Celtic Diary Friday March 31: Anyone Will Do.
The list of experts hauled in by the Scottish sports Media grows almost hourly.
James Corden, a fat bloke who does adverts on the telly wants Stuart arnstrong to join West Ham. Fair enough, as long as he stays away from what he thinks is comedy, he can say what he wants.
Quite how it merits a mention in the papers is another question, however.
Having run out of fresh faces to tout Celtic players, the media leapt on this tweet..
James Corden Retweeted Focus on Celtic
I would love
@WestHamUtd to sign this player!!!
Meaning Stuart Armstrong..
Corden, who used to be in alleged comedy Gavin and Stacey, a programme so bad even the pub in Runcorn, where it was filmed, has closed down in embarassment, has sen his career nosedive, and it seems he wants to take Armstrong down with him by trying to persuade him to join West Ham.
Another z list celebrity, Richard Keys, who was sacked by Sky TV , is the cheerleader for a new Daily Record campaign.
Couldn't agree more with the anti Sky sentiment, its not just the contempot they hold the Scottish game in, but the money they spend in England allows english clubs to plunder, and thus weaken, our own game.
Etims did a wee campaign of similar aim ourselves, after we noticed that indirectly, every time a Celtic palyer went south, it was our own money they were using to buy him.
So the Record deserves praise for highlighting the issue, but Richard Keys ?
Keys left Sky in disgrace after making sexist remarks, and would later run off with one of his daughters pals whilst his wife was having treatment for cancer.
At the very least one would say his views Sky would have a little conflict of interest, whereas most of us would just agree that he's a piece of what doggies leave in the street.
Anxious to play to his new audience, Keys said of the relationship between Sky and Scottish football;
"You can trace it all back to 2002 and the deal Vic Wakeling didn't do with Roger Mitchell who was in charge of the SPL – but who wasn't very good at it.
"Vic put something like £60m on the table and the response was, 'Come back to me when you're serious'. Vic withdrew the offer and overnight he made it clear we were to stop talking about Scottish football on Sky Sports News which was a disgrace in itself.
"The instruction was, 'Scottish football doesn't exist. Shut it down. We don't talk about it, we're not interested in it until they come back to the table on our terms'.
"It really was a disgrace and in my view Scottish football has never recovered. Scottish football has made some extraordinary decisions domestically which I didn't understand but which have had a very detrimental effect on the game. And you know what I'm referring to.
"All these years on still no one can tell me what Rangers were guilty of when they were sent down to the bottom tier.
"The expectation was they would be found guilty but my understanding is they were never convicted of any wrong- doing. But I guess that's another matter entirely."
Keys doesn't understand what wrongdoing is, does he ? either at home or in his professional life.
Keys then went to work for Talkshite radio, and showed us how suited he was for that station with this;
When we went to Talksport I was very much aware that the station was broadcast nationally. But that we only ever talked about English football. I said when I went there I wanted our show to have an audience of over one million. I was told we would never do it.
"So after a week or so I told them I wanted a full set of newspapers delivered every morning, including in particular the Daily Record because I wanted to know what was happening in Scotland.
"The only reason I knew what was happening at Rangers in 2011 was because I started reading the Daily Record. And that's when we started covering it properly.
"Effectively we broke the story in England because no one else down here had been paying attention to what the Record had been writing.
Not many in Scotland pay that much attention either…
"A club the size of Rangers going bust? This was a huge story – it was cataclysmic – but no one in England cared about or even knew about it until TalkSPORT picked it up.
Er, didn't he say something about Rangers being sent to the bottom tier-now he's claiming credit for telling the whole world they went bust.
The man is an imbecile, and clearly hoping for a column in the Record and another shot at being on Talkshite.
Usually we announce this award at the bottom of the page, but for comments such as these, and the hypocrisy within, richard Keys has come from nowhere-and the sooner he returns there- to win this weeks Etims
Knob of the Week
Back at the ranch, and Brendan Rodgers says Scott Brown can play for Scotland if he wants to, showing a huge amount of trust in, and respect for, his captain.
I think there is a genuine love for playing for Scotland for him," "He obviously retired but his loyalty to Gordon and what Gordon has done for him over the years in bringing him here and the relationship that he has, it is totally natural when he seen Gordon not having a good time earlier on in the campaign why he wanted to support him.
" It also typifies the kind of guy he is. He has real old school values and he wanted to help someone that he really respects. So if he wants to play in the game it is absolutely fine, we will find a solution for that.
"He is a really important player for the spirit within the squad. Obviously I have to look at Celtic but we will find a solution that will do both, I am sure."
Brown is mature enough to decide if he's up to it.
And that is pretty much that.
There is a possibility that the league could be won tonight, Aberdeen face Dundee, and a defeat would mean that Sundays game would be more or less all about singing and dancing, whereas should Aberdeen win, we'll have to wait until full time.
I think we'll all have half an eye on tonights game..
You should maybe keep an eye out for anyone in East Kilbride if you are selling a golf club..
A couple of appeals now, one quite serious..
If anyone can help out with the collection on the day please get in touch. Need people from about 12pm to help unload bags from supporters
Whilst its shocking that foodbanks even exist in the twenty first century, the reality is that they need our help.
Do what you can.
It will be appreciated.
Another appeal concerns someone who has entirely different needs..
Instead of a caption competition, lets have some suggestions of suitable songs for the man from the Blue voice, whose real name is actually Les Miserable.

Hope you all had a love filled valentines day. Everyone always says valentines day should be every day when you are with that special person & yes in an ideal world it should be, but lets face it, in reality we have things to do, money to make etc so although I am aware that its just another money making tool, I think its nice to dedicate a day to showing you're loved ones appreciation. That being said this can be done on any day. Anyway, I digress.
I came here to write about love and how strangely beautiful yet scary and painful it can be. Its crazy that no matter how many times our hearts are broken, and as much as we act like we have given up on love, we always give love another chance.
Our generation is very ego driven, men ain't got time for a woman cos they're too busy gettin' money, and girls want to act like cold hearted bxtches cos their hearts have been broken too many times. Trust me I have been through that phase myself, but its' a lie. The truth is that love makes the world go round, and Im not saying that finding a man is the be all and end all, not at all. It could be love within yourself, love for you're family, love in you're friendship groups, etc.
I used to think that love came in the form of butterflies, pain, lust, but over the last few years Ive realised that for me, love is peace. When I feel at peace with someone, when I can sit in silence with him and its not awkward and we don't have to fill the space with empty conversation. When Im in his presence and I feel at home. When I can be myself knowing I wont be judged. This for me is love. Love isn't desperate, it doesn't demand, its not lead by the ego, its lead by the soul. You're soul knows when the love is real and when its just surface based. One thing I do when Im getting to know someone is I mentally strip them of their physical appearance, their labels, their career, their possessions, and I think to myself if we were nothing but two souls, would I still like you? Usually this reveals the answer.
I feel like most of the time love comes our way when we least expect it, at the randomest (probably not a word) most questionable times, but who are we to question Gods timing. One thing I've noted over the years is that love very RARELY comes when we are looking for it, and if it does I think its usually not love. When we seek love its easy to mistake anything for love because we want it so bad we make ourselves believe its love even if it isn't. I find that for me, and most of those around me, love comes when we are not focused on finding it. This might be because desperation isn't exactly attractive.
Trust is probably my biggest setback when it comes to relationships and probably the most important factor in all relationships. Ive realised now that love and trust go hand in hand.
SIDENOTE: I hope im not coming off preachery cos I cant stand a preacher, and I defo am not trying to be one, Im just talking about my own personal experience which is neither right or wrong.
As I was saying though, trust is so important and to invest so much time into something and have ur trust broken can really mess u up, but to let it fuck up anything good thats coming ur way is even worse. Love is truly a blessing and if not then its a lesson, even a bad relationship teaches us what we don't want from the next one. We have to learn to appreciate genuine love because its so so rare. That solid strong foundation that some of our grandparents had is almost unheard of these days. I really admire couples that have been together for ever. Not the ones that are unhappy in their relationships and too scared to leave, but the ones that work on it every single day, the ones that sit down together and discuss their problems and how they can solve them. That is goals. Not matching loubs.
So that being said if you have found love, don't take it for granted. Love is dope. Don't let our fucked up generation tell you otherwise.

I recently received a gift of sourdough starter from a friend. I researched how to make sourdough bread and made two loaves over the course of two days. The first loaf is quite beautiful, the second is in the oven. My other project is a mental exercise, deciding if I want to return to college to become a acupuncturist and oriental medicine expert. The new job is exhausting but a good workout. It is a challenge to learn all the steps of the cottage cleaning dance.

A recent employment law ruling from the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has created quite a bit of buzz among legal observers. In that case, the Ninth Circuit decided that the Fair Labor Standards Act's prohibitions against retaliation were broad enough to allow a dairy worker to sue his employer's outside attorney for contacting immigration enforcement and notifying them about the employee's undocumented status.
Articles Posted in Retaliation
Nurse Allegedly Fired for Sleeping on the Job Unable to Show Termination Was Actually FMLA Retaliation
A considerable variety of employment law cases, especially when the employee's claims relate to discrimination or retaliation, can succeed or fail based upon which side (employee or employer) presents a stronger case about whether the employer's adverse action was legitimate or merely a pretext for engaging in illegal conduct. Many times, this may boil down to other employees working for the same employer and whether or not they qualify as "similarly situated" in relation to the employee who has sued. The case of a nurse from Florida allegedly fired for sleeping on the job offers a real-life example of this.
Eleventh Circuit Ruling Clarifies the Correct FMLA Leave Date that Matters in Retaliation Cases
A nursing facility's activities director got good news from the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals when that court revived his Family and Medical Leave Act lawsuit, concluding that his retaliation claim was sufficient to escape summary judgment. Of larger significance, the 11th Circuit declared for the first time what the proper method was for measuring temporal proximity in circumstantial FMLA retaliation claims, establishing that the proper measure was the gap between the last day of FMLA leave and the date of the adverse employment action.
Employee Allowed to Pursue Claim that Employer Retaliated Against Her for Reporting Sexual Impropriety
While much has been reported in the news recently in terms of bathrooms and civil rights, an Ohio public health agency employee's Title VII lawsuit was a very different kind of bathroom case. The employee, a supervisory-level environmental health and sanitation worker, alleged that she suffered from workplace retaliation after informing office supervisors about an IT worker's alleged misuse of a video camera. The Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals revived that employee's case recently, deciding that the employee's evidence created a possible conclusion that she suffered harm as a result of reporting the male co-worker's alleged acts of sexual impropriety.
Sixth Circuit Revives FMLA Interference Case Against Employer that Delayed Reinstating Employee From Leave
A nurse was able to revive his Family and Medical Leave Act claim against his former employer after the employer failed to reinstate him from leave immediately after he informed the employer of his availability. Since reasonable jurors could disagree regarding whether the employer handled the reinstatement in a way that complied with the law, the nurse's case was not one properly decided by issuing summary judgment, the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals decided.
The Options Tennessee Employers Have When They Detect Perceived FMLA Leave Misuse
It is often a tricky situation for an employer. You've approved an employee's taking a certain amount of time off under the Family and Medical Leave Act, only to discover soon thereafter that your employee wasn't completely honest with you about his leave. When an employer encounters this issue, it is important to understand what the laws says are your options. In a recent case from the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals, that court concluded that an employer couldn't be liable for FMLA retaliation when it forced into retirement an employee whom it deemed to have misused his FMLA leave. The employer won because it had ample proof that the employee had been dishonest, and dishonesty and abuse of FMLA leave were permissible non-discriminatory reasons for the employer's actions.
Sixth Circuit: Employees Can Recover Back Pay in Title VII Cases for Lost Opportunities with Third-Party Employers
A recent Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals case may have resulted in an unfavorable outcome for one professor, but it could also provide benefits for some Tennessee employees pursuing Title VII cases in the future. The court, while rejecting this employee's claim for back pay because it was too speculative, stated that employees could recover back pay from lost employment opportunities from third-party employers as long as the employee proved that she was entitled to the pay and offered sufficient evidence to establish the amount of lost back pay within a "reasonable certainty."
11th Circuit: Lawyer Who Participated in Former Co-Worker's Lawsuit Allowed to Pursue Retaliation Case
Employers have a reasonably wide latitude in the non-discriminatory reasons that they state as bases for terminating employees. That latitude does not, however, extend to punishing an employee for "disruptive conduct" if the conduct in question was testifying on behalf of a co-worker in her Title VII discrimination case. A recent ruling from the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals allowed a terminated employee to pursue his retaliation claim. Testifying in a Title VII case is a protected activity under the law, and punishing him under the guise of "disruptive conduct" for giving unflattering testimony about his employer in his deposition raises a potential issue of retaliation.
Sixth Circuit Rules that Employee's Evidence Raises Potential Claim for Retaliation, But Not Constructive Discharge
An African-American customer service worker who was held back from promotion while other white coworkers with similar performance reviews were promoted had a potential claim for race discrimination and retaliation, according to a recent Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals ruling. The employee did not have a valid claim for constructive discharge, though. The decision is a reminder to Tennessee employees and employers of the higher level of intolerable conditions for a constructive discharge claim as compared to a retaliation claim.
U.S. Supreme Court Decision Offers Extended Filing Time, Enhanced Opportunity to Georgia Employees Facing Discrimination
A significant new ruling issued earlier this month by the U.S. Supreme Court offers very good news for employees who have been the victims of discrimination that was so bad that it ultimately forced them to quit their jobs in order to escape the mistreatment. According to the Court's 7-1 majority, the statute of limitations for pursuing a discrimination claim does not even begin to run until the date the employee resigns, as opposed to the date of the last act of discrimination. This decision delays the start of that limitations period and gives employees in Georgia and across the country an expanded period of time to begin pursuing their claims.
The case leading to this ruling began in a post office in Colorado. Marvin Green, an African-American man, applied to be the postmaster of Englewood, Colorado. Another applicant received the job, and Green launched a claim, alleging that his rejection was the result of racial discrimination. According to Green, his supervisors responded to that action by threatening him with a criminal investigation on the basis of intentionally delaying the mail. Ultimately, the supervisors and Green worked out an agreement to avoid the investigation. Green would either accept a reassignment to the tiny and isolated town of Wamsutter, Wyoming (located four hours northwest of Green's suburban Denver job) and the dramatic pay cut that went with it… or retire.

Chad Oppenheim unveiled first certified "Green Project" in the Philippines, under the county's own new green building rating system, BERDE (Building for Ecologically Responsive Design Excellence). As the first design under the BERDE rating system, the Net Lima, is one of three towers under construction at Net Metropolis. An incredible and sustainable development in the Philippines, this feat is being led by top developer, Net Group.
Due to the intense tropical environment of the Philippines, the Net Lima will showcase several green firsts within the local market. One of the most prominent sustainable features is the building's façade, a combination sun shading and high performance glass curtain that minimizes incident solar heat gain and optimizes natural light while giving occupants a panoramic view of the surrounding countryside.
Compared to USGBC's LEED system, the BERDE responds directly to the ecological needs of Filipinos in their own environment.

So, I will preface this by saying that I wear a medium diaper across the board. My waist is slim enough where it teeters on the upper edge of small for some brands.
Now, I was at CVS, looking to pick up a package of generic diapers for the next few days while I await an order of Abenas to arrive. Now, presently the only thing they have in stock in brief style (With tapes), is large.
In the matters of fitting a medium and wearing a small, it's a problem of how much a diaper can stretch, and how comfortable you may be wearing it (Potential absorbency issues aside). Though, I've never tried wearing a diaper that was larger than my size, and if I have I scarcely recall.
So, I ask, would it be worth it to grab a package of large diapers, though I wear a medium? Would it be downright impractical to useless, or would wearing a larger size actually work for me?

Nicole Kidman Gets Keith Urban's Support Two Days in a Row
Nicole Kidman holds her purse against her chest while exiting the Noel Coward Theatre on Thursday night (October 15) in London, England.
The 48-year-old actress was joined by her husband Keith Urban the night before while leaving the theatre following a performance of her play Photograph 51. It was the second night in a row that he was seen at the show!
Nicole recently opened up to Mail on Sunday about what a perfect night off is like for her.
"I put on my pajamas and I'm like: 'Come on Keith, let's not go out – let's watch a TV show or a movie at home,'" Nicole said.

Mesothelioma is a rare kind of cancer that primarily affects the outer covering of certain organs and cavities of the body. The vast majority of all mesothelioma cases are attributed to asbestos exposure with a mean cancer development period of between 20 and 50 years after the exposure to asbestos. Staging is a very important diagnostic classification in mesothelioma cases as it can provide an understanding of the current status of the cancer.
Like all cancers, doctors need to have a standardized way to communicate with each other the degree to which the mesothelioma has grown, proliferated, or has spread in the body in order to come up with a more definitive treatment plan. Depending on the stage of the mesothelioma, doctors can decide which treatment plan will work best on a particular patient with a particular stage of mesothelioma.
For example, a Stage I mesothelioma can still respond well to surgical methods especially when combined with directed and localized radiation therapy and a more systematic chemotherapeutic approach. This helps ensure better patient outcomes. On the other hand, a Stage IV mesothelioma cannot be treated with surgical or radiation therapies since the cancer cells may have already spread, or metastasized, to different parts of the body. This leads doctors to perform more radical approaches to treatment although the prognosis will remain poor.
As such, as a general rule, the lower the staging of the mesothelioma, the more varied the treatment options, and the better the patient outcomes. Conversely, the higher the staging of the mesothelioma, the more advanced the cancer, and hence, the poorer the prognosis.
Therefore, early mesothelioma detection is vital in order to ensure better patient outcomes. The earlier the mesothelioma is detected, the more treatment options are available. If the patient is healthy enough and the doctors agree that the mesothelioma can be safely resected – or surgically removed – then more aggressive treatments can be performed in order to ensure better patient outcomes and greater survival rates.
Presently, there are three methods used by doctors in the staging of mesothelioma. These include the Brigham Method, the Butchart Method, and the TNM Method. These methods are often used for the staging of pleural mesotheliomas with the Brigham and the TNM being the most commonly used.
The Brigham Method is the easiest to use because it only considers the localization of the primary tumor and whether it has already spread to adjacent lymph nodes. The Brigham Method uses Stage I-IV for its classification system.
In the TNM Method, mesothelioma staging takes into consideration the size and location of the primary tumor (T), the involvement of lymph nodes (N), and whether metastasis has already occurred (M). Each of the letters T, N, and M are given numerical values to describe the severity of the mesothelioma. So mesothelioma staging can be in the form of Stage I, Ia, Ib, II, III, and IV.
The Butchart Method follows the same principles as in the Brigham and TNM systems. The Butchart is the oldest method of staging mesotheliomas, particularly the pleural type.
Generally, Stage I mesothelioma has the highest favorable patient outcomes. Surgery is highly possible and is considered the most effective mesothelioma treatment. The tumor cells have not yet fully spread to more distant areas of the body and are generally considered to be close to the primary mesothelioma tumor. While it is possible that the tumor may have begun spreading into the lining of the diaphragm and the heart, it is nevertheless a lot easier to surgically remove. The challenge, however, is that a person with mesothelioma generally does not have enough manifestations of symptoms that will point to the possibility of mesothelioma at this stage in time. Therefore, diagnosis can only be confirmed if the patient firmly believes he has mesothelioma. With aggressive therapy – a combination of surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy – patients who are diagnosed with Stage I mesothelioma can live up to 21 months after successful treatment. Again, this is just a median life expectancy.
In Stage II mesothelioma, the tumor cell has already begun to spread and clinical manifestations may already be evident. The problem is that many of these symptoms are often interpreted as signs of other health conditions. For example, while dry cough can be a significant sign of pleural mesothelioma, it can also be a sign of other respiratory problems such as bronchitis, pneumonia, or even a simple upper respiratory tract infection. Nevertheless, if the mesothelioma is diagnosed at this time, surgery remains the best treatment option especially when combined with radiation therapy and chemotherapy. If treated by this time, the prognosis is currently around 19 months.
Once the mesothelioma tumor cell has spread to adjacent or nearby structures on the same side of the body where the primary tumor originates, the patient is said to be in Stage III mesothelioma. Here, the lymph nodes, ribs, esophagus, heart, and the chest wall may already be affected. The clinical manifestations become more aggressive often leading to chest pain and difficult breathing. Unfortunately at this point, many patients can no longer respond well to surgery. Doctors can provide palliative care which is designed to mitigate the associated health problems, particularly pain. In these cases, survival is down to 16 months.
3 out of 10 mesothelioma patients remain undiagnosed by Stage IV where the cancer has already spread throughout the body including the brain, the liver, and the bones leading to the development of other cancers in these areas. The goal of Stage IV mesothelioma therapy is to improve quality of life which includes the provision of optimum comfort through the effective management of pain and other symptoms. Unfortunately, chemotherapy can only prolong the life and relieve the symptoms for several months. Survival dwindles down to not more than 12 months on average.
Mesothelioma is rare yet deadly. Early detection and treatment provide the best hope of survival. Understanding the different stages of mesothelioma can hopefully provide better understanding of treatment options.

Stopped in for pizza recently - got ill after eating a white slice. Sick to my stomach, terrible. The pizza is oily and not good. When you pick up a slice it's supposed to stand straight, not droop. My own fault, but I was starving. I will not be back.

Rydel Lynch and Ellington Ratliff are the cutest couple ever and they have been for quite some time. Obviously, they both are members of R5 and what could be better than traveling the world and sharing the same stage with your significant other? Literally, nothing. So, when is the wedding? Okay, so before we start any crazy rumors here, Rydel and Ellington aren't engaged – just yet. But, that doesn't mean Rydel isn't looking for a proposal.
RELATED: Riker Lynch Predicts the Shocking Future of R5 That Fans Never Expected
Rydel was seen hanging out at the Disney Parks sporting white Minnie Mouse ears with a veil that said 'Just Married.' Hmm, obviously that got everyone's attention! Fans thought we totally missed a wedding. But, she put the rumors to rest with one Instagram post. She captioned the shot, "early bday celebrations! ✨ i keep getting "happy birthdays" & "congratulations" because apparently i have on the wedding mickey ears 😂 i wish ladies & gentlemen... i wish 🙄 lookin at you @ratliffr5 😜 • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • "
RELATED: Rydel Lynch Kisses Her Brother's Rumored Girlfriend
LOL! Okay, so don't freak out Rydel isn't walking down the aisle just yet but it seems like she is ready. Not only that but it's clear that she sees a future with Ellington which is super cute. Only time will tell if Ellington really does propose but we wouldn't be shocked if it happened sooner rather than later. For her to publicly give him a shout out like this totally means that they have talked about the idea of marriage. These two have got our approval for sure!

Vita Sackville-West Quotes About SummerQuotes about: Summer
It always seemed to me that the herbaceous peony is the very epitome of June. Larger than any rose,
it has something of the cabbage rose's voluminous quality; and when it finally drops from the vase, it
sheds its petticoats with a bump on the table, all in an intact heap, much as a rose will suddenly fall,
making us look up from our book or conversation, to notice for one moment the death of what had
still appeared to be a living beauty.
It is a sad moment when the first phlox appears. It is the amber light indicating the end of the great burst of early summer and suggesting that we must now start looking forward to autumn. Not that I have any objection to autumn as a season, full of its own beauty; but I just cannot bear to see another summer go, and I recoil from what the first hint of autumn means.

Weymouth committing suicide, says retail expert
A seaside town in Dorset is "committing suicide" and must improve before it hosts the 2012 Olympic sailing events, according to a retail expert.
Together with Portland, Weymouth is preparing for the events and millions of pounds have been invested in infrastructure, like a new relief road.
But retail and business expert Geoff Burch has criticised the state of its High Street.
The council said there were issues but it was trying to make improvements.
Mr Burch, a commentator and business author, said something needed to be done to stop the decline and revive trade.
In a 2010 edition of BBC South's Inside Out programme, Mr Burch compared Weymouth's High Street with that of Dorchester, 10 miles (16km) away.
'Drooped and withered'
Returning to both towns a year later, Mr Burch noted times were still tough for retailers in Dorchester, but said Weymouth was "looking worse".
Mr Burch said: "It's not changed dramatically, it's just drooped and withered.
"Even the shops that are open, a lot of these shops are in the news for being in trouble.
"When you look up here this is a beautiful street, the architecture is lovely. It's all kind of seasidey and leaning in and lovely.
"Then below it are all these shops: 99p shops, cheap shops, empty shops, and you know what it is? It's a town that's committing suicide."
Weymouth council has blamed shop closures on the economic downturn.
But Mr Burch said: "You can blame it all on economics but the decline started long before the banking crash."
Mr Burch also blamed car parking charges for deterring people from visiting town centres.
'Getting worse'
"It's a nightmare - the council should be paying people to come in," he said.
"It's a nice place, the buildings are beautiful, but you get the feeling the town doesn't make the most of itself and play to its strengths.
"I can see a point where a town centre could lose every shop."
During the Olympics, 60,000 people are expected to visit the town.
"People have got to say, 'Wow, I'm coming back here'. If that's not what they are saying, the money has been wasted."
The new relief road may have made it easier for people to get into Weymouth, "but it's also made it easier for them to leave", he said.
Robin Clark, who owns Meridian Shoes in Weymouth, agreed it was "getting worse".
"There's nothing really happening here. The town is in decline when it really shouldn't be," he said.
"If something isn't done, I don't think there is a future here. It's just going to slide further and further."
Although no more shops have closed in the past year, 16 shops still stand empty in Weymouth.
Ian Doyle, regeneration manager at Weymouth and Portland Borough Council, said the authority was already working on ways to improve the High Street and attract investment.
"It would be ridiculous to stand here and say that everything's fantastic and that the environment is perfect for business," he said.
"I believe it's got so much potential, there's so much we can do working with all the partners here to make it a success for the future."
The full story will be broadcast on Inside Out South on BBC 1 on Monday 13 February at 19:30 GMT. It will also be available afterwards on iPlayer.

.. Add your thoughts/messages in the Forum page ..
Mar 31 Notes
Paes-Rikl moved one point ahead of Bryans to the #2 spot in the team rankings for this year in today's ATP rank lists [I thought they would move to #3 as I said earlier, but I forgot that they would both jump over Llodra-Santoro] .. LP moved up to #13 and Rikl to #10 in the individual ranks .. MB is at #5, as Mirnyi who will again be MB's partner moved two spots up to #4 with his title at Miami ..
The $10K satellite has started in Mumbai and it was a good today today as Rushmi, Sai, Sonal and Megha won their R1 matches .. Megha beat Ankita in a good match .. Will post the draw, as soon as I get hold of it.
Good news from the $15K Doha (Qatar) futures - Rishi Behl qualified in beating Vishal Punna in the Q2, and Jaco Mathew also qualified in .. Vishal then made the main draw as a luckyt loser, ending up with Rishi again in the firt round .. Mustafa Ghouse is the 6th seed there, with a field rather weak for a $15K thanks to the war concerns .. Here are the qualifying scores - [Q1] Rishi Behl d. Abdul Rehman Abdul Moumon (ALG) 60 61 .. [Q2] Rishi Behl d. #1 Vishal Punna, 75 61 .. [Q1] #2 Jaco Mathew - Bye .. [Q2] d. Hicham Karmoussi (MAR), 16 76(0) 61 .. In the main draw, #6 Mustafa Ghouse vs (Q) Musaad Al Jazzaf (KUW) .. (Q) Jaco Mathew vs (Q) Yew Ming Si (MAS) .. Behl vs Punna ..
Mar 29 Note-2
Leander has a really good record in finals his career, but today proved to be an exception .. At the $3M Key Biscayne Masters, [F] #6 L.Paes/ D.Rikl l. #7 R.Federer/ M.Mirnyi, 57 36 .. The match started pretty well for LP-DR, as they broke the other guys in quick order to go up 2-0 .. The problem started at 4-3 when our guys got broken .. Then in the 12th game Federer/Mirnyi had them down 15-40 .. LP-DR saved two set points but fell at AD out .. In the second set they dropped serve in the 4th game to fall 1-3 and could not get back in the match after that .. It did not seem to be a cakewalk for RF-MM, as a few of the games went to deuces but they stayed ahead after the initial hiccup in the first set .. Still, another good outing for Paes and Rikl, as they move to the 3rd spot in team rankings with LP expected to move to top-15 in the next rank list.
At the Kolkata $15K "Exide" ITF futures, the titles went to the same caste of characters as last week .. Mlynarik put an end to Felder's run for his second consecutive title, and Mankad-Uppal stopped Kannan-Ramaswamyu easily for their second doubles title .. They all pick up 18 points each .. See the Kolkata futures page for all results.
The $10K ITF women's satellite in Mumbai starts Monday .. The entry list, qualifying draw, etc are at the forum page .. I will have a results page also, soon.
Mar 29 Note-1
Good and bad news from Pattaya City .. Sanaa Bhambri lost the semfinal at the grade-1 juniors to Sheng-Nan Sun (CHN), 76(5) 26 26 this morning .. Sun is a very good player and so there is nothing really to feel too bad about, for the 15 yr old Sanaa .. Now she can focus on picking up another 30-40 points more in her point total and perhaps even qualifying for the junior grand slams this year itself - that would be terrific .. Now the good news - Somdev Dev Varman and Karan Rastogi won the doubles title there! .. They beat David North/ Fritz Wolmarans (RSA) 64 63 .. Congrats boys!! .. It's great that different players have all got some good wins so far .. It helps the overall morale of the team .. Sanaa, Somdev and Karan leave with coach Vasudev Reddy tomorrow for Manila, where the next week's grade-1 is .. The rest of the team have already gone there, with a couple of parents.
Mar 28 Note-2
Spunky comeback by Paes-Rikl today to get revenge over the Bryan twins, and LP reaches his first masters final since Cincinnati in Aug 2001 .. [SF] #6 L.Paes/ D.Rikl d. #3 B.Bryan/ M.Bryan, 36 76(2) 64 .. I didn't follow the whole match, but LP-DR were in deep trouble at one point, at 36 02 and serving 0-30, in danger of falling to two breaks behind .. They started a comeback there .. They held, but were down 2-4 and 3-5 before forcing a late break in the 10th game, as the Bryans were serving for the match .. Took it to a tiebreaker and LP-DR were all over the Americans to go up 5-2 and win the final two points on serve to even it .. In the 3rd set, they went up in the 5th game by converting their first break chance and held on to that break till the end .. The Bryans did not go down meekly, however .. They fought till the end, taking our guys in the 10th game to three break points and 5 deuces .. Finally LP-DR coverted their 3rd match point to advance to the final .. The win gives LP-DR 350 points each and their team race point tally for the year goes to 235, one point ahead of the Bryans for 3rd spot this year .. LP will move into the top-15 now .. They run into the 7th seeds, Roger Federer (SUI) and Max Mirnyi (BLR) in the title match tomorrow ..
Mar 28 Note-1
LP-DR doubles semifinal got postponed last night due to rain in Miami. Rescheduled for the same time tonight.
Terrific news from Pattaya City today .. Sanaa Bhambri, who turned 15 only this month, pulled off another impressive win to reach her first grade-1 semifinal .. She beat the 10th seed and last week's winner, Montinee Tangphong (THA,32), 64 75 .. She was down 2-4 in the first set and 1-3 in the second - and came back both times .. Back-to-back top-35 wins for her, and that's yet another first for Indians .. Last week Isha reached the semi and now it is Sanaa flying our flag .. Sanaa gets 80 points which will raise her ranking from #92 to about #60 next week .. She now runs into a tough Chinese girl, #71 Sheng-Nan Sun .. Somdev and Karan have reached the doubles final also ..
Here is a roundup of all the matches for Indians at Pattaya City so far. Some had first round byes.

Mar 27 Notes
The SF match for LP-DR today at Miami against the Bryans is scheduled as the featured night match, which should get underway around 9 pm [7.30 am Friday India] .. Come to the chatroom at the forum during the match to follow it point-by-point.
Vijay Kannan went down in three sets today at the India F5 futures QF, that ends the Indians' run in the singles .. See the Kolkata futures page for scores ..
Big upset win for the 15 year old Sanaa Bhambri over the top seed Ryoko Fuda (JPN,10), 75 64 to reach the QF .. Are you kidding me? -- that is the biggest upset by an Indian girl in the juniors EVER, as far as I know .. Wow! .. Such good news usually goes with bad news too - Sania got upset by Yanchong Chen (CHN,74), 61 46 63 .. Karan and Somdev are doing well in doubles, as they reached the SF today.
Mar 26 Notes
Leander and David Rikl continue to cook .. [QF] #6 D.Rikl/ L.Paes d. #2 J.Bjorkman/ T.Woodbridge, 76(6) 76(5) .. This is the second consecutive win over that pair for LP-DR, who had beaten them in a threesetter on the way to the Dubai title .. Now the 4th ranked LP-DR team face the 3rd ranked team of this year, the Bryan twins in the semifinal, in a repeat of the last event at Indian Wells where the Americans beat them 76 63 - so this is revenge time .. Lp-DR can go ahead in team ranking with a win .. The 225 points will move LP up 2-3 spots in doubles rankings, and a win tomorrow will put him inside the top-15 .. Things are looking very good with the Indo-Czech partnership.
At Kolkata, only Vijay Kannan was able to make the QF, as Kamala Kannan went down to last week's winner Mlynarik, and Harsh Mankad went down to Marcel Felder .. The Uruguayan was my dark horse pick for last week, as he was among the top juniors last year (ranked as high as #2 in the world, I believe) - after dropping the first set, HM made a comeback, winning the next set and leading by a break in the 3rd .. I don't know how he lost grip after that and dropped serve every time to lose the match .. See the Kolkata futures page for scores ..
At the Pattaya City ITF grade-1, 13th seed Sanaa Bhambri has also reached the 3rd round, along with Sania .. I believe there was no play today, due to rain.
Mar 25 Notes
I'm back after a two-day sojourn .. Good news from LP-Rikl at the $3M Miami Masters, as they have reached the quarterfinals .. [R1] #6 D.Rikl/ L.Paes d. Petr Pala (CZE)/ David Prinosil (GER) 36 62 76(5) .. [R2] #6 D.Rikl/ L.Paes d. Donald Johnson (USA)/ Rick Leach (USA) 64 76(2) .. They run into #2 Bjorkman-Woodbridge next .. The news was again not good from Mahesh .. [R1] Max Miryni (BLR)/ Roger Federer (SUI) d. Mahesh Bhupathi IND/ Tim Henman (GBR), 46 63 64 .. I believe MB will be playing with Max Mirnyi after the Davis Cup ..
I have added all the result so far from the "Exide" $15K ITF India F5 futures, at the Kolkata futures page .. Three Indians reached the second round today, with Kamala Kannan's big upset of the 4th seed coming as the surprise .. #5 Harsh Mankad, the only seeded Indian, moved on though he got some good resistence from Vinod Sridhar .. Vijay Kannan is again in the R2 .. Manoj Mahadevan played the very talented young qualifier, Marcel Felder (URU) tightly in a three-set loss .. HM will also have his Felder, I expect .. It's a pity that Rohan Bopanna and Sunil Kumar are not there .. Not sure why they are not playing, but I assume there is some odd reason for that - haven't heard from anybody about the reason behind them skipping this week.
In the junior circuit ITF grade-1 in Thailand, Sania Mirza reached the 3rd round, but the other three seeded Indians with R1 byes all went down - Isha, Somdev and Karan .. Details later.
.. Previous notes are at Notes for the week ending on Mar 24 ..
I am getting some inquiries from US college coaches who are interested in Indian junior players .. I would like to be able to contact Indian players (some of the coaches are inquiring about specific names) .. If any of the junior players are reading this, please contact me .. Or if any of the other readers know the contact emails/address for any junior player, let me know .. I would like to have a mailing list where I can post general announcements and inquiries from the coaches too .. Please email me - R.Jayakrishnan.

John Prescott says enterprise zones do not work
The former Deputy Prime Minister Lord Prescott has cast doubt on whether enterprise zones will succeed in bringing new jobs to economically deprived areas.
John Prescott was responsible for regional development in Tony Blair's government and he admits to being sceptical about the new generation of enterprise zones.
Speaking to BBC Look North, Lord Prescott said: "They've been tried before under Thatcher. I didn't think they worked too well.
"They can create jobs, but sometimes firms just move from around the corner into an enterprise zone to get the rates etc. The problem is the government scrapped the regional development agencies, which did very well for Hull."
Welcome jobs
The government has just revealed the latest wave of new enterprise zones - the largest of which will span the Humber.
Business leaders say the Humber Enterprise Zone will create up to 5,000 new jobs in the renewable energy sector - a welcome figure in an area of high unemployment.
Sites in Hull and North Lincolnshire have been earmarked for the manufacture of wind turbines, from where they can be shipped to offshore wind farms in the North Sea.
Engineering giant Siemens has already named Hull as its preferred site for a turbine plant.
Thousands more jobs could also be created by smaller firms which will service the offshore wind industry.
Relevant skills
On a visit to Hull, the Minister for Cities, Greg Clark said:
"People in this area have benefited from skills that are relevant here such as marine engineering and logistics that come with ports operation, so these skills are here and it's very important that people make the most of them."
Companies locating to enterprise zones will benefit from a number of incentives such as tax breaks, business rate discounts, simpler planning rules and the capacity for super-fast broadband.
Expectation is high that these areas can deliver job creation on a grand scale.
Anything less will be seen as a failure.

The excitement on the "New Year – New Me" has finally begun to lose its shine and it is now tax season. And with me being the person making progress to be the person I want to be, I'm determined to be better about this adulting thing. And in my opinion, adults have a savings. My savings has very much short lived for a variety of reasons/excuses. Short term isn't completely terrible but the fact is that even though I have a wonderful significant other, we share portions of our life that do not include a home or bills or finances so all of my life falls on me and while my parents are always willing to help, I just can't do that. So, I've punched some numbers and strategies and put into play some tips that can help build a savings when you're terrible at saving.
*Automatic transfers – I loathe automatic payments but setting up a transfer to go into your savings account every paycheck can take some of the mental stress off. Think about this: $20 a paycheck and if you get paid twice a month, there's $40 a month that can turn into $480 a year. The trick is to leave it there so it's harder to spend and has more time to be there when you really need it, like a tax return. (hint hint)
*Nickname your accounts – Most banks, if not all, have an online option and if they don't, I don't know how you're surviving. But think about this: we are very visual so if your bank allows you to nickname your accounts, then name it. Are you saving for vacation or emergencies or Christmas? Have a plan and having that visual will put that more into perspective when you're tempted to transfer out of it.
*Separate savings account – banks don't have to be the devil and one does not have to be the be-all-end-all to your finances. Think about this: If you get the option for direct deposit through your employer then consider opening a separate savings account at a completely different bank. You'll be able to split your paycheck and build a savings because it's out of site and out of mind, unless you stalk your check stubs. Every paycheck, take out and send $50 of your check to that out-of-the-way account then that's $100 dollars a month and $1200 a year because it's not something you have easy access to for that compulsive purchase.
* Cash route – I don't carry a lot of cash on me because it's usually gone a lot faster that I like. But I also like having a better idea of how much I can spend for lunch, coffee, etc. So if I take out $40 in cash, once it goes from 20's to 10's to 5's, I will use and spend, but once I get down to 1's, it's change that goes into a Jar, a Ziploc bag, box, something where you can just put it in and forget that it's there. An incognito piggy bank so-to-speak. (And hey, pennies add up so give Abe a break and pick him up off the ground)
Different banks will also have different perks depending on the accounts they offer. Maybe look at interest bearing accounts or other bank specific perks. Bank of America has Save the Change and Wells Fargo has the Save As You Go where it's linked to your debit card purchases and a little bit will just go to your savings account anytime you use your card. Again, saving without really feeling or realizing that you are saving. So go to your bank or credit union or whomever helps you with your finances and pick their brain. Find out how they can help you save more because that is kind of their job.
Doing this has helped me save for my trip to Vegas last year, save for Christmas, and save for those times that life happens and I've needed to compensate for other charges that I didn't expect or account for. My accounts are still going up and down a bit more than I'd like but each month I'm seeing progress. And progress is good. Progress is fine. Progress is my friend.

The many hours of meetings resulted in a great weekend..... In addition to giving dance demonstrations, our dancers participated in an evening camp dance on Saturday and acted as villagers during the afternoon skirmishes. Our members strolled through the village, until the first shots rang out at which time all scampered to safety. One "villager" was surprised during a "shave and a haircut" in the Village Barbershop and came running across the meadow to safety with a face full of shaving cream.

#127 – When Keven is Away the Millennials Play
With Captain Kev away, our own Roxy Striar takes the helm of the ship with a little help from Sean "X-Pac" Waltman and the crew! Roxy shares some of her recent struggles with her career and her discontent over not being exactly where she wants to be with acting. She then explains how she was brought back down to Earth when her 92 year-old Grandfather told her his memories of watching his Best Friend get shot during WWII. That would do it. The crew then goes onto talk about a slew of current events including where we're at with the Bachelor In Paradise scandal, The Bill Cosby trial, Otto Warmbier and the results of Carrie Fisher's autopsy. Finally, the crew ends the chat with a discussion of body hair and then whether or not the wedding and baby industry has gone overboard with its ridiculous amounts of parties, pictures and presents. Sean "X-Pac" revals he will NOT be attending Bonjour Juliet's wedding if it's in France. BREAKING NEWS! Will there be a rift between Jules & Pac next week? Stay tuned!

So fresh and new for the season come these super stylish trousers! Just like the classic khakis, these are decorated with an all-over print, but unlike a khaki, they're in a new lightweight fabrication. Made in a 3 ounce microfiber, they're quick drying and totally comfortable even in the hottest weather. These are super for gameday and tailgating! Wait until you make an appearance in these. We think you'll love them!
My favorite pair of GTH pants. These one-of-a-kind pants are a hit at the tailgate or in the classroom.

Timing Dinner Just Right
There are meals that just seem to magically come together. Every dish is ready at the same time and nothing grows cold and needs to be reheated. These perfectly timed meals tend to be crock pot meals or simply meals with just a few ingredients.
Tonight's meal just was not one of those. While the fare was pretty simple, there were many different items going all at once. I was cooking:
- Spaghetti noodles
- Spaghetti sauce
- Turkey meatballs
- Garlic bread
- Chicken Alfredo pasta (from a bag)
- Cut up veggies
- Cut up fruit
While it should have been a pretty simple meal, I still wound up having to keep everything warm while I waited on the garlic bread to finish cooking. I am notoriously impatient with ovens. You know that fine print on the box of anything frozen that says best results if oven is completely preheated? I always ignore it. I know I should wait for the oven to preheat, but it takes forever and I always grow impatient and put the food in the oven early.
This means that the food has to cook longer than the box says, so while I've timed everything to be finished in 20 minutes, it actually isn't finished for 35 minutes. On top of that the box is almost always wrong and things take longer to cook than the box says.
I think in the future, I'll just cook one pot meals. That should solve all my problems. Do you think my family will mind if I rotate pot roast, crock pot chicken and chili every three days?

To remember the night, the dads each gave their daughters a bracelet. The fathers took home a picture frame and photo.

Michael Griffiths has almost certainly coached his last game at Coleambally, admitting he's unlikely to be at the helm again next season.
A quad injury combined with work commitments in Melbourne will prevent Griffiths making the trip to Temora for the Blues' final game on Saturday.
He said he hasn't made any plans for next year but isn't ruling out a return.
"I haven't spoken to the club about anything but it would be hard to coach given I'll be probably working in Melbourne," Griffiths said.
"Playing wise if they want me around I'd like to think I could probably play.
"The coaching side of it, I'd be happy to do the best thing for the club and if that means they've got to go elsewhere, that's fine with me.
"I'd prefer to see Coly winning with another guy coaching and me playing if that happens to be."
The Blues are coming off their 13th loss of the season, a 90-point thrashing at the hands of CSU.
After a season of injuries, they had only half-a-dozen players from last year's grand final side on the field.
But it was only four weeks ago that they knocked off joint competition leaders North Wagga.
"Obviously things didn't go too much to plan this year," Griffiths said.
"I'm keen to be around because I know what we could've done if we had a full list and that sort of sits in my guts a fair bit.
"But it wasn't to be this year."
Assistant coach Tom Groves will take the reins against Temora on Saturday.
