the 4th largest rapid transit system in the US and has been voted one of the seven wonders of Chicago. Machining Chicago proposes a CTA maintenance facility in the Chicago Loop serves as a blue-collar symbol against the increasing marginalisation of Chicago’s rail workforce. The project posits an architecture of infrastructural materiality and industrial heft that re-emphasises the layered spaces of Chicago created by the city’s relationship to technology. The buildings nestles between high-rise buildings in the loop with new tracks tying into the existing elevated rail network creating a new ground plane. The materials used embody the history of rail technology such as the use of Cor-Ten steel – once the material choice in eliminating the need for painting. The building is set out on a grid allowing visual connections between each component part; the stacked spaces relate to the hierarchy of the organisation with ‘the union’ occupying the highest level. The elevated rail track forms the backdrop to each scene – much like its use in film to orient the audience location – and acts as a reference point for the building layout and the benchmark for the maintenance of Chicagoan infrastructure.
Mixed viewpoints within each illustration describe the mania present in the myriad visual connections between glowing maintenance workshops, beeping control rooms and smoky union staff hangouts.

SEATTLE – With Washington state overhauling its medical marijuana law, Seattle Mayor Ed Murray says the city is planning to shutter dozens of dispensaries.
Murray on Tuesday announced plans to require a new special business license for marijuana establishments, akin to those required for taxi operators and pawn shops. Under the mayor’s plan the businesses will be required to obtain the licenses by July 2016.
Murray said he hopes the new legislation will prevent pot sales to minors and also prevent abuse of the medical marijuana products.
The Mayor estimates about half of the city’s currently unregulated marijuana establishments could be forced to close, under his new regulations.
“It will preserve access for patients who need medical marijuana, while protecting the legal retailers from being undercut from unfair and unlicensed competition,” he said.
The Mayor’s proposal is an effort to bring the city in line with new state rules, recently signed into law by the governor.
Many medical marijuana patients have expressed concerns about new state regulations that crack down on unregulated dispensary sales.
Patients worry the new law, which takes effect in 2016, will mean higher prices and less variety.
But just as the state’s new medical marijuana law gives priority in licensing to dispensaries that were in operation before Jan. 1, 2013, so does Murray’s proposal. Seattle officials say that by their tally, 54 of the city’s 99 medical marijuana storefronts opened after that date or have been operating without a city business license.
Murray’s office says those businesses won’t be getting the special license and need to shut down. The rest will be allowed to remain open long enough to see if they wind up being permitted by the state.

FTM, 34 weeks tomorrow. Last night I was up with severe stomach cramping that felt like I had to go to the bathroom (no. 2) real bad. I was nauseas on top of it, and it would come and go for like an hour. Baby was active and still is today. No cramping anymore. Completely fine. Is this Braxton hicks? And is it normal to feel like I’m feeling baby girl move and push around my vagina area (like right on top of my vagina under where my stomach begins? What’s happening?
Sounds like Braxton-Hicks, or maybe early labor? I would make sure you’re drinking lots of water and change positions when you feel pain or nausea. If you have any leakage or bleeding or the cramping is steady and consistent go to the hospital. Download a contraction counter app
When I was 32 weeks, I had a problem where I had a bladder infection but I didn’t know because it was so well hidden. It made my uterus contract like I was going into labor but I really wasn’t. Might wanna see a doctor. You might need to be put on pelvic rest. I had to but I didn’t do a good job and my water broke at 33w5d and I had to be on bed rest until 34 weeks and induction. Better to be safe than sorry.
She’s getting ready!!
Could be early labor. Call your OB
The only time I went into labor naturally was with my first, and I was having that #2 feeling you’re talking about for 8 hours before my water actually broke. Just keep checking to see if you are leaking fluid or your mucus plug comes out that’s probably actual labor
I did that with my first and it was gal stones I had him and then spent my fist mothers day getting my gallbladder removed
Ive had these issues the past 3 months and im 33 weeks. Could be anything really.
She could also be dropping down…
Dropping and dialating
I’m 35 weeks wensday and been having this problem think she might have just got engaged at the midwife’s later so going to ask x
Sounds like baby is dropping. I felt like this the might before i went into labor with my daughter. Just make sure to drink water and relax. Listen to your body and your pain.
Dropping:grin:get ready mama:heart:
Braxton hicks if it was an hour between drink plenty of fluids it should help. If the continue after then could be labor.
Your stomach is no where near your vagina
Round ligament pains. I had that my whole pregnancy.
I can feel my son moving around in that area a lot. It’s just because he has dropped. Your little one is getting ready for labor.
My son dropped about 2 weeks ago, and I’m completely effaced so who knows how long you will stay pregnant after your little dropping.
Normal. I felt that with my daughter than like a week or two later at 35 weeks I went into labor.
was your bladder full?
I got stomach cramps when my bladder was really full.
Could be gas as well. I had severe gas pains that made me ball my eyes out …I was sweating…insane amount of pain as well
Baby’s dropping into position worst feeling ever you’ll prob get nauseated every day or every couple days until he/she comes !!
Drink, drink, drink, drink, drink… seriously though. It will help. I drank tons of water and Gatorade while I was pregnant. But also, baby is getting into position
My baby dropped at like 32/33w and I always felt her when I walked or she moved. Going up the stairs was so hard because of how low she was, I always felt like I was just gonna pop ber out!
When I went into labor it felt like really uncomfortable cramps in my belly that didn’t go away with walking, showering, laying down, drinking water, nothing. They got stronger and stronger as the hours went on. I felt nauseous when the contractions got worse.
Baby has probably dropped and your water intake hasn’t increased. It really does help to stay hydrated
Babies Probobly dropping. Drink plenty of water and relax. Your body is just getting ready to have that baby. You may start dilating soon. And Braxton hicks is normal too.
Just remember if contractions stay steady 5 min apart and don’t stop, could be real labor and need to go in.
I felt the same way with both my kids. Baby’s getting more active to break the mucus plug and start dilating your cervix for birth. Don’t be surprised if babies activity rises next couple weeks.
She is getting in place

Photovoltaic solar cells most commonly found in the form of a solar-panel utilise the semiconducting material of crystalline, generating electricity when exposed to sunlight. There are three main types of raw crystalline which are used to produce energy; the efficiency of each depends on the environmental setting. Hot or cold temperatures and whether they are exposed to direct sunlight or that which is diffused.
Polycrystalline or polysilicon consists of many small crystals, producing a metal flake effect, with a light blue mosaic style finish. These are efficient in diffused light and when temperatures are lower. Due to global mass production these tend to be the most cost efficient solar PV option.
In contract to Polycrystalline which consists of many crystals, Monocrystalline cells consist of one single unbroken structure. They are black or dark blue in appearance, efficient in direct sunlight and when temperatures are higher. Due to the darker finish, aesthetically these can be more subtle when reflecting light.
Amorphous silicon is one or more layers of silicon deposited on a substrate. Lower in efficiency but can be manufactured in flexible and thin fabrics. As well as being available in a more flexible material the cells are also efficient in low light conditions; which is what you will find in a pocket calculator. Most commonly used in lightweight applications.

Paralympic champion Hannah Cockroft is going for the treble this evening in the World Para Athletics Championships.
The 24-year-old, from Halifax, is setting her sights on a 10th world title in the 400m - after winning gold in both the 100 and 800 metres.
Hannah has never lost a race at a major championship and that is unlikely to change at the London Stadium. Clearly motivated after winning the T34 800m on Monday night, she says she is feeling 'pretty confident' about the 400m which is her favourite event.
Double Olympic Gold medalist Nicola Adams will receive an OBE today. The Leeds boxer, who's just announced that her first professional bout will take place in Manchester next month, received the award for her services to the sport.
Paralympic gold medallists Stephen Bate from Hebden Bridge, Adam Duggleby from Leeds and William Bayley from Rotherham get MBEs for cycling and table tennis respectively.
Gold medal-winning Paralympian cyclist Steve Bate is set to take part in the popular New Year’s Day Novacross cyclocross event, at Conynham Hall in Knaresborough.
Steve, who is visually impaired, won two gold medals in this year’s Rio Paralympics, and will be competing on a tandem with renowned cycling journalist and mountain bike tester Guy Kesteven in today's race to raise funds for sight-loss charity Henshaws in Harrogate.
The duo will be competing in the novice Go-Cross race which is being introduced for the first time in the 2017 event by the organisers, the Harrogate Nova Cycling Club, as a way of encouraging complete beginners to try cyclocross.
Steve’s participation is particularly fitting as the club has partnered with Henshaws in Harrogate for the event, to help raise £1,000 for a new bike rack and shelter for students at the charity’s Specialist College
The Go-Cross race gets underway at 10am with laps of a two and a half kilometre course through the grounds of Conynham Hall before the children’s races at 11am and then the headline cyclocross races from midday onwards.
Since the first event in 2014, the New Year’s Day cyclocross race has virtually doubled the number of entrants to become one of the largest fixtures in the UK, attracting a strong field of nearly 700 competitors and over a thousand spectators.
“Having Steve competing in our event is a real coup as he is an absolute legend in British cycling and an inspiration to anybody who is facing a challenge in sport or life in general.
"Steve has just an 8% field of vision, and I think we can all take inspiration from his participation in NovaCross.
“One of our key aims is to encourage newcomers into the sport. "This is why we’ve introduced the race for novices so they can find out just how much fun and excitement there is in cyclocross racing which is one of the fastest growing cycling disciplines in the UK.
“Hosting an event that sits on the sport’s international calendar is a real coup for Knaresborough and we hope to see the race’s stature grow in years to come. "Hopefully the race will support tourism in Knaresborough and bring many visitors to the town.”
Paralympic gold medallist Hannah Cockroft will be appointed Deputy Lieutenant at a ceremony in Bramham later.
The athlete from Halifax won three golds in Rio also set a new world record in the women's 400 metre final.
The ceremony at Bowcliffe Hall, near Wetherby will also see eleven people presented with the British Empire Medal.
