Battery Problems
 You can replace lead-acid batteries with NiMH batteries. The range of the car will double and the batteries will last 10 years (thousands of charge/discharge cycles), but the cost of the batteries today is 10 to 15 times greater than lead-acid. In other words, an NiMH battery pack will cost $20,000 to $30,000 (today) instead of $2,000. Prices for advanced batteries fall as they become mainstream, so over the next several years it is likely that NiMH and lithium-ion battery packs will become competitive with lead-acid battery prices. Electric cars will have significantly better range at that point.
When you look at the problems associated with batteries, you gain a different perspective on gasoline. Two gallons of gasoline, which weighs 15 pounds, costs $3.00 and takes 30 seconds to pour into the tank, is equivalent to 1,000 pounds of lead-acid batteries that cost $2,000 and take four hours to recharge.
The problems with battery technology explain why there is so much excitement around fuel cells today. Compared to batteries, fuel cells will be smaller, much lighter and instantly rechargeable. When powered by pure hydrogen, fuel cells have none of the environmental problems associated with gasoline. It is very likely that the car of the future will be an electric car that gets its electricity from a fuel cell. There is still a lot of research and development that will have to occur, however, before inexpensive, reliable fuel cells can power automobiles.
Just about any electric car has one other battery on board. This is the normal 12-volt lead-acid battery that every car has. The 12-volt battery provides power for accessories -- things like headlights, radios, fans, computers, air bags, wipers, power windows and instruments inside the car. Since all of these devices are readily available and standardized at 12 volts, it makes sense from an economic standpoint for an electric car to use them.
Therefore, an electric car has a normal 12-volt lead-acid battery to power all of the accessories. To keep the battery charged, an electric car needs a DC-to-DC converter. This converter takes in the DC power from the main battery array (at, for example, 300 volts DC) and converts it down to 12 volts to recharge the accessory battery. When the car is on, the accessories get their power from the DC-to-DC converter. When the car is off, they get their power from the 12-volt battery as in any gasoline-powered vehicle.
The DC-to-DC converter is normally a separate box under the hood, but sometimes this box is built into the controller.
Of course, any car that uses batteries needs a way to charge them.

Woking trio rally round for mammoth drive to Mongolia
TOP GEAR – Elliot Alexander, Fin O'Sullivan and Rob Prince with their modest Kia Rio
A JOURNEY of 10,000km starts with three students and a Kia Rio with a suspect roof rack.
Woking trio Fin O'Sullivan, Rob Prince and Elliot Alexander – better known as Team Birdsworth – will embark on the greatest challenge of their young lives this month as they take to the starting grid in the annual Mongol Rally.
The friends, all 20 and sponsored by Field's Care Centre in Goldsworth Road industrial estate, will depart from Goodwood on July 13 and travel through 15 countries before reaching Mongolia and their Ulan Bator finish line six weeks later.
On arrival, they will hand over the keys to their battered vehicle and catch a flight back to the UK.
Rules specify that cars can be no older than a 2003 registration and cannot have anything bigger than a 1,200cc engine. Approximately 200 drivers will join Team Birdsworth at Goodwood.
Rob said: "Since the introduction of the scrappage scheme there are just no bangers out there that cost less than £2,000 – except the Kia Rio. She absolutely purrs but we haven't got a mechanic travelling with us.
"We're not likely to have to strip the engine by the side of the road so as long as we can change and repair a tyre we should be fine.
"Once we get to Kazakhstan and Mongolia we'll have to time it right to make sure we aren't caught out. The country which has caused us the most hassle is France. We are only there for three hours but everything in the car has to conform to their crazy safety laws."
Fin added: "It takes a lot of time to organise a trip like this and we've got a bit of a system to decide what comes with us. If we don't know what it is or can't work it, it's getting chucked."
One of the rally's few rules stipulates that teams must raise a minimum of £1,000 to be split between the Mongolian charity Lotus Children's Centre and another charitable trust of their choosing.
The team have chosen to sponsor the prostate cancer research centre after Fin's grandfather passed away in 2009.

July 19, 2019 - Objection Deadline.
August 2, 2019 - Fairness Hearing date.
This proposed settlement covers people about whom Dice created a candidate profile since July 26, 2012, and with whom a third party sought to communicate using Dice's software, as well as those people who requested a copy of their candidate profile from Dice.
You could receive up to $500 if you file a claim. However, the final amount you will receive depends on the number of claims filed. Based on prior claims rates in other settlements, the parties anticipate that payouts will be between $50-$200.
A person about whom Dice maintained an Open Web profile brought this lawsuit as a class action on behalf of individuals who were the subject of candidate profiles, alleging that the handling of candidate profiles by Dice did not comply with the FCRA.
Dice denies that it is a "consumer reporting agency" under the FCRA and that candidate profiles are "consumer reports." Dice maintains that it did not do anything wrong and that the FCRA does not apply to Dice or its activities.
The Court has preliminarily approved a class action settlement of these claims which includes an agreement for Dice to make certain changes to its business practices and the creation of a common fund of $1 million to be divided among class members who provide the Settlement Administrator with their current mailing address after Court-approved fees and expenses are deducted from the fund. If it becomes final, the Settlement will release Dice from any further liability for the legal claims raised in this lawsuit.
Your legal rights will be affected by this Settlement whether or not you take any action in response to it. Please read the Long Form Notice carefully.
YOU COULD RECEIVE UP TO $500 IF YOU FILE A CLAIM. HOWEVER, THE TOTAL AMOUNT YOU RECEIVE WILL DEPEND ON THE NUMBER OF CLAIMS FILED AND COULD BE SIGNIFICANTLY LESS THAN $500. Based on prior claims rates in other settlements, the parties anticipate that payouts will be between $50-$200.
If you file a valid claim, you will receive a check mailed to the address you provide in connection with your claim. The check amount will be your pro rata share of the settlement fund after fees and expenses are deducted. The check amount will depend on the number of people in the class who file valid claims.

PLEASE DO NOT CALL OR WRITE THE COURT OR THE COURT CLERK'S OFFICE FOR MORE INFORMATION.


The opportunities for Canadian companies in export markets are vast and growing. For both small and large businesses, globalization and the dismantling of trade barriers are opening new markets around the world and creating ever-expanding opportunities for Canadian exporters.
However, along with opportunities, exporting also brings its own challenges. Even if your company is successful in the domestic market, the decision to export should be considered carefully. We have compiled a list of a number of factors to consider to successfully meet the export challenge and profit from world markets.
The first step is to determine whether exporting makes sense for your company, and in order to do this you need to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of your business in your home market.
Generally speaking, successful exporters begin with an established customer base in their home market. They have reliable production capabilities, excellent reputations for quality, and products that are in demand domestically and, therefore, potentially in international markets.
Any company thinking about exporting should assess its strengths and weaknesses. Exporting will involve every aspect of your business. Analyze your current capacity in key areas and see how they could contribute to export success or how they need to be strengthened.
It is imperative that you assess your company's position in your domestic market. Are foreign markets necessary for your company's growth? What is your scope for expansion? Is your senior management prepared to have departments work together to support an export initiative? Is your company prepared to make a long term commitment of money and people to develop export markets?
Do your senior executives, marketing and technical staff understand how to do business in foreign markets and are they prepared to spend days – even weeks – away from the office and home? Do your professional/technical staff have the necessary certifications in the foreign market? Will professional staff need to be licensed locally? Do you have access to additional qualified labour? Do you have support staff capable of speaking the relevant foreign languages?
Do you have funds available for foreign market development? Do you have enough financial resources to manage professional fee withholds (if applicable)? Are you financially equipped to increase production significantly? Is your product suited for export? Can it be adapted easily to meet different cultural preferences?
Exporting is a complex business venture that has its own terminology, networks, institutions and regulatory paperwork. There is a lot for a new exporter to learn.

Ok, have just tried to add a mildly humourous comment to one of Paper Cuts' posts and it isn't showing. I typed my comment in the box, selected 'Google Account' and clicked on 'post comment' but it isn't showing up. Where did I go wrong?
Well this worked, so I don't know?!
This is me experimenting with commenting here, but actually it is a very clunky system. I'd expect the comments to stack beneath the post like on facebook, but on blogger you have to click on the comment and read it on a seperate page. I'm not very impressed.
Lots of people have had trouble with commenting, for some reason - perhaps there was a problem with blogger recently? I think Rowena made it work, perhaps send her a quick email?
I've added a comment on this on the 23 Things week 1 post. Do have a look at this as it may be you just need to clear cookies etc.
Wordpress and tumlr are fine with adding comments from IE though.

Central Conservatory Preparatory School (CCPS) Chamber Orchestra Performs at the Kennedy Art Center in Washington
WASHINGTON, February 10, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — Teachers and students of "Central Conservatory Preparatory School (CCPS) Chamber Orchestra" from Beijing, China, were invited to hold special performance on February the 9th, 2015 at the Kennedy Art Center in Washington, DC. A youth orchestra founded by Central Conservatory Preparatory School in 2014, CCPS Chamber Orchestra presented the U.S. audience with a chamber music concert. Since its foundation as a newly-emerging orchestra, CCPS Chamber Orchestra has maintained a focus of consistently pursing first-class music and a stellar reputation. CCPS insists on developing tacit cooperation between teachers and students, and the teamwork and collaboration ability of its students. Since the very beginning, the orchestra has been devoting itself to continuously finding and training domestic young players, building a distinctive international youth chamber music orchestra, and is boldly innovating and promoting Chinese youth chamber music orchestra's march toward the world stage.
The Kennedy Art Center is one of the most famous cultural and arts organizations in the world, a holy place for top world culture and arts activities. It is known as the "National Grand Theater of America." Every year, many famous performing artists from America and all over the world go to Washington and perform. CCPS Chamber Orchestra is one of the few school orchestras that is invited by the Kennedy Art Center.
The repertoire set of the concert was splendid. CCPS Chamber Orchestra played a number of classical pieces with which the audience was familiar, including Chinese and foreign movie music from "The Godfather" and "Why Is The Flowers So Red," world famous repertoires "Las Cuatro Estaciones Portenas- Invierno" and "Czardas," and a new work, "A Nodding From Her," in which orchestral music and vocal music are combined.
Before performing at the Kennedy Art Center, CCPS Chamber Orchestra gave an international cultural exchange performance at the Music Hall of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. The team brought best Chinese wishes to teachers and students there.

Revised coordinates and proper motions of the stars in the Luyten half-second catalog
Gáspár Á Bakos, Kailash C. Sahu, Péter Németh
We present refined coordinates and proper-motion data for the high proper-motion (HPM) stars in the Luyten Half-Second (LHS) catalog. The positional uncertainty in the original Luyten catalog is typically greater than 10″ and is often greater than 30″. We have used the digital scans of the POSS I and POSS II plates to derive more accurate positions and proper motions of the objects. Out of the 4470 candidates in the LHS catalog, 4323 objects were manually reidentified in the POSS I and POSS II scans. A small fraction of the stars were not found because of the lack of finder charts and digitized POSS II scans. The uncertainties in the revised positions are typically ∼2″ but can be as high as ∼8″ in a few cases, which is a large improvement over the original data. Cross-correlation with the Tycho-2 and Hipparcos catalogs yielded 819 candidates (with mR ≲ 12). For these brighter sources, the position and proper-motion data were replaced with the more accurate Tycho-2/Hipparcos data. In total, we have revised proper-motion measurements and coordinates for 4040 stars and revised coordinates for 4330 stars. The electronic version of the paper5 contains the updated information on all 4470 stars in the LHS catalog.

A Brief History on Poly B Lawsuits and Litigation
Home » Plumbers Blog » Poly B Plumbing » A Brief History on Poly B Lawsuits and Litigation
As far back as the late 1970s, plumbing systems which were designed with polybutylene plastic were being projected to be far cheaper, as well as, a lot more long lasting than plumbing systems that were made of copper pipes. Polybutylene pipes were used for plumbing new homes, especially where rapid growth in the housing industry was taking place. As the years went by, millions of houses had polybutylene plumbing systems installed in them.
However, not too long after the installation, these polybutylene plumbing systems started to fail in their fittings and the pipes themselves. Nationwide, a lot of consumers laid blames on several factors which were poor design, faulty manufacturing, sub-par installation, as well as, material degradation resulting from chemicals that were present in the water. What followed was over a decade of litigation, a company going bankrupt, and huge money amounting to hundreds of millions spent before a class action resolution was finally reached.
Shell Oil Company kicked off the production of polybutylene resin in 1977 and remained the only producer of this raw material until 1996 when it took the product off the market. Over the years, however, Shell continues to produce this polybutylene resin and has greatly modified it for sale in the international market.
Hoechst Celanese Corporation is a producer of Celcon which is an acetal compound used prior to the 1990s for the production of fittings meant for plastic plumbing. Its competitors, DuPont manufacturers, are producers of Delrin which is another acetal product used in the production of fittings from 1983-1988. Today, both of these acetal products are still widely being used in the manufacture of a variety of consumer products which include car parts.
The US Brass Corporation purchased polybutylene resin, as well as, Celcon from Shell and Hoechst. With these products, it not only designed but produced plumbing systems and had the systems sold using a brand name called "Qest." They, then, partnered with Shell to carry out a Nationwide marketing campaign which set up a firm ground for plastic plumbing systems. Then came along Vanguard Plastics who, also, made use of Celcon and Delrin as the fittings for its produced plumbing systems.
LITIGATION BEGINS
Litigation with regards to leaky plumbing systems kick-started in the 1980s in Texas, as well as, California. However, these cases were mostly sparse, involving home builders and municipalities. It was not until 1987 that significant litigation by a homeowner took place.
James Moriarty filed a lawsuit against US Brass, Hoechst, Shell, and also a home builder called General Homes Corporation. Prior to this, Moriarty had already filed a suit against GH corporation due to different reasons but scaled after being approached by a homeowner in La Porte in Houston. The homeowner approached him to discuss a case of leaking pipes. Moriarty had a mass tort experience that was small, as well as, a little experience in plaintiff consumer litigation.
He went ahead to represent 100 homeowners and filed a suit which alleged that the homeowners experienced damages to their property, as well as, mental anguish and were seeking for damages resulting from negligence, fraud, and a violation of the DPTA of Texas. All the plaintiffs were represented by Moriarty differently and the cases filed were not a class action but were done only on behalf of the homeowners. Moriarty got a trial date and successfully won a verdict amounting to $3.4 million.
After his research, Moriarty was led by the La Porte court case to see the huge potential that existed for litigation with respect to polybutylene plumbing. He entered into a partnership with a lawyer from a Houston-based law firm whose name was George Fleming. After establishing contact at a social event, they both realized that a common ideology was held by them both in terms of complex litigation. Then again, they both believed they could use technology as an advantage over their opponents.
They became partners in the La Porte case and, prior to their separation in 1992, were able to represent thousands of persons who had complaints about polybutylene plumbing, going on to consolidate various individual claims per trial. The goals of Moriarty were clear and straightforward which were –
That his clients would receive a premium that exceeded what was necessary to resolve their plumbing problems.
That America would be re-plumbed by the defendants.
Although these were their goals, neither of the two partners were able to initiate a class action. Since the DPTA made allowances for treble damages, the trial atmosphere was accommodating for consumer litigation, coupled with the fact that Texas allowed outsiders to file cases at its courts. Earlier cases were taken to the courts as fraud cases, and some of the allegations combined negligence, DPTA violations, strict liability, as well as, fraud. Most times, the plaintiffs won these cases which found their way to trial with judgments ranging from $25k to $50k each for the homeowners. From these settlements, all expenses, as well as, attorney fees were paid.
THE BEGINNING OF CLASS ACTION LITIGATION
Michael Caddell was the lead counsel for the PB class action case which was settled in 1995 and led to more than 320,000 houses getting a full re-plumb, repair, and inspection with no cost whatsoever on the part of the homeowner.
These pipes were manufactured around the 1970s and were projected as the best alternative for metal pipes. They were manufactured from byproducts of refined petrochemical, and they were advertised to be resistant to depreciation, totally immune to corrosion, and relatively easy with respect to maintenance and replacement. In fact, between 1978 and 1995, millions of houses had polybutylene plumbing. However, this was not the case as polybutylene the grades on contact with chlorinated water which was prevalent in the US. Thousands of houses experienced polybutylene failures.
Lawsuits against the manufacturers began to be filed, and these manufacturers either had their insurance exhausted or filed for bankruptcy. Settlements were awarded which amounted into millions of dollars, but over half of the money went towards legal costs. In fact, these homeowners usually had nothing substantial left to re-plumb their homes after settling the legal costs.
Caddell partnered with the TLPJ in 1993 and filed in Houston the very widely known national class action against shell, DuPont, as well as Celanese. These partners together were able to negotiate a huge settlement which successfully helped to re-plumb the homes of individuals who met the qualifications.
Caddell was appointed to be chairman of the entity which was set up to administer the settlement and helped to get over 320000 houses re-plumbed in just over 15 years. The court-supervised the administration but was not obligated to involve itself in the settlement of disputes. In total, more than $1.14 billion was spent by the defendants, and about 92% went towards homeowners relief while the administrative costs, as well as, the attorney fees took up the remaining 8%. In fact, about 96% of beneficiaries expressed satisfaction with the outcome.
Cox v. Shell which was the final settlement goes down in history as arguably the most successful class-action settlements and shows that class actions have the power to offer huge relief to a large number of affected persons efficiently.

Der Kleppischberg oder Kleppschberg ist eine nach drei Seiten abfallende Erhebung des Lausitzer Zweiglimmergranodioritmassivs im Westlausitzer Lößhügelland. Das Grundgebirge setzt sich aus dem Westlausitzer Granodiorit und dem Lausitzer Zweiglimmergranit zusammen und wird von jungen Decksedimenten (Lößlehmschichten der Weichselkaltzeit) überlagert.

Der 344 Meter hohe Berg liegt etwa vierhundert Meter südlich von Oberrammenau und bietet, wie der benachbarte 343 Meter hohe Huberts- oder Hubrichtberg, nach Südosten und Süden einen umfassenden Blick. Auf der Bergkuppe stehen fünf in einem Kreis von sechs Meter Durchmesser angeordnete Linden. Sie wurden 1817 im Auftrag der Frau des damaligen Rammenauer Schlossbesitzers, des Rittmeisters von Kleist, gepflanzt und darunter wurde eine Familiengruft angelegt. Das verdeutlicht, wie sich in der Romantik Mystik und Naturgefühl vermischten. Die Gruft wurde aber nur vorübergehend genutzt und ist heute verfallen. Die Linden stehen wie die Pfarrlinde auf dem benachbarten Pfarrberg (335 m) als Naturdenkmal unter besonderem Schutz.

Im Tal zwischen dem Kleppischberg, dem Hubrichtberg und dem Tanneberg (370 m) liegt das Oberdorf Rammenaus mit dem Schloss. Diese Barock-Anlage liegt an einem mit Stieleichen bewachsenen Damm, der sich am Ostfuß des Berges, am unmittelbaren Ortsrand von Rammenau quer durch ein Muldental zieht. Bis 1721 wurde hier das Wasser des Kleppsch- oder Tiefen Teiches gestaut. Seit Ernst Ferdinand von Knoch sich an seinem Rand von Johann Christoph Knöffel das Schloss völlig neu errichten und dahinter einen Barockgarten anlegen ließ, breiten sich dahinter Wiesen aus.

Kleppischberg und Kleppischteich haben ihren Namen vermutlich von einer ehemaligen Hammerwerkssiedlung, die sich vor der mittelalterlichen Ostkolonisation beim Kleppischberg befunden haben soll. Alfred Meiche leitete den Namen vom sorbischen klepač (Hammer) her.

1783 wurde eine anfangs hölzerne Wasserleitung von einer Quelle am Hang des Kleppischberges zum Rammenauer Ortsteil Schaudorf fertiggestellt, ein Röhrmeister wachte über den Zustand der Rohre.

UK economy grows unexpectedly by 0.1% amid strong services
LONDON (AP) — The U.K. economy grew unexpectedly in November as the tight job market increased demand for employment services and soccer's World Cup boosted hospitality.
Gross domestic product, the broadest measure of economic activity, increased 0.1% from the previous month, the Office for National Statistics said Friday. That beat the expectations of economists, who had forecast a 0.2% contraction.
Despite the better-than-expected figures, the ONS says monthly GDP estimates should be treated with caution because they are more volatile than quarterly data.
Economists are waiting for the release of fourth-quarter GDP data next month, which will show whether the British economy shrank from a second consecutive quarter in the three months through December. Two quarters of negative growth is one definition of a recession.
November's expansion was driven by a 2% growth in administrative and support activities, with employment services growing 2.1%, the ONS said. Overall, service industries account for about 80% of the British economy.
Consumer-facing activities expanded 0.4% led by a 2.2% jump in food and beverage services as the soccer World Cup got underway.
Growth in the service sector offset a 0.2% decline in the output of production industries, the ONS said.
Manufacturing declined 0.5% in November and construction activity stagnated in the month.

La centrale nucleare di Neckarwestheim è una centrale nucleare della Germania situata presso la località di Neckarwestheim in Baden-Württemberg. La centrale è composta da due reattori PWR per complessivi 2095 MW di potenza. Nel 2011, in seguito alla decisione di uscire dal nucleare, è stata interrotta la produzione di energia nel reattore I. Nel 2016 è stata richiesta e ottenuta l'autorizzazione per lo smantellamento del blocco II, che tuttavia resterà attivo fino al 2022.

Unità 1

A seguito degli eventi nella centrale nucleare di Fukushima Daiichi, la cancelliera tedesca Angela Merkel ha annunciato la chiusura del reattore, per valutare le prestazioni di tutto il parco nucleare tedesco e valutarne l'affidabilità.

Unità 2

Neckarwestheim II terminerà il proprio ciclo vitale al più tardi nel 2022. Successivamente la centrale verrà smantellata, processo che dovrebbe durare tra i 10 e i 15 anni.

Song Traveled a Long Way to SVCC Training Program
Terence Song won a lottery and almost three years later, he has graduated from the Southside Virginia Community College Power Line Worker Training Program at Pickett Park in Blackstone, Virginia. A native of Cameroon, a country located in Central Africa, Song had applied for the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program (DV Program) that makes up to 50,000 immigrant visas available annually, drawn from random selection among all entries to individuals who are from countries with low rates of immigration to the United States.
From his native town to Blackstone, he has traveled about 5,800 miles to attend the 11-week training program and graduate with the largest class thus far, 36 members.
Song is not a stranger to lineman work as he worked as a lineman in Cameroon for eight years. In what he calls his 'new country,' he has been working for Rockingham Construction, a company that provides electrical construction work. He lives in Woodbridge, Virginia.
Song's native language is French and in studying lineman work in America, he has learned new names for all the familiar equipment. Asked about his ability to grasp a new language complete with Southern accents, he notes that he tilts his head in and listens hard.
"There are no bucket trucks in Cameroon," he said, noting that America offers much better equipment to maintain electric power lines. He said in his former country, they plant utility poles by hand using shovels and the power of five to six men to place the pole. The machinery and power line equipment here is much safer and easier, he noted.
Another difference that amazed Song's classmates are the climbing spikes he brought from Cameroon. The spikes used in America feature a long gaff or spear that gouges into the wood of the pole and allows for moving up and down. The ones used by Song have a row of shorter spears plus semi-circle claw. Instructor Clyde Robertson notes that if one ever gets accustomed to the spikes Song uses, they offer a more comfortable platform for the feet.
During his training in Virginia, he has been given a chance for more practice in snow, something one never see in Cameroon. He said the lowest temperature there is around 60 and the hottest can reach 120 degrees Fahrenheit. Also, there are not four seasons in his native land, he said, "There are only two seasons there, rainy and dry."
At age 40, he said he was the old man in the class. Most of his classmates were in their early 20s. He said some of the guys in the lineman class would tell him to take his jacket off when the temperature was warm but the temperatures here in October did not seem particularly hot to him.
"I like it here, I like the countryside," he said and the small town atmosphere. His hometown is Ombe, a city of about three million people. Proud of his recent accomplishment, he looks forward to continuing to live and work and one day obtain citizenship in his New Country.

Qatar's emergence as a global sporting hub gained further clout when Doha was chosen as host city for the 2019 IAAF World Athletics Championships on Tuesday. The fast-growing city alongside the Arabian Gulf will become the first from the Middle East to stage the blue riband event.
Walsh, who had submitted his resignation on October 21 and whose contract was to expire on Wednesday, decided to fly back to Australia immediately without withdrawing his resignation, despite the intervention of the Sports Ministry which tried to persuade him to stay on.
$176,000 during his stint with the USA Hockey.
That statement had a damaging effect as Walsh categorically told Sports Minister Sarbananda Sonowal that he wouldn't be able to travel with the team to Bhubaneswar for the next month's Champions Trophy.
The Ministry had acceded to most of the demands put forth by Walsh, even offering him a contract till the 2020 Olympics, but the 60-year-old Australian insisted on taking a "long break", citing the "disturbing state of mind" he was in. Walsh talked about the suffocating environment in the federation, especially the high-handedness of Hockey India president Narinder Batra and interference by other officials.
During his interaction with the Minister, Walsh complained about the allegations levelled by Batra, saying it had caused irrevocable damage. "Walsh was adamant about going on a break. He told the Minister that he was in a disturbed frame of mind and he wouldn't be able to coach the team for the Champions Trophy. He even refused to accept the contract offered to him till the 2020 Olympics, and insisted on taking a long break," a Ministry official told The Tribune.
Later, at a press conference, Walsh said that he was still optimistic about coaching the Indian team and a fresh proposal would be sent to him in the next couple of days by HI for his consideration, leaving the door still open for his return to India.
"As on Monday, I have ceased to be a part of the national programme. We had reached an impasse regarding my involvement with the programme. But, there may be a way forward. I am still hoping for resolution in the near future. I need a few days to gather my thoughts. I shall return to my home, Perth, on Wednesday," Walsh said.
"There has been a proposal from HI which I am waiting to see. When that document comes to me, I'll have a look at it and decide about it in a couple of days. I believe if I don't take a break at this point, I wouldn't be of any use to the team. It's been quite difficult for me," he added.
November 2013 Succeeds compatriot Michael Nobbs as head coach of the Indian team. Hired till the 2016 Olympics.

November 9 During his one-month long notice period, India beat world champions Australia 3-1 in an away Test series.
November 13 Sports Ministry appoints six-member panel to look into Walsh's demands.
November 18 Quits formally after contractual talks with Hockey India and the Sports Authority of India break down. But a fresh proposal is still being worked out for the Australian's consideration.
The meeting also supported exiled president N Srinivasan saying the allegations against him were baseless and aimed at destabilising the organisation.
Made public Monday, the report of the Supreme Court-appointed Mukul Mudgal Committee probing the 2013 IPL spot-fixing and betting scandal cleared Srinivasan on two counts — the committee didn't found him involved in match fixing, nor was he found guilty of attempting to scuttle the probe into the fixing scandal. However, the report said he and four other BCCI officials, though aware that Individual 3 (a player whose name has not been disclosed) was violating the players' code of conduct, failed to take any action against him.
The report had stated that Raman had been in touch with a bookie and had admitted that he was aware of Gurunath Meiyappan and Raj Kundra's involvement in betting, but did nothing about it.
Meiyappan is the son-in-law of Srinivasan and an official of IPL franchise Chennai Super Kings while Kundra is a co-owner of another team, Rajasthan Royals.
However, the BCCI decided to support the tainted IPL boss. "Sundar Raman gave his explanation relating to his role with reference to the conclusions relating to him in the report of the Mudgal Committee. The members heard his explanation and decided that the Board should support him to represent himself before the Supreme Court," Patel said.
Patel also added that the Working Committee postponed the 85th AGM, originally scheduled for November 20, and it would now be held here on December 17.
The Supreme Court hearing on the same case is on November 24.
New Delhi: India skipper MS Dhoni's stand that Gurunath Meiyappan was a "mere cricket enthusiast" supporting Chennai Super Kings has been contradicted by the Justice Mudgal IPL probe committee report.
The report, which was partly made public yesterday, said that investigations have confirmed that Meiyappan was a team official. Dhoni, who had appeared before the committee, had maintained that Meiyappan, BCCI president-in-exile N Srinivasan's son-in-law, was not an official of the CSK.
In its first report submitted to the Supreme Court, the Mudgal Committee had stated "representatives of India Cements, who appeared before the committee, contended that Meiyappan had no share holding in India Cements and hence cannot be considered as an owner of CSK.
Carlsen, not known for preparation, again matched Anand move for move like in the last game and had nothing to worry about as the Indian's white pieces were neutralised move for move.
The match seems to have tilted in favour of Carlsen post this game as Anand could not produce anything decisive in terms of opening preparation.
As the game started it was clear that Carlsen was happy to get an equal position out of the opening. And while Anand spent too much time on the first few moves, it was clear that the task given to team Carlsen was performed pretty nicely.
The Indian king tried but did not succeed in finding the path to execute some pressure on the Norwegian giant. The end result was a draw.
For the record, Anand went for the principled variation in the Queens gambit declined but having his long term second and friend, Peter Heine Nielsen, on the other side did not help his cause. Anand did his best but it was not enough to force the result he would have wanted.
After frustrating the Pakistani bowlers with his defiant unbeaten 32, Kiwi leg-spinner Ish Sodhi spun a ball past Shan Masood's (13) bat and hit the middle stump. Sodhi's spin partner Mark Craig then drew the other opener Taufeeeq Umar (16) out of his crease to get him stumped. Pakistan were 34 for two wickets at stumps, 369 runs behind their opponents with eight first innings wickets in hand.
Younis Khan, who has hit three centuries and a double hundred in his last six Test innings, was batting on one with Azhar Ali (four) at the other end. Resuming on 243/3, New Zealand conceded the morning session to Pakistan, who claimed three wickets for 52 runs to peg back the Kiwis.
The North Zone selection committee, headed by national selector Vikram Rathour, today decided to reward all those who have performed in the North Zone leg of Vijay Hazare Trophy.
It has been learnt that Sehwag has told some of the top DDCA officials that he does not want to block the road of promising juniors from Delhi. There are enough indications that Sehwag and Gambhir are fully aware that there is very little chance for them to make it into the 30-member probables for the World Cup with all three current openers amongst runs and Murali Vijay — the fourth opener — as their cover.
"The full force of the law must come down on Meiyyapan," Gavaskar said in Melbourne. Gavaskar said Srinivasan needs to explain why he did not act against players if he knew they were involved in fixing. "There are reports which say the Mudgal Committee has found that Srinivasan knew about betting but did not do anything about it. Srinivasan should answer why he did not act if he knew that a player was guilty," Gavaskar said.
Gavaskar was in Australia at the invitation of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to attend a special reception at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, which was hosted by Australian PM Tony Abbot.
Gavaskar said that there should be zero tolerance against match-fixing and betting. And if any player, he said, is found guilty of having participated in wrong acts then he should be jailed and his entire cricketing history deleted from the record books.
Gavaskar said, "New Zealand has come up with a new law on betting which says that guilty players will be jailed. India should have the same law." The former captain also suggested that the government should think about legalising betting in India.
In a format where the final result is decided on the basis of aggregate score of the five-match tie, Pune bagged 26 points while Hyderabad obtained 25. The highlight of the day was the singles clash between Hyderabad's Martina Hingis and Pune's Radwanska. In a keen battle, the two star players regaled the spectators with their powerful shots and long rallies.
The young Polish player grabbed an early 3-0 lead but Hingis fought back to make the score 4-2 as the strong Hyderabad crowd cheered her on. The agile Radwanska, however, managed to maintain her lead and finally won 6-3.
Former Australian player Mark Phillippoussis gave an early lead to Hyderabad with a 6-3 win over compatriot Pat Cash, 49, in the Legends category.
The organisers of the league believe there is a huge market for tennis and they have a reason to believe so — India has long been deprived of top-tier tennis action, barring only one ATP 250 tournament in Chennai, with two or three big names participating in the event.
The CTL has a host of current and retired superstars, and an essential mix of business and cinema world to lend glamour and money, and most importantly, grab the attention of country's youth.
However, a look at the Delhi leg of the CTL and the first thing that strikes you is that it's a haphazardly organised tournament.
The likes of Jankovic or Ferroro playing in front of a nearly empty stand at the RK Khanna stadium does not inspire much confidence in the league, with the claim of the match being "sold out" by ticketing partners falling flat.
Equally surprising is the timing of the matches, with an 8pm start hardly making Delhiites step out of their comfort zone.
The players involving in friendly banter and absence of long deuce games and endless baseline rallies, the tournament lacks any competitive edge. Even the Indian players on display on Tuesday — Sanam Singh and Sriram Balaji — did not seem eager to learn from the past and the present masters of the game.
As has been the case with other leagues in the country, the organisers struggled to recover the operating costs on each occasion, but the organisers of the CTL are optimistic as of now.
Garcia struck in the 51st minute, beating the towering Spanish World Cup winner Joan Capdevilla in the middle. The win helped ATK go three points clear of Chennaiyin FC in the lead position.
It was Borja Fernandez who brilliantly intercepted the ball and passed it on to Jofre Mateu whose measured cross from the left set up Garcia for the matchwinner.
Atletico now have 16 points from nine matches. The scoreline could easily have been 2-0 but substitute Arnal Llibert squandered an easy opportunity after being set up by Sanju Pradhan in front of an open net.
If NEUFC were brilliant with their defence, they were equally pathetic with their attack with the Indian duo of Durga Boro and Alen Deory wasting chances which derailed their recovery plans.
The highlight of his career has been a record opening-wicket partnership of 587 runs against Amritsar in ML Markan Trophy in April 2014. He along with Nirmal Singh created a world record in age group cricket with their feat. Captaining the Mohali side, Shubham reached his triple century in just 272 balls, studded with 49 boundaries and 2 sixes and scored 356.
Currently he is representing Punjab in an U-19 tournament in Madurai. An ecstatic Shubhman called up his parents back home after hearing the good news. "I am eagerly awaiting for the award ceremony in Mumbai and meet the big names of Indian cricket," he said.
All credit to Shubhman's father that he identified his son's interest and backed his talent. Lakhwinder erected makeshift nets for his son to hone his cricketing skills but soon realized that his son would not get anywhere practising here in hinterland.
"We realized that we had to send him to Mohali for better facilities. So we admitted him at Manav Mangal School, Mohali, where he could train with good coaches at PCA," he said.
Since 2007, the hardworking son has been working tirelessly to prove his father right.
On Tuesday, mother Kirat Gill is happy for her son and ready to forget all the sacrifices she made by keeping her son away from her.
Overlooked for the 2017 championships in favour of London, the Qatari capital was selected ahead of rival bids from 1992 Olympic hosts Barcelona and the American city of Eugene, often referred to as Track Town.
Indians open well at women's World Boxing: India enjoyed an all-win day at the eighth World Women's Boxing Championships after Shamjetsabam Sarjubala (48kg) and Maisnam Meena Kumari (54kg) entered the second round of the mega event on Tuesday. Sarjubala, a former world youth champion, defeated Grazieli de Jesus Sousa of Brazil in her opening bout. Meena, on the other hand, got the better of Ethiopia's Gebremedihin Felekech Seifu in her first bout of the tournament. Three Indian boxers will be seen in action on Wednesday. Commonwealth Games bronze-medallist Pinki Rani (51kg) will fight it out against Russia's Saiana Sagataeva, Monica Saun (75kg) will be up against Li Qian of China, while Sweety (81kg) will square off against The Netherlands' Mavine Koelemeij.

1998 independent thriller which aired on Showtime. Stewart excels in encompassing paranoia, OCD, and Alzheimer's all in one role. Enter his caregiver, who is in for the ride of her life. This is actually quite claustrophobic, and strangely enough, you'll find yourself chuckling at several bits of wry humor. Then again, quite a bit of this is heart-rending as we witness Alzheimer's tearing control away, and Stewart being aware it the whole journey. Safe house will be one of the best films you'll watch in a long time.
Paranoia in the Hollywood Hills with Captain Picard
Joseph Haschka | Glendale, CA USA | 02/28/2001
"I pulled SAFE HOUSE, a made-for-cable thriller, off the video rack solely because it stars Patrick Stewart. I mean, how bad could it be? In reality, it was much, much better than expected.Stewart plays Mace Sowell, a reclusive widower living in the Hollywood Hills inside a house packed with more security systems and personal weaponry - pistols hidden in every room - than were ever aboard the Starship Enterprise. Mace claims to be a retired deep-cover agent for the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), a fact that has put him in mortal danger for a reason he leaves unspecified. He's also obsessively disturbed by the political progress of a certain presidential candidate, who's apparently on his way to winning the Oval Office by a landslide. His fears are given little credence by his daughter, her husband, or the psychiatrist retained by the former to treat her Old Man's apparent delusions. The daughter has also just hired Andi, a perky young college graduate, to be Mace's live-in cook and housekeeper. Kimberly Wiliams plays Andi, short for Andrea, whose character displays a delicate beauty and charming appeal somewhat reminiscent of Audrey Hepburn.It's been made perfectly clear to Andi that she's not Mace's employee to fire, so the cardinal delight of the film's first third is watching the curmudgeonly Sowell (with a capital "C") engage in a battle of wits with Andi for turf rights as she gamely carries out her assignment. Luckily, Andi is made of tough stuff. She cleanly fields the verbal and psychological abuse that Mace throws at her, and sometimes manages to give back as good as she gets. Eventually, they reach a working compromise and a certain friendship, at about which time Mace begins to display the symptoms of advancing Alzheimer's Disease, thus further hindering his ability to "stay sharp" and repel any assault made on his home or person.From the beginning, any watcher of SAFE HOUSE will assume the truth of the adage that even paranoids have enemies. So, when will Mace's doomsday materialize? Even Andi begins to wonder as Sowell's convictions begin to draw her in. Stewart gives a performance that is alternately dramatic, witty, and poignant. Williams is positively beguiling. During the scene when she is first alone with Mace and struggling to establish a verbal rapport, her facial expressions as she deals with his silent recalcitrance are priceless. Although some things go unexplained, as to how the neighbors or the LAPD would tolerate Mace's live-fire pistol practice in his back yard, I enjoyed this film very much."
Quality Entertainment from Showtime. No, Seriously.
Brent A. Anthonisen | Alpharetta, GA, USA | 01/17/2004
"With the long-running James Bond franchise now disintegrating into simple body-counts-and-explosions action fare, it really is good to see a proper espionage thriller that was filmed in the same vein as the classic Sean Connery (or even early Roger Moore) Bond protrayals.This one has a twist; our protagonist is British and equipped with charm by the truckload...but he's also quite possibly crazier than a ...rat.The beauty of this movie is that from the very beginning you're aware that there is definitely SOMETHING going on...you're just not sure what. The plot moves on through the eyes of someone who might not necessarily be seeing reality as clearly as he should; is this man, merely eccentric? Is he completely insane? Or is he...well, who and what he says he is?Patrick Stewart is just fantastic. He's definitely not one to spend his time traveling from one Star Trek convention to another now that his time serving the small screen franchise of Gene Roddenberry's "generational" vision is done. His propensity for bombast and overacting that he brought to "A Christmas Carol" isn't found here; he does a fantastic job relaying the problems experienced by a man for whom the borders or reality seem to be in various stages of dissipation. You don't know whether to laugh or cry at times.And the supporting cast plays off of him brilliantly. It's obviously Stewart's show, but the interaction with characters whose attitudes range from enabling to pessimistic to completely disbelieving (and questionably sinister) makes for an intense viewing experience. How far will things go? How far will Stewart's character go? What is real and what is fabrication? It's a terrific ride, a truly engaging thriller that Cubby Broccoli (or Alfred Hitchcock) himself would have been proud to direct."
Is it a serious comedy or a comic action flick?
JD Schaefer | San Rafael, Ca USA | 12/30/2001
"I recommend this movie for the craft that went into it. I also recommend it for the story and its unexpected sensitivity.For the first half I thought it was very funny but took itsef too seriously. When Patrick Stewart, disguised (so as to be incognito while away from his home) as a construction worker, asked his shrink if he thought the shrink felt Stewart liked leaving his house dressed as one of the Village People, I thought I'd fall over laughing. Then it got quite serious and I started enjoying it on a totally different level.Patrick Stewart claims, without any supporting evidence, to be a retired government spy who has fatal information regarding a current presidential hopeful. Fatal to Stewart and fatal to the candidate's future.A housekeeper is hired by Stewart's daughter to avoid having him committed. After various humorous interviews, a sprightly young woman is hired and the war of nerves begins. The plot is complicated as Stewart realizes he is sucumbing to Alzheimer's. I particularly enjoyed where he tries to memorize the standard quizzes asked by shrinks so the level of disease advancement wouldn't be so apparent during his regular shrink visits.The acting by all is superb. Stewart continues to show why he isn't a one-trick pony.Yes there are a few unexplained occurrences but the movie is quirky enough to not be bothered by these little things. The ending is well done and one doesn't need those silly little text messages to explain what the director forgot to or how to put in the movie.This is a fun movie, enjoy it!"
"James Bond gets old"
scott welles | los angeles, ca United States | 01/15/2007
"That's the premise of this little made-for-cable gem, according to the writer / director, and it's a pretty cool exploration of the idea. Patrick Stewart is never less than convincing, either as a retired military intelligence legend obsessed with his own security, or as an old man whose mind is failing long before his body.
Suppose Sean Connery's Bond had aged gracefully, settled down somewhere and tried to live a normal life. Would he still be spending his evenings with lovely ladies and vodka martinis? Or would he be a prisoner of his own past, constantly fearful that all his old enemies would come back to haunt him? And what if his friends and family didn't really believe he'd ever had those grand old adventures?
The beauty of 'Safe House' is that there's no evidence to support the lead character's paranoid claims of government conspiracy, and it's entirely possible that he's imagining the whole thing. Yet the film keeps flirting with the possibility that his fears are real, teasing us with suggestions of menace that never entirely come to fruition. Is there a true danger, or is it all in his mind?
Watching 'Safe House', we don't find out...until the very last scene. I wouldn't dream of letting you know which it is in this review.
Patrick Stewart is a classic actor
Kori L. Carothers | Orange County, CA USA | 12/14/2001
"I was not sure if I would enjoy this movie, but it was a surprisingly well done movie. It is about an aging father who at one time was an agent in the gov't and is somewhat an eccentric person. Find out what happens when he is diagnosed with alzhiemer's! It is a thrilling movie with Patrick Stewart as the lead. He is truly one of the more brilliant actors out there, that is IMO not given credit where credit is due!"


I agree. The programme as outlined is complicated and ever-so slightly bonkers. I have to buy a (relatively) expensive Y-ticket in the hope that my offer of still more money will be sufficient to get some extra comfort and a meal on the aircraft. But no extra miles? And I'm restricted to buying my ticket from TAP :) ?

West Ham United are interested in signing Aleksandar Mitrovic from Fulham this summer, according to The Telegraph.
The Hammers are likely to look for a new centre forward ahead of next season, with unreliable options in the final third currently.
Marko Arnautovic's head seems elsewhere after speculation over his West Ham future filled column inches in January, while Andy Carroll will leave the club in the summer once his contract expires.
With Lucas Perez and Javier Hernandez also not assured to be in Manuel Pellegrini's contingent once 2019-20 rolls around, a new number nine will surely be a transfer priority.
Mitrovic has been a rare bright spark for a sub-par Fulham side this season and has shown the West Ham scouts that he has what it takes to score consistently in the Premier League.
With the likes of Manuel Lanzini and Felipe Anderson creating chances for him, the Serbian could well be the striker the club have craved in recent years.
While Mitrovic does have something of a temper, his commitment cannot be questioned and the striker could well become a West Ham fan favourite if he moves to the London Stadium.

Russian Man Single-Handedly Builds Snow Church in Siberian Village That Didn't Have One
By Spooky on February 9th, 2017 Category: News
Alexander Batyokhtin, a 41-year-old man from the Siberian village of Sosnovka, spent six weeks shaping around 12 cubic meters of fresh snow into a three-meter high church, where his fellow villagers can now to say a prayer and light a candle.
There is no real church in Sosnovka, or in any of the nearby villages, for that matter, and people who want to visit a place of worship have to drive for tens of kilometers to the city of Omsk. This is often an impossible task for the sick and the elderly, and it was this unfortunate situation that inspired Alexander to use the most abundant resource in his village to build a temporary church. He had worked in construction for years, and even though he was forced to retire after being diagnosed with a serious illness, the man was determined to offer Sosnovka a place to celebrate Christmas and Epiphany in properly.

Last year, as soon as the first snowflakes started to fall, Alexander started drawing up the plans for his epic snow church, and after the first serious snow, he got to work. Lucky for him, there was plenty of snow to work with this winter. He first laid the foundation, then moved to the walls, before completing the twelve arches symbolizing the 12 apostles, and an impressive church tower complete with a giant cross. He worked on it every day for six weeks, even when temperatures dropped below -30 degrees Celsius, and he managed to finish it in time for the holidays. The three-meter-high church is still around today, and is expected to last until early spring.
The snow church only has enough room to accommodate two or three people at a time, but no has complained about the lack of room so far. On the contrary, locals were so thrilled to finally have their own church, that they all brought icons and crosses to decorate its walls and altar. Alexander sees their gesture as the biggest miracle. He simply went home one day, and when he returned, the church was full of icons, some of them brought from as far as Spain or Jerusalem.

As word of the snow church of Sosnovka, the only one in Russia's Azov region, spread, more and more people came by to see it for themselves. Both Alexander and his fellow villagers have been overwhelmed by the attention, even though that just like the church, it's only temporary.
News of the snow church has even reached the bishop of Azov, who congratulated Batyokhtin on his work and drawing attention to the fact that there are no churches in that area of Siberia. Hopefully, work on a real church will begin in spring, he said.

September in Wales marks autumn's mellow approach as we hang on to the memory of summer. Plas Farm is awash with blackberries come the beginning of the month and great fun can be had hunting for wild mushrooms, hazelnuts, sloes, plums, elderberries, haws, wild mint and if you're feeling adventurous – crab apples and rowan berries which make a fine jelly. Statistically, September is sunnier than August and can lead into an 'Indian Summer'. Check the Welsh holiday weather for September.
These prickly stemmed plants, sometimes called brambles, grow in abundance at Plas Farm. They are perhaps the best known of all the hedgerow's autumn fruits. 'Brambling' has been a favourite countryside pursuit for generations and everyone has their own 'secret' spot where the blackberries grow thrice the size and are ten times as juicy as anywhere else on the farm. Perhaps this isn't so surprising considering experts believe there are around 400 micro-species in Britain, each one slightly different in its flowering and fruiting schedule and in the size, shape and texture of its berries. For six weeks or more, these stalwarts of the hedgerow provide a feast for wildlife, all of which raid the brambles for the sweet, energy-rich flesh of the berries. The benefit to the bramble bush is that its seed pass undigested through the wildlife diners and are shed elsewhere in ready-manured seed packets. The fruits ripen towards the end of August and are probably at their best come the beginning of September. According to a nature book I have just referred to, their fruit, called bramble fruit, is an aggregate of drupelets. All I know is that an "Aggregate of Drupelets Crumble" tastes beautiful, especially when served with fresh cream and ice cream.
This September landscape was taken from the sheltered slopes behind the holiday cottages. The light and colours in the landscape betray the onset of autumn. The foreground is dominated by striking mountain ash trees, laden with red berries. In the middle distance, Welsh mountain sheep graze on grassy slopes and in the far distance, the dramatic ice-carved western side of the Swansea Valley is coloured shades of yellow by the autumn sun. This barren rocky mountain is Allt-y-grug, which translates as The Hillside of Heather.
There are a number of specimen beech trees at Plas Farm, including three giants on the lawn in front of the self catering cottages. As the days shorten, photosynthesis grinds to a halt and the resting trees live off the food they stored during the summer. The green chlorophyll disappears from the leaves and we begin to see the colours that were hidden behind the green chlorophyll - yellows, oranges, reds and purples appear to beautify the countryside. The red colouring of some leaves is caused by glucose getting trapped in the leaves after photosynthesis stops. Sunlight and the cool nights of autumn turns the glucose into a red color. The brown colour of trees like oaks is caused by the wastes left in the leaves after photosynthesis stops. In September at Plas Farm, we see the first signs of the trees getting ready for bed, as this picture shows.
As you walk through the woodlands around your self catering cottage, you may happen across pyramids of wood which are evidence of our attempts to keep the invasive Rhododendron under control. Some of the pyramids are harvested for firewood to use in the holiday cottages, others are left as habitats for wild animals. The moss that now feeds on the decaying wood thrives in the same mild humid conditions that the rhododendron so loves. This picture has a 'Lord of the Rings' feel to it.
Few activities bring out the latent hunter-gatherer in us more than foraging for wild mushrooms. After some autumn showers and evening chills, hundreds of types of wild fungus can be found pushing their way through the grassy hillsides and leaf-strewn forest floors. The classic field mushroom is normally found growing in clusters or rings in grazed grassland and they are about ten times as tasty as the shop-bought variety. Remember that if you collect any mushrooms, make sure that your identification checks out in every detail.
Plas Farm is managed under an environmental programme that controls the stocking rates in different areas of the farm. This helps to promote natural biodiversity and ensures that wild flowers such as Devil's Bit Scabious can thrive in their preferred habitat. This picture is evidence of the scheme's success. We are now keeping our eyes peeled for the Marsh Fritillary Butterfly to make an appearance, as Devil's Bit is their favourite food plant.
Many beautiful mosses and lichens may be found at Plas Farm, particularly in the woods through which the River Clydach flows. This picture captures the moment a bead of spring water falls down the moss covered sandstone that forms the bank of the River Clydach.
A spectacular sight in May when it is covered in white or palest pink blossom, the red 'haws' of hawthorn are one of September's finest sights. Many ancient trees exist in the Welsh countryside (some may be 500 years old) and it is said that the survivors are largely because of folklore and superstition which obliged country people to respect the tree.
This picture shows shorn Welsh Moutain sheep grazing the uppermost slopes at Plas Farm. Isolated berry ladden hawthorns are dotted along the field boundaries. A fence meanders it's way along an earth bank that runs along the hillside.


I can contribute to this discussion. Early in my career I worked for four different personalities whom I seriously thought must be crazy. They were bullies and were erratic and critical in dealing with subordinates, but were quite attentive to the wants and needs of upper management. Two of these characters were army officers, and the last two were industrial managers.
After my army service I got an MBA intending to learn why the army had so many crazy officers, thinking that this was a management problem. I do not regret getting an MBA, but I learned nothing of use in the MBA program that was of help in dealing with my problem. My first two civilian managers were just exactly in the pattern, only worse.
I was talking to a wise uncle about my problem, when he said that he had worked for two such personalities, and he was as perplexed as I was. I studied this problem, wrote a book (now outdated), and gave a series of seminars. Invariably, about half of my listeners had never heard of such a thing and were largely indifferent, several who had seen such a personality up close were very interested, and always there were a few who were deeply affected by the discovery that someone else had been through the same type experience. I have had both men and women come up to me in tears after a seminar, relieved to have someone who could share and understand their experience.
It was only then that I discovered that these characters were psychopaths, and I came to that conclusion when there were several corporate psychopath cases, such as Bernie Ebbers at WorldCom and Jeff Skilling at Enron. I now have professional confirmation that I did in fact work for four different psychopath-type personalities.
Until you have been through the experience, it is difficult to believe that a psychopath can have such a devastating effect on your personality.
No problem, you're busy. I understand that. We all have projects to occupy our time.
Well in a few weeks if you find some time, drop me a line and we'll see what we can work out. Don't be intimidated by thinking there is a 'formal contract' on the table, it's really just an agreement to respect one another.
P.S. For whatever reason, the contact button is not working, for either of my email addresses.
