"Government approved fracking so it should pay for protest police" – Lancs PCC – DRILL OR DROP?
Clive Grunshaw said he had written to the Communities Secretary, Sajid Javid, about the pressures on the county of policing protests outside Cuadrilla's fracking site at Preston New Road.
In October 2016, Mr Javid approved planning permission for Cuadrilla's plans to drill, frack and test up to four shale gas wells at Little Plumpton near Blackpool.
On Wednesday, he visited the protests on the side of Preston New Road, a main route into Blackpool with a 50-mile-an-hour speed limit. He spoke to people, some of whom have been opposing Cuadrilla's operation since work began on 5 January 2017.
"Policing a protest on such a busy road is demanding and fraught with risk and is drawing on our available resources at a time when we are already stretched.
"Our officers are policing in very difficult circumstances striking a balance between the right to peaceful protest and the right for people to go about their daily business. It is a difficult and pressured and environment and I have seen for myself the pressure they are under.
Opponents of Cuadrilla's operation at Preston New Road have complained about increasingly heavy-handed policing, raised police presence and a refusal of officers to facilitate slow-walking of lorries into the site.
"I have seen the [police] tactics change and the presence grow. What I have witnessed, it frightens me.
But protesters said they had exhausted all political options and blamed the police for making the protests more dangerous. They alleged officers were pushing protesters, dragging them along the tarmac, pulling hair and using the pressure point arrest technique, where extreme pain is inflicted for a short period.
"What I am witnessing on a daily basis is a ramping up and a pressure point being applied to this protest almost as if there's a wider agenda going on.
"I think this statement does not address the way we are being policed. His statement is about resources. It's a very valid question and one we are also concerned about. However, I'm really concerned that the police methods are still not being addressed.
Police said three people were arrested at the Preston New Road protests on Wednesday 8 March. They included John Toothill, who lives nearby, who was charged with obstructing the highway. He was bailed to appear at Blackpool Magistrates Court on 3 April 2017.
A 26-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of an offence under Section 241 of the Trade Union Act and later released with no charge. A 29-year-old man of no fixed abode was arrested on suspicion of theft and possession of a Class A drug. He has been bailed to April 20.
On Thursday 9 March eight people aged between 23 and 67, were arrested and all charged with failing to comply with a police direction on prohibited assembly. They were bailed to appear at Blackpool Magistrates Court on 24 March, 3 April or 10 April.
Next week, Mr Javid's approval of planning permission for Preston New Road will be challenged in the High Court in Manchester.
The residents' campaign group, Preston New Road Action Group, and Gayzer Frackman are bringing statutory challenges against the Communities and Local Government Secretary.
The case begins at 9.30am on 15 March at the Family and Civil Justice Centre, Bridge Street, Manchester. It is expected to last three days. DrillOrDrop will be reporting from the whole hearing.
Police behaviour is starting to show sign's of them getting ready to behave as if they were facing miner's once more.
Always educational to see the frack agents swing into the personal attack slot. Clearly Cuadrilla Ineos, Third Energy, et al have enough clout with the Private company sponsored and compromised Business Secretary Sajid Javid to get the police to act illegally using cage kettling actions, which is specifically recognised as a provocation to violence and is designed to appear as if it is violence by the protesters for the consumption of the fake news complicit media. In victimising the public, intimidation and commiting and provoking violence on camera that results in contravention of their charter and remit, both legally and publically.
What is not widely understood by the public at large is that once a police officer steps outside of their legal limits of action, as detailed in the police statutes and contract, they are no longer protected by their official function, in effect they cease to act as a police officer and revert to a common law person in the eyes of the law. That means that any violence committed and provoked by the police becomes a common law matter and the public can make a citizens arrest for a perceived breach of the peace.
That can be verified on line if you are interested.
Just word of advice to new posters, if you don't reply to personal attacks, the subject cant be high jacked into a personal abuse forum, just stick to what you are saying and take the subject further, ignore the personal attack diversions and keep on saying your subject opinion.
You will see what happens when the industry agents read this.
I often see Ian Crane denigrated in these posts, so I looked at his webcasts, I found two titles, Humanity vs Insanity and Fracking Nightmare. I didn't see anything strange about them at all. I do see that like Tina Rothery, he has been victimised by the tracking industry and suffered for it financially, but what he says seems perfectly rational, as does Tina Rothery. On one post he interviews a local Mp who backs up his views.
I suspect this whole denigration thing is just another aspect of the whole character slur agenda, and that has nothing to do with what they say, its just trying to blacken someone's name because it suits the industry agenda to do so.
I read far worse from the frackers posts, but that seems never to be challenged from within the farm agents cosy corner.
I would suggest to anyone reading this to go and look at the webcasts and make up your own minds. Don't ever let the industry control what you look at or censor what anyone says, look at it with an open mind, I do.
He may not talk posh!! Though he sure knows how to voice the true feelings of that protest, truth allways upsets/gets through to the "IGNORENTS"!! He should be awarded with a "Megaphone"!! To help save his voice.
Are you seriously advocating that the band of brothers resorts to a "citizen arrest" of a police officer?
For any new protestors joining this site DO NOT attempt the above. There are lots of quirky laws but they aren't worth the paper they're written on. Why not try it out yourself just to test it though?
Possible and legal, but perhaps not advisable!
I agree, those witnessing the police, going over and above their legal responsibilities should provide unquestionable witness and video evidence only. A case of an officer at a protest site, going over and above his official duty, was videoed and resulted in that officer being reprimanded, and charges brought against him for misconduct.
Anti Fracking protestors need to get a life! Or better still a JOB! 29 year old man, of NO FIXED ABODE arrested in possession of CLASS A drug..nothing more to add!!!
You can "correlation doesn't equal causation" all day, but Rugh is persuasive: Fracking workers are overworked, undertrained, and seven times more likely to die on the job than the rest of us. (On a rig, 12-hour shifts are the new normal.) So workers are under an unbelievable amount of stress — and it's yielding antisocial results.
Pick on one person why don't you, if you think that all protestors are drug takers, then you are sadly mis-informed, the majority are law abiding citizens, people who would normally not get involved, but feel so strongly against this that they feel that they have to. As a resident of Lancashire, living about 5 mins away from all this, I will do all I can to prevent this fracking industry. Perhaps when it lands on your doorstep, you might change your mind and protest too.
This old line about get a life and get a job, dates from an era when the Tories under Thatcher were pushing the old rhetoric that the poor were responsible for their own condition. These days technology robotics internet etc. has made manual input to Industry and Businesses and of course the workings of the Welfare State virtually redundant. The modern Global Economic Condition has made the Super Wealthy of the Planet even more Wealthy and polarized Society into ever increasing gap of rich and poor. Time for implementation of Universal Basic Income. And a bit more on topic a complete switch to Renewable Energy !!!
Did you not know they have lives and is what they are trying to protect, from the "Fracturing" of their homelands!!
LCC "Gov should pay for Police as they approved fracking!" So he mean's the UK worker's who pay tax as opposed to the JOBLESS/NO FIXED ABODE protestor's with nowt better to do than complain about fracking which they tell scaremongering lie's about anyway!
Councillors are neither jobless or of no fixed abode, nor are any of the protesters and observers, perhaps the writer must provide proof of such shouted unfounded claims should be required? Dehumanisation and victimisation by government promoted industry ordered police only compromises civil freedom. These are the first steps to the destruction of democracy and the implementation of a police state and a fascist regime.
The police should perhaps declare that the tax payer cannot afford to protect private companies from the consequences of their own actions and tell the industry they must employ their own security within their confines of their razor wire cages and allow the police to carry out their prime concern, which is keeping the peace and protecting legal public protest.
You are wrong. The protestors are impeding a ligit business and its worker to go on about their work. The aggression and impediment caused by the protesters on public road and land are illegal and it is the police role to resolve the matter so ligit business can continue to operate. The private security can't handle and dont have the authority to clear trouble makers on public land. Therefore public nuisances such as these protesters are the responsibility of the police. The PC comment was right this is a political issues you can only win by political means. If I dont like a tax rise on my income it doesn't mean I have the right to go and blockade and harass the tax office and its worker. There's something childish about the way the anti fracking brigades put up their arguments.
I can see why PhilC made his decision!
Has there been a relaxation of the editing policy to accommodate some of the more extreme posters, who seem to suffer from insomnia-or, they are living in a different time zone?
Not even much to get excited about. A PC trying to get an expansion to his budget-they do it all the time. Just a local version of the teachers, NHS, and (oh yes) the police, the week before this weeks budget.
Educational isn't it? All we have to remember is that all tax payers pay for the police and local police are budgeted by local council tax contributions, if you don't want to be forced to pay for the enforced private security actions of your police force resulting from a centrally sanctioned invasion of our beautiful countryside by a private company, then write to Sajid Javid and request the activities of the police protecting government sanctioned activity must be centrally funded by the industry and back dated to the start of the public protest.
Perhaps also start a freedom of information request to establish who ordered this police escalation and why. There is an interesting angle on this.
I watched Promised Land recently not a film i had heard about before, it made an indication that the O&G industry leave nothing to chance and always ensure they own both sides of the argument as a matter of course, so perhaps understand the more wild of the protesting actions are probably deliberately promoted and provoked in order to discredit protest and allow for escalation in policing actions.
Don't ever underestimate the extent of the industry preparation for these actions.
One day we might get back to discussing the topic, but that is not what the internet "fluffers" want. It's a job that some seem to enjoy, and some make very good money from it, (can see the same on many sites discussing investments). My advice to new posters, is that if this is what you want to do, that is your choice, but it will be painfully obvious if you are not very good at it! Sensitivity is probably not a requirement either. Perhaps, as it is advice time, DYOR may be a more productive option. Looking at both sides of the argument is sound-try todays Times.
As it is a sporting weekend, I recall that when my son (many years ago) played junior football, his club were responsible for the kids behaviour and any "supporters" who attended matches. If that was not controlled then sanctions would apply, and did. Blaming the referee, or the other team, usually meant you received an even bigger sanction! Kids were taught, actions have consequences. The referee was respected, only three things you should say on the field to the ref., "yes sir, no sir, sorry sir". Different world now?
The Leith Hill oil extraction planning appeal has been refused, looking at the you tube video of the tiny narrow rural access route along Coldharbour Lane, it is the most beautiful spot you could imagine with overhanging trees, sunken sections and fragile looking road surface. The site is a beautiful quiet forest and many trees would have to be destroyed to fit the site in. Totally unsuitable and part of a unique ancient protected area.
I'll find the video link.
Video of car journey along Coldharbour Lane Leith Hill.
There is another which shows the tiny junction in the town.
You have to ask what level of insanity would even consider turning this into an industrial oil extraction plant?
I ask again, why are the most treasured beauty sites in this country being targeted?
No one in their right mind would approve this as a suitable site for industrialisation.
Spinwatch highlights PSPO and Prevent and what exclusion zones mean to us all.
If you wanted to impose police state rule on a population, and wanted to avoid any inconvenient levels of resistance, how would you go about it? Suddenly or gradually?
It has long been apparent that the UK state has adopted the second softly-softly approach to lowering its frackboot onto the face of the public.
Meanwhile, the UK state is not only refusing to release details of its prevent programme but is also now interpreting requests for information as an attempt "by extremists to evade detection, thereby prejudicing national security".
You don't need to be a genius to see what is going on here. Fracking, like all the infrastructures of industrial capitalism, is close to the cold heart of a corrupt state which operates not in the interests of the people of the UK but of the financial interests that own and control it. Therefore anyone who opposes fracking in any (effective) way is a simply an enemy of this cabal and is labelled appropriately.
And the targeting of Muslims and anti-fracking protesters is only part of the wave of stealth fascism being introduced by a pompous and hypocritical UK state whose much-vaunted "democracy", "freedom" and "civilized values" are transparently compromised.
Sleeping in public is a criminal offence in certain areas of Shepway, while Rushcliffe Borough Council is currently consulting residents on the same ban. It's a crime to spend the night in a vehicle or temporary structure in Worthing, and it's similarly illegal to spend the night in the park in tents.
Extrapolate that to protest and you begin to see the underlying plan below the present move toward 10 minute protest restrictions and razor wire fenced off tiny protest areas.
Perhaps PSPO's are next, watch this space.

A comprehensive study of the theories of error developed by the different branches of Indian astika and nastika systems of philosophy.
East and West, philosophical epistemology has succeeded in devekioing a sense of veridical infallibility. Episteme and prama, which have given their names to the corresponding theories denote a piece of true knowledge. But what is error? Are its foundations psychological or purely logical. The book of Dr. Kar gives an elaborate answer to this question presenting the whole array of Indian theories of error.

The 72nd Festival de Cannes opens with 'The Dead Don't Die'
This evening on the stage of the Grand Théâtre Lumière, Charlotte Gainsbourg and Javier Bardem launched the start of the screenings and festivities of the 72nd edition of the Festival International du Film de Cannes.
Edouard Baer, Master of Ceremonies, accompanied on the accordion by Aurélien Noel, took the stage with a speech that placed this edition under the banner of shared experience: "Cinema is the movie theatre, it is being together, going out. The collective, the group, human warmth. At the Festival de Cannes, sometimes the screening room is so spectacular that the film itself stops to look around."
Studded with excerpts from the filmography of Agnès Varda,to whom the poster of this 72nd edition pays homage, the ceremony was enchanted by the voice of Belgian singer Angèle, seated at the piano to perform "Sans toi", composed by Michel Legrand.
The Feature Film Jury, composed of Kelly Reichardt, Elle Fanning, Maimouna N'Diaye, Alice Rohrwacher, Enki Bilal, Robin Campillo, Yorgos Lanthimos and Paweł Pawlikowski were invited to come on stage before the screening of a montage retracing the career of the Jury's President: director Alejandro Gonzalez Iñárritu. On behalf of all of the jury members, the Oscar winner talked about the importance of film as a communal experience, and the dedication, passion and excitement of this jury as they embrace the Selection to discover within it the treasures of 2019.
Marking the return of Jim Jarmusch in Competition, the first film, The Dead Don't Die, was screened after the Ceremony with the director and his impressive cast in attendance: Bill Murray, Adam Driver, Tilda Swinton, Chloë Sevigny, Selena Gomez, Sara Driver and Luka Sabbat.
The Ceremony was retransmitted in clear by Canal +, and also in nearly 600 partner cinemas. Screening of The Dead Don't Die will start tomorrow in French cinemas.

Sam Snead won the Greater Greensboro Open in 1965 at the age of 52.
"It would be great," Singh, who has not won on the tour in 11 years, said of the record. "I'm physically quite capable of doing it.
Three-times major winner Singh's five-under 65 was the lowest score of the round. He was eventually joined by Keith Mitchell (70) and South Korean Lee Kyoung-hoon (68) on six-under 204.
Rickie Fowler was two shots behind Clark on 205 after shooting a 66, with six players another stroke behind including first round leader Jhonattan Vegas (69).
Clark, seeking his first PGA Tour victory, got off to a sizzling start, but cooled as the 25-year-old suffered bogeys on the ninth, 13th and 15th holes.
"It was a dream start," Clark said.
"To pull it off was great, and just having that cushion makes you feel a little bit relaxed playing to the tough holes on the back side.
Mitchell, the second round co-leader with Im, shared the lead with Clark for a major portion of the day, but a bogey at the 16th ended his chances of matching Clark.
Adam Schenk, who was among the six players three strokes behind after a 68, was retroactively assessed a two-stroke penalty for a rules violation on Friday.
Schenk violated the new rule designed to prevent players from being aligned by their caddies.

Pakistani users are shifting their Internet into a new gear in 2014, which will be the year mobile Internet overtakes desktop Internet, according to a new survey sponsored by Google.
[/list] This trend follows a decline in the prices of smartphones and tablets, and anticipated launch of 3G services. Internet-capable feature phones are expected to continue to play an important role, too. An additional factor is the unreliability of the electricity supply which is also helping to promote the usage of tablets and smartphones in Pakistan.
[blockquote cite="Tania Aidrus, Manager for Asian Growth Markets, Google Asia Pacific."] We think 2014 is the year mobile Internet overtakes desktop Internet in Pakistan. Consumers are really starting to embrace smartphones and tablets.
These findings come from a survey of over 1,000 Pakistanis by research firm IDC on behalf of Google. The "Pakistan Digital Consumer Study" conducted earlier this quarter took a look at the life of the connected Pakistani consumer.
Pakistani digital consumers are engaging more with the Internet than ever before: of those surveyed, 70 percent spend time daily on the Internet while 60 percent say it is also where they liked to spend most of their personal time. Watching TV (41 percent) and reading the newspaper (24 percent) combined ranked lower than the Internet.
The study revealed that home is the preferred location for Internet access — even for mobile-only users, who prefer to use their home wi-fi connection. The average hours spent on the Internet are 2.25 hours a day on weekdays and 3 hours a day on weekends.
The top three activities in Pakistan both on desktop and mobile Internet are: social media, email and general search. Interestingly, digital Pakistanis like to learn on their smartphones with educational content coming in fourth. Also popular on smartphones are online banking, researching financial services and investment, and bill payments — pointing to a near future where digitally literate Pakistanis make the Web work for them.
The main challenge of Internet proliferation in Pakistan are the quality and reliability of connectivity — including poor speed or bandwidth availability, perceived value-for-money, customer service quality, limited choice of plans and frequency of service interruptions. The unreliability of the power supply is also a factor.
With digital Pakistanis living more of their lives online, the main opportunities are related to the economic contribution of the Internet, especially for small-medium businesses, as well as nutritious and local Internet content: education, research, financial services.
There are over 2 billion Internet users today. Throughout the 2000s, the Internet has been defined by developed countries, but it is now being defined by massive, developing countries like Pakistan.
[blockquote cite=" Aidrus "] Emerging markets are starting from mobile, so if we lower Internet access barriers to consumers, businesses and communities, then we can expect growth far more rapid than what we're already seeing.
As other markets have demonstrated, growth on the Internet encourages growth across the economy. More businesses online means more information for people and incentives to create better networks and content that better reflect local culture and needs. That will make the Internet more valuable and the economy stronger for Pakistan.

Excitement builds over new designer clothes shop opening in Meadowhall next week
A new store is preparing to make its retail debut in Meadowhall next week.
Thursday, 26th October 2017, 11:49 am
Updated Tuesday, 12th December 2017, 8:45 am
Meadowhall Sheffield
Leeds-based mail-order and online clothing retailer Joe Browns is preparing to open its first ever shop and has picked Meadowhall as their destination.
The nearly 4,000sq ft store offering quirky and distinctive designer clothing for men and women will be located on the High Street of the Upper Level opposite the newly opened Apple store.
The decision to make its debut in the shopping centre comes as the company prepares to celebrate 20 years of online and mail-order success, reporting a rise of more than 30 per cent in direct sales in the last two years.
Simon Brown, MD and Founder of Joe Browns, said: "Despite online retail booming and many high streets unfortunately struggling, the time and place is right for us now to take this new opportunity.
"As a leading regional fashion and retail destination, Meadowhall was the perfect choice for us.
"We believe the brand will bring a point of difference to the Sheffield shopping scene and be a go-to destination for free-thinking, spontaneous individuals who want their fashion choices to match their lust for life.
"We're very much looking forward to capturing the essence of our fun and liberating lifestyle brand and bringing it to life in our first shop.
On completion, expected in just a few weeks' time, the new store will form part of the shopping centre's £60 million regeneration.
Other stores to have recently opened in the centre include Flannels, Neal's Yard, Godiva and Tag Heuer as well as large refurbishments from stores including House of Fraser, All saints and Hollister.
Andrew Smith, the newly appointed store manager for Joe Browns, said: "Meadowhall is a great place to host our flagship store and the shop itself will offer so much for existing customers and people new to the brand.
"Joe Browns offers a cool, quirky and eclectic range of products for people from all walks of life and with Meadowhall's regeneration and expansion pulling in more and more people to the centre, I'm sure this will be a growing success story for both of us."
Darren Pearce, centre director at Meadowhall, said: "We're absolutely delighted to welcome Joe Brown's flagship store to Meadowhall. The fantastic brand will be joining our growing arsenal of designer retailers; forming an integral part of our £60million refurbishment.
"Coupled with our successful year achieving planning permission for our £300million leisure hall extension, 2018 is set to be an exciting year for Meadowhall."


Get Up Close | God has your back!
I was in a meeting the other day that was taking place in a large conference room. Someone stepped forward to speak and they had a power point presentation that went along with their subject. Each slide had a lot of things going on, so in order to be able to see all that was going on and to hear all that was being said, I moved closer to the front of the room. I knew that if I was not closer physically, I would miss out.
I pray that you will have a blessed week. I pray that you will draw close to God and that you will not miss out on all that He is doing and wanting to say to you. I trust that will happen as you make time this week to stay in His Word, in His Worship and in His Work.

Meet Sgt. Abe, the Honest Recruiter.
Sgt. Abe guides you through the enlistment agreement of the U.S. Armed Forces – pointing out many snares along the way, which most recruiters don't talk about.

The above poster was provided by Quaker House at http://quakerhouse.org/documents/enlist.html . While it is tailored for American citizens, it is relevant for citizens of all countries. All wars could be stopped "tomorrow" if our leaders were so motivated, used non-violent means for resolving disputes, obeyed international law and order, and provided the United Nations with resources for policing. The greatest cause of wars are unscrupulous leaders who, out of greed for power and riches, manipulate their followers to kill on their behalf through fear, intolerance, racism, ignorance, etc., etc. The only people benefiting from war today are the military/industrial/congressional congress. Soldiers die or are maimed so the rich and powerful can stay that way.
I have also talked to military personnel who were unaware of the health effects of depleted uranium (see http://www.peace.ca/depleteduranium.htm ). Our Department of National Defence is sending Canadians into zones containing radiation poisoning, without adequate protection or warning. Depleted uranium causes birth defects and premature death (akin to Gulf War Syndrome). This begs the question, "What else is the military not telling its recruits?"
the Canadian military is increasing being driven and tainted by United States foreign and military policy. Why?: because the Canadian Government is afraid of U.S. retaliation - the U.S. is Canada's greatest economic opportunity, but the U.S. is also the greatest threat to Canada's security - and the U.S. has been known to retaliate. These policies includes policies of psyops (which is a fancy word that, among other things, means lying), pre-emptive attack (which is illegal under international law), torture (which is illegal under the Geneva Convention), attack of civilians and any other illegal and immoral activity when deemed in U.S. national interest.
Before you enlist, do your own research. Your life depends upon it.
Our goal is to significantly reduce the human cost of direct and indirect violence to Canadians and others, including illegitimate military violence.

Abandon is the sixteenth studio album by the British hard rock band Deep Purple, released in the Spring of 1998. It was Deep Purple's second album with Steve Morse on guitar and the last album to feature founding member Jon Lord prior to his departure in 2002.
The album was followed by a successful 1998/1999 world tour which brought Deep Purple to Australia for the first time in 15 years. In 1999 a live album and DVD Total Abandon: Australia '99 recorded in Melbourne on 20 April 1999 was released.
The album title is actually a pun from Ian Gillan – "A Band On" – and the album was followed by the "A Band on Tour". Uniquely for a Deep Purple studio album, it features a reworking of a previously recorded song – "Bloodsucker" from Deep Purple in Rock (here re-titled "Bludsucker"). "Don't Make Me Happy" was mistakenly mastered in mono, and not amended on the final release. One of the two versions of the song released on promo single was, however, mastered in stereo.
All tracks written by Ian Gillan, Roger Glover, Jon Lord, Steve Morse, Ian Paice, except where noted..

NORWALK -- Residents whose properties were damaged by Hurricane Sandy were urged by officials on Thursday to apply for help from the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
"They can immediately apply for assistance with temporary shelter and with housing, and they can do that a number of ways," said U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, speaking at a press conference in Bridgeport Thursday morning after touring storm damage with other officials.
To apply for assistance, call 1-800-621-FEMA (3362), or apply online by visiting http://www.disasterassistance.gov/.
FEMA assistance is available to cover the cost of temporary housing, home repair or replacement, permanent and semi-permanent housing construction, as well as medical, dental, funeral and transportation expenses.
"The simple advice to people is to go online, the applications have been streamlined, the process has been expedited," said Sen. Richard M. Blumenthal.
Congressman Jim Himes said FEMA is currently setting up facilities to assist people and small businesses.
Himes' offices at 211 State St. in Bridgeport and 888 Washington Boulevard in Stamford are open and fully staffed to assist people, his staff said.
"I strongly urge anyone who is eligible to take advantage of federal hurricane assistance," Himes said.
Applicants should keep careful records of their hurricane-related expenses. Proof will be needed to receive federal assistance.
Small business owners are eligible for assistance under the Small Business Administration. The agency's website can be found at http://www.sba.gov/. Small business owners should also register through http://www.disasterassistance.gov/ to find out if there are other resources available to them as individuals or as business owners, according to Himes' office.
President Barack Obama has declared a major disaster in Connecticut as a result of Hurricane Sandy, making available federal funding for recovery efforts. That includes direct federal assistance to towns and cities in Fairfield, Middlesex, New Haven and New London counties.
Gov. Dannel P. Malloy said Thursday that Obama has approved a 100 percent cost share for 10 days for emergency power restoration and emergency public transportation assistance for the four shoreline counties.
"As we continue with the recovery process from Hurricane Sandy, I am very appreciative of President Obama's commitment to the State of Connecticut and its residents," Malloy said. "We continue to work to get the state back to normal following this devastating storm."
Norwalk Mayor Richard A. Moccia said city department heads have been directed to document "every penny, every use of equipment, every damage, everything."

Can domestic violence victims finally hope that the Family Court will start applying the Domestic Violence Act properly and provide them with the protection the law was designed to give them?
The Court of Appeal has handed down the most important decision on the act since it took effect more than 20 years ago.
The Domestic Violence Act was passed in 1995, following an inquiry conducted by retired Chief Justice Sir Ronald Davison after Alan Bristol killed his three daughters in 1994.
Sir Ronald recommended the law be strengthened to better protect domestic violence victims.
Parliament passed a new, tougher law. But, almost immediately, concerns arose about how Family Court judges interpreted and applied the law.
I was one of a group of lawyers in 1999 who organised a meeting with Family Court judges to discuss with them our concerns about how hard it was to obtain urgent protection orders.
Protection orders are the key mechanism under the act designed to keep women and children safe.
I spoke to judges at that meeting about my concerns with the irrelevant considerations being taken into account when judges decided whether or not to grant protection orders.
I have dealt with a case in which a judge refused to grant a final protection order because the parties were young.
That is not a criterion under the act for declining an order.
I have also dealt with cases in which a judge refused to grant a protection order because the women and children were in a Women's Refuge and he thought they were safe.
One judge said he thought about what was fair to the violent partner when he ruled on orders.
A judge also said that physical violence within the past few days was required in order for an urgent protection order to be granted.
That is not what the Domestic Violence Act says.
My experience of misapplication of the law has been shared by many other family lawyers over the past two decades – and women and children's safety has been compromised as a result.
That is why the Court of Appeal's decision is so important.
It spells out very clearly and directly that the Domestic Violence Act is to be interpreted in plain language and to give effect to its purpose of protecting domestic violence victims.
A Family Court Judge had ruled that an interim protection order granted to SN should be discharged.
That is almost invariably the end of the matter: domestic violence victims are primarily trying to stay alive and keep their children safe.
They don't have the time, money or energy to fight court cases. In addition, when they go to the Family Court seeking protection, it is a massive knock-back when they are disbelieved and their fears and experiences of violence are belittled and disregarded.
But SN and her lawyer fought on. They went to the Court of Appeal.
Our country has the highest reported rate of intimate partner violence in the developed world and the law designed to protect women and children has been wrongly interpreted for two decades.
Three judges heard the appeal and their decision was delivered by Justice Harrison.
He reviewed the physical and psychological abuse suffered by SN. This included two events of body slamming; Mr MN's erratic and explosive temper; swearing and yelling; repeated breaches of the protection order; and the burning of hedge trimmings following an argument.
The Family Court judge looked at each event in isolation, and minimised and excused MN's actions. He found that there had been only one event of psychological abuse and there had been no physical violence.
The Family Court judge said that some actions were explained by the stress of dividing the couple's property and that SN was an "assertive and strong" person who did not need protection. He also said that one violent event had occurred "a considerable period ago" and that MN was well-regarded by his employer.
The Court of Appeal ruled that the Family Court judge was utterly wrong in his interpretation of the law.
Justice Harrison said that the words of the Domestic Violence Act were "clear and unambiguous". The law required access to the court to be "as speedy, inexpensive and simple as is consistent with justice".
The Court of Appeal said that a single act could amount to domestic violence. That is what the act very plainly says, but this clear statement has all-too-often been disregarded by Family Court judges.
What is crucial about the Court of Appeal's decision is its statement that the pattern of behaviour should be looked at.
This is vital in domestic violence, as there is generally an ongoing sequence of verbal and physical abuse.
The Court of Appeal criticised the Family Court judge's approach of assessing each event separately and concluded that MN's behaviour was "plainly abusive".
Justice Harrison listed the irrelevant considerations taken into account by the Family Court judge and said that the Family Court must "focus on the effect of offending behaviour rather than speculate on its cause".
The Court of Appeal held that the Family Court had set an unacceptably high threshold for behaviour to qualify as physical or psychological abuse. The Family Court judge had failed to address the mandatory consideration of whether MN's behaviour formed a pattern against which SN needed protection.
The Court of Appeal granted SN's appeal and ordered that a protection order be made to take immediate effect.
I and other anti-domestic violence campaigners have waited years for this judgment. What is needed now is for every Family Court judge to read it thoroughly and start applying the clear words of the Domestic Violence Act in the way they were intended to protect women and children.
The Court of Appeal decision spells that out clearly and tells the Family Court how to get it right from now on.

Hi, I am Morgan and I'm a 23 year old female living in a pretty big city in the USA. I spend my time going to coffee shops, movies, breweries, and new restaurants/shops around town. I work in a hospital and enjoy cooking, going to concerts, and hanging out with my friends.
Looking for someone from another country to just talk about their lives with me and for me to do the same. I'd like someone who wants to send little trinkets or care packages once we become friends because I love things from different cultures and countries. No one from USA, ages 20- 30 please.


Among Freud's discoveries, none has proved more theoretically valid or clinically productive than his demonstration that humans regularly and inevitably repeat with the analyst patterns of relationship, fantasy, and conflict experienced in their childhood. Transference phenomenon and its analysis in therapy is the cornerstone for much psychoanalytic work. It's crucial importance has been and continues to be a matter of debate among psychoanalysts.
"Essential Papers on Transference" presents the central papers on the subject of transference from Freud's time to our own. Although many reflect viewpoints within the psychoanalytic mainstream, efforts have been made to be as inclusive as possible; thus neo-Freudian, Kohutian, and Lacanian statements are represented. The book underscores the fact that the meaning, the therapeutic use, and even the theoretical explanation of transference and transference phenomena have undergone significant changes over the years.


ASP.NET data-bound Web server controls provide a user interface (UI) for a data source representing a collection of records or items. The GridView Web Server Control Overview, DataList Web Server Control Overview, and Repeater Web Server Control Overview server controls are examples of data-bound Web server controls. For more information about data-bound controls included with ASP.NET, see Data-Bound Web Server Controls.
In ASP.NET version 2.0, a new data source model enables you to bind data-bound controls to source controls, permitting common data operations — such as paging, sorting, and deleting — to be moved out of the data-bound control itself. This model yields a more flexible data-bound control for page developers and increases the level of reusability.
This topic introduces the basic steps that are required to implement a custom ASP.NET 2.0 data-bound server control. For more information about the general architecture and implementations of custom controls, see Developing Custom ASP.NET Server Controls and Walkthrough: Developing and Using a Custom Web Server Control. For more information about developing ASP.NET 1.1 compatible data-bound controls, see Developing Custom Data-Bound Web Server Controls for ASP.NET 1.1 and Walkthrough: Creating a Custom Data-Bound ASP.NET Web Control for ASP.NET 1.1. For more information about data source controls, see Data Source Controls Overview.
Before creating your own custom data-bound control, review the capabilities of the data-bound controls already provided with ASP.NET. Existing controls might meet your needs, or you might decide to create a custom control that extends an existing control which already provides many of the features you need. For more information about data-bound controls provided with ASP.NET see, Data-Bound Web Server Controls.
Your particular needs require custom UI, custom data-sorting features, or custom data-editing features that are not available in existing data-bound controls.
You want to create a custom data-bound control that that is pre-compiled and redistributable.
You want to extend the features of a data-bound control that is already provided with ASP.NET.
You want to create a data-bound control with a custom designer that fits your specific needs.
Data source support for the IDataSource interface and its related DataSourceView class, which provides named views of data, the ability to query the types of operations supported by the data store, and on-demand data loading functionality.
Data source support for the generic IEnumerable or IListSource interfaces.
Support for data-binding expressions, which enables page developers to create bindings between an exposed, specially marked property of your control and a data source. For more information about data-binding expressions, see Data-Binding Expressions Overview.
Support for automatic data binding that invokes data-binding logic as late as possible during the page life cycle and only when needed, rather than on each postback. After a page performs the first data-binding request, subsequent requests attempt to retrieve the data from view state. This enhances performance by avoiding the need to reconnect to the data source on every request.
There are design-time features available to all Web server controls that you might want to consider for your custom data-bound control. You can create a designer class and control templates for your custom control. These features are invoked when your control is used at design time on a visual design surface, such as Design view in Visual Studio.
Creating a control designer can greatly increase your custom control's usability at design time by providing a design-time interface that enables page developers to customize control properties. For an overview of ASP.NET control designers, see ASP.NET Control Designers Overview. For examples, see HierarchicalDataBoundControlDesigner and Walkthrough: Creating a Basic Control Designer for a Web Server Control.
By creating a templated control, you provide page developers the flexibility to specify the controls and markup that define control's user interface. For an example of a custom templated control, see Templated Server Control Example.
The following table summarizes the steps that are specific to implementing a custom data-bound server control in ASP.NET 2.0. After the table, you will find more detailed information about each of the implementation steps.
Choose a data-bound control base class.
Extend an existing data-bound control class that already provides many of the features you need, or derive from one of the base data-bound control classes.
Configure your custom control to expose data-binding properties that are in addition to the minimum required data-binding properties exposed by base data-bound control classes.
Override the PerformSelect method of the base data-bound control class.
Call the Select method of the DataSourceView object to initiate data retrieval and specify the callback method that will receive the data.
Provide the callback method that you specified as a parameter in the Select method. The callback method must have a single parameter of type IEnumerable to receive the data. If any processing of the data is required by your control, it should occur within this callback method.
Call the PerformDataBinding method to allow any other code relying on this method to execute.
Enumerate through the data collection and create any child controls that will represent the data in the UI display.
Control developers can extend one of the available data-bound control base classes to create a custom data-bound control. The following table provides a list of data-bound base classes that are available in ASP.NET 2.0. Review the descriptions of each class and then determine which base class best fits the requirements of your custom data-bound control. For more detailed information about each base class for data-bound controls and implementation examples, see the reference documentation for each class. For more information about data-bound controls provided by ASP.NET, see Data-Bound Web Server Controls.
This is the base class for all data-bound controls, which performs the data binding and validation of any bound data.
Provides basic implementation shared by all data-bound controls.
Contains the logic to communicate with data source controls and data containers.
Serves as the basis for data-bound controls, such as TreeView and ListControl.
This is the base class for list controls and extends the DataBoundControl class. It provides an Items collection and advanced layout rendering capabilities.
Implements the typical code required by composite controls, including the code that restores the control's child control hierarchy from view state after a postback is made.
Binds to an IEnumerable data source and enumerates the data to build a control tree.
Serves as the basis for data-bound controls, such as GridView and DetailsView.
This is the base class for controls that display their data in hierarchical form. It serves as the basis for data-bound tree-based controls, such as TreeView and Menu.
The base data-bound control classes already provide the exposed data-binding properties needed to enable a page developer to bind a data source to a control. No additional work is needed on the part of the control author. By deriving from DataBoundControl, for example, a custom control inherits three exposed data-binding properties: DataSourceID, DataSource, and DataMember. A page developer can then specify the source of the data to which the control will bind by setting the value of either the DataSource or the DataSourceID properties.
The DataSourceID property enables the page developer to specify the ID of a control that represents the data source from which the data-bound control retrieves its data.
An object that implements the IEnumerable interface, such as an Array, ArrayList, or Hashtable object.
An object that implements the IListSource interface, such as a DataSet object.
Additional data-binding properties, such as the DataMember property, allow the page developer to specify the portion of the data collection to which the control should bind.
For more information about the exposed data-binding properties provided by each data-bound control class or data-bound base class, see the reference documentation for each class.
When exposing your own custom data-binding properties in a custom control or overriding existing data-binding properties, you should call the OnDataPropertyChanged method if the control has already been initialized. This forces the data-bound control to rebind the data so it can use the new data-binding property setting.
The following code example shows a property that belongs to a derived data-bound control class. The example demonstrates how a data-bound control can call the OnDataPropertyChanged method if a property that identifies a data source is changed after the data-bound control is initialized.
Data retrieval is initiated within an override of the PerformSelect method inherited by your control's base data-bound control. Within this override you call to retrieve the data and specify a callback method that will handle the data once it is returned.
Determine if the page developer used the DataSource property or the DataSourceID property to set the data to be bound to the control. This is done by verifying the IsBoundUsingDataSourceID property. For example, a false setting for the IsBoundUsingDataSourceID property indicates that the DataSource property was used to specify the data source.
If the page developer set the DataSource property, then an extra step is required: Call the OnDataBinding method.
Call the GetData method to retrieve the DataSourceView object associated with the data-bound control.
Call the Select method of the retrieved DataSourceView to initiate data retrieval and specify the callback method that will handle the retrieved data. The Select method operates asynchronously, so other processing is allowed while the data is being retrieved.
Indicate the completion of the PerformSelect tasks by setting the RequiresDataBinding property to false and then calling the MarkAsDataBound method.
The following code example illustrates the preceding data-retrieval tasks as completed within an override of the PerformSelect method.
' databinding statement is evaluated before the call to GetData.
' the IDataSource associated with the data-bound control.
' The PerformDataBinding method has completed.
' Raise the DataBound event.
// databinding statement is evaluated before the call to GetData.
// the IDataSource associated with the data-bound control.
// The PerformDataBinding method has completed.
// Raise the DataBound event.
Create your own callback method to accept the retrieved data. This is the callback method you specified when the Select method was called within the override of the PerformSelect method. The callback method is required to contain only a single parameter of the type IEnumerable. In your callback method you can do any processing of the returned data, if required by your control. As a last step, call the PerformDataBinding method.
The following code example illustrates a callback method that has a parameter of type IEnumerable and calls the PerformDataBinding method.
' called in the PerformSelect method.
' retrievedData collection to elements of the data-bound control.
// called in the PerformSelect method.
// retrievedData collection to elements of the data-bound control.
Within an override of the PerformDataBinding method, you create the child controls that will represent the data. The data collection is enumerated, and the child controls are created and their properties set based on each data item. By adding the new child controls to the control's Controls collection, the child controls will be rendered for you. The control hierarchy renders during the control's inherited Render method. You might choose to override the Render method to do special rendering required by your custom control, such as including additional HTML elements or special rendering for display during design mode.
Enumerate through the data collection and create any child controls that will represent the data in the UI display. Add each child control to the control's collection by calling the control's Add method.
The following code example illustrates overriding the PerformDataBinding method. The PerformDataBinding method is called to allow any other code relying on this method to execute. The data collection is enumerated and child controls are created to represent the data in the UI display.
' from that field, otherwise get the data from the first field.
// from that field, otherwise get the data from the first field.

Q: How can I write summary for a @helper? I used to have a HtmlHelper written in C# code.  Instead of it, I just created a cool Razor @helper and put it in my App_Code folder!
My HtmlHelper function had a summary:
/// <summary>Html Helper for such and such bla..</summary>
/// <param name="param1">The bla bla param</param>
/// <param name="param2">Param2, more bla...</param>

so that when a developer is using this Helper, he gets intellisense.  Is there a way to do this for my @helper?

A: The answer is that this is probably not possible with the current version of razor.
Thinking about it a bit more would also suggest that it will not be a feature that will be added, as razor is about less syntax (terseness) and adding summary comments would certainly not help with that goal. The fact that you can have a traditional helper with summary means that there is a way to get helpers with summary comments, so not a show stopper for razor either.
I am sure that if this was possible, the gu would have blogged it.
I like the idea though - why not suggest it in a comment to him?
