Risk Assessment
Slight slowdown subject to a Brexit deal
The magnitude of the slowdown in growth in 2019 will depend on the terms of Brexit. At the beginning of January 2019, these remained uncertain, with Parliament preparing to vote on the agreement presented by the government. If approved, the UK will leave the EU at the end of March 2019. If rejected, Prime Minister Theresa May could try to continue negotiations with the EU, resign, or face a vote of no confidence from the opposition (Labour). The latter two scenarios would lead to new elections. If necessary, the UK's withdrawal from the EU could be delayed, in order to avoid a no-deal Brexit while elections with an uncertain outcome are being held. Labour, although torn between backing a second referendum or negotiating a permanent customs union with the EU, could then succeed. While a no-deal Brexit scenario in March 2019 – which would severely curtail activity – is unlikely, it cannot be entirely ruled out. Persistent uncertainty will be a key factor in the recovery of business investment, which was already affected in 2018. Investment in equipment and construction alike will remain sluggish due to higher credit costs, as the key interest rate is gradually increased (+0.25 point hike per year since 2017, with the same expected in 2019). In addition, even in the event of a Brexit agreement, uncertainties about the future trade relationship with the EU will further hinder the development of production capacity, including value chains. At the same time, household consumption is expected to slow slightly due to less dynamic job creation and low real wage growth, even though inflationary pressures are set to ease in line with the stabilisation of oil prices. Moreover, given their low level of confidence, households are likely to rebuild their savings after significantly reducing them in recent years (4.4% of disposable income in mid-2018 compared with 9.2% in 2015). However, subject to approval of the 2019 budget, household consumption will be supported from April onwards by the 4.9% increase in the minimum wage, which will affect almost 10% of employees, and by the 5.5% increase in the income tax exemption threshold (up to GBP 12,500 per year). Fiscal policy would be accommodative in 2019 (estimated growth effect of 0.3 percentage point of GDP) with a sharp increase in public spending, particularly in the National Health Service (NHS). Moreover, unless there is a no-deal Brexit, exports should remain resilient despite the slowdown of the main partners (eurozone, China, United States). Nevertheless, with imports set to rebound in 2019, the positive contribution of foreign trade to growth will decline. In the current setting of financial constraints and low household confidence, which is not conducive to major purchases, the automotive sector is expected to remain among the most affected, after recording a 7% drop in new vehicle registrations over the first ten months of 2018 and a 6% decline before that in 2017.
A 2019 draft budget to support growth
According to the draft budget to be voted on in the first quarter of 2019, the government will implement a less restrictive fiscal policy in 2019 to support activity. The new measures include notably a spending increase of GBP 10.9 billion (0.5% of GDP), two thirds of which will be allocated to the NHS, with the remainder going to education, social assistance and defence. On the revenue side, while the main measure concerns raising the thresholds for the first and last income tax brackets (estimated cost of GBP 2.8 billion, or 0.1% of GDP), taxes on fuel and alcoholic beverages will ultimately remain frozen (cost of GBP 1 billion). Consequently, the UK's government deficit will rise again, but will remain well below 3%. The public debt will continue to decline.
While remaining largely in deficit, the current account balance is expected to continue to improve in 2019, despite the widening goods deficit. The latter is not offset by the balance of services, which shows a substantial surplus. As in 2018, the improvement in the current account balance will therefore be driven by the contraction in the income deficit, in connection with the increase in investment income abroad. Despite the uncertainty related to Brexit, the United Kingdom will continue to easily finance its large current account deficit through investment flows.
Complete uncertainty about the Brexit agreement
Since the June 2017 elections, Prime Minister Theresa May has depended on a fragile alliance between her Conservative Party and the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP), a Protestant conservative party from Northern Ireland. After many months of negotiations and dissension within her own government, Mrs May managed to reach an agreement with the EU on the terms of Brexit in November 2018, and finally delayed the Parliamentary vote until mid-January 2019, in anticipation of a likely rejection in December. After this delay, Mrs May faced a confidence vote in her own party leadership, which she won (by 200 to 117). While this incident exposed the Conservative Party's division over Brexit, the Labour party has also struggled to articulate a unified strategy behind its leader, Jeremy Corbyn. In early January 2019, ahead of the vote by Parliament, the outcome and duration of negotiations between the UK and the EU remained highly uncertain.

Cheques are frequently used for domestic and international commercial payments, although bills of exchange and letters of credit are preferred for international transactions. Bank transfers – particularly SWIFT transfers − are also often used and are viewed as a fast and reliable method of payment. Direct Debits and Standing orders are also recognised as practical solutions for making regular or anticipated payments and are particularly widely used in domestic transactions. It is acceptable to issue invoices both before and after the supply of goods or services.
Debt collection
Amicable phase
The debt collection process usually begins with the debtor being sent a demand for payment, followed by a series of further written correspondence, telephone calls and (if the value of the debt permits), personal visits and debtor meetings. The collection process has been designed as a progression of stages, beginning with an amicable (pre-legal) collection phase and escalating up to litigation, should the debtor fail to meet his obligations.
Legal proceedings
The County Court only has civil jurisdiction. Judges handle claims for debt collection, personal injury, breach of contract concerning goods or property, land recovery and family issues (such as divorce and adoption). Cases valued at less than GBP 25,000 (or under GBP 50,000 for personal injury cases) must have their first hearing in the county court.
The High Court is based in London, but also has provincial districts known as "District Registries" all over England and Wales. It has three divisions: the Queen's Bench Division, the Chancery Division, and the Family Division.
The Court of Appeal has two divisions – the Civil Division and the Criminal Division.
The Supreme Court is composed of a president, a deputy president, and twelve professional justices.
Fast-track proceedings (Summary Judgments)
In order to apply for a summary judgment, the claimant must obtain an Application Notice Form from the court. This should be supported by a Statement in which the claimant sets out why he believes that summary judgment should be given − either because the defendant has no real prospect of successfully defending the claim, or because there is no reason why the case should be decided by a full trial.
A copy of this statement is served on the opponent seven days before the summary judgment hearing. The opponent also has the opportunity of presenting a statement, but this must be sent no later than three days before the hearing. The claimant cannot apply for summary judgment until the debtor has either returned an acknowledgment of service form, or has filed a defence. If the court agrees with the claimant, it will return a favourable judgment. The application will be dismissed if the court does not agree with theclaimant.
Ordinary proceedings
There are now identical procedures and jurisdictions for the County Court and the High Court. A number of litigation "tracks" have been created, each with their own procedural timetables. Claims are allocated to a track by a procedural judge, according to their monetary value. There are transaction processes that need to be followed before initiating a court action. These processes have been designed to encourage the parties concerned to settle disputes without the need for court proceedings, thus minimising costs and courttime.
Proceedings formally commence when the claimant (formerly "the plaintiff") files a Claim Form with the County Court or the High Court. Full details of the complaint are set out in the Particulars of Claim, which is usually a separate document which supports the Claim Form. The Claim Form must be served on the defendant by the court, or by the claimant. The defendant can then respond to the claim form within 14 days of service. A time extension of 28 days is agreed for the debtor to file a defence and/or a counter-claim. Once these formal documents have been exchanged, the court orders both parties to complete an "Allocation Questionnaire".
Freezing order (formerly Mareva Injunction)
A freezing order (or freezing injunction) is a special interim order which prevents the defendant from disposing of assets or removing them from the country. One of the conditions attached to the granting of such an order is often that the applicant will pay full costs to the person against whom it was made, if it turns out to be inappropriate. A typical commercial dispute can take 18-24 months to reach a judgment, starting from the time legal action is first initiated.
Enforcement of a Legal Decision
A number of enforcement mechanisms are available. These include the Warrant of Execution (which allows a County Court Bailiff to request payment from the debtor) and the Writ of Fieri Facias for debts exceeding GBP 600, under which a High Court Enforcement Officer can make a levy on goods to the equivalent value of the judgment debt (for subsequent sale at auction and offsetting against the amount due).
As a member of the European Union, the UK has adopted several enforcement mechanisms for decisions rendered in other EU countries. These include EU payment orders which are directly enforceable in domestic courts and the European Enforcement Order, for undisputed claims. Judgments issued in non-EU countries are recognised and enforced if the issuing country has an agreement with the UK. If no such agreement is in place, an exequatur procedure is provided by English Private International Law.
Insolvency Proceedings
Administration is intended as a rescue mechanism which enables companies (wherever possible) to continue with their business operations. The procedure is initiated either by applying to the court for an administration order, or by filing papers with the court documenting the out-of-court appointment of an administrator.
Company Voluntary Arrangement (CVA)
The CVA is an informal but binding agreement, between a company and its unsecured creditors, in which the company's debts are renegotiated. It can be used to avoid or support other insolvency procedures, such as administration or liquidation. It provides for a restructuring plan which imposes the support of dissenting creditors.
Creditor's Scheme of Arrangement
The Creditor's Scheme of Arrangement is a court-approved compromise or arrangement, between a corporate debtor and all classes of its creditors, for the reorganisation or rescheduling of its debts. It is not an insolvency procedure and does not include a moratorium on creditor action. It can, however, be implemented in conjunction with formal insolvency proceedings, (administration or liquidation). It can also be implemented on a standalone basis by the debtor company itself.
There are three types of receivers. The first of these is a receiver appointed with statutory powers. The second type of receiver is one who is appointed under the terms of a fixed charge or a security trust deed. The third category is an administrator (who is appointed under the terms of a floating charge over all, or a substantial share, of the debtor company's property.
A company can enter voluntary or compulsory liquidation. Voluntary liquidations can be either a "members' voluntary liquidation" or a "creditors' voluntary liquidation". Both of these proceedings are initiated by the company itself, by passing a resolution during a meeting of members. The company then ceases trading and a liquidator collects the company's assets and distributes the benefits to the creditors so as to satisfy, as far as possible, the company's liabilities.

Ontario's Climate Change Action Plan Focuses on Electric Vehicles
Published: 15-Jun-2016
By Beth Kelly
In what's proving to be a somewhat controversial move, the government of Ontario has developed a Climate Change Action Plan that contains provisions to cut down on greenhouse gas pollution. It calls for spending billions in broad areas of the economy, including the transportation industry, home heating and construction, and the money for these proposals will come from a new cap-and-trade program for carbon emissions that will see the province join a continent-wide marketplace with Quebec and California. As a major component of this plan, significant resources will be directed towards promotion of the manufacture and sale of electric vehicles.
According to a study from Energy Companies Alberta, the 119 TWh provided by gasoline and used for personal transportation in Ontario in 2006 could have been entirely replaced by 28 TWh of electricity produced in renewable power plants if all the vehicles were powered by batteries. This means that if that plan works, more widespread EV adoption and use could be the linchpin for reducing carbon emissions by orders of magnitude.
The province of Ontario estimates that the revenues generated from cap-and-trade auctions will amount to some $1.9 billion annually. It will use these funds to implement the measures indicated in the Climate Change Action Plan. Detailed spending numbers have been released for the period 2017 – 2021 even though the plan also contains long-term goals for the more distant future.
The goal is for EVs to account for 5 percent of vehicle sales in Ontario by 2020 and 12 percent by 2025. By 2024, the province hopes that every multi-vehicle household will possess at least one EV. Current sales of these battery-powered automobiles represent less than 1 percent of all new vehicles sold. To hit its ambitious targets, the province is devoting $285 million over a four-year period to encourage people to buy electric automobiles.
Consumers purchasing a new EV will be entitled to a rebate of up to $14,000 along with a further $1,000 for the installation of a home charging station. The province will waive its portion of the HST tax on such purchases, and it will negotiate with the federal government to eliminate buyers' HST tax liability altogether. People who own old, gas-guzzling automobiles will get money to trade them in for electric models. Charging infrastructure will be built across the province, and access will be free of charge.
In addition to the projected $285 million to be spent on these provisions, a further $140 million will go towards the establishment of a research center at a major Canadian university to develop new green vehicle tech. Many world opinion leaders and philanthropists have already expressed interest in funding clean-energy research. There's no reason why Canada can't partner with them in these efforts.
Ontario already has a program in place to motivate drivers to buy battery-run cars, but the results have been less than stellar. Launched six years ago, this initiative was recently beefed up to permit rebates of up to $10,000 on a qualifying EV purchase. Nevertheless, there were only an estimated 5,800 electric vehicles on the road in Ontario as of February 2016. Some contend that electric vehicles are currently not competitive with regular automobiles because of limited range and high cost, and they say that the new rebates will not be enough to overcome these drawbacks.
The auto industry was worried that it would be mandated to produce a certain quantity of EVs each year, many of which would then sit in lots unsold. However, the province has indicated that it will not be targeting manufacturers or dealers with onerous regulations or requirements. The thrust of its activities will be geared towards rewarding purchasers. The Canadian Vehicle Manufacturers' Association and the Ontario Trucking Association have expressed approval of the province's plan.
Liberals welcome the vision contained in the Climate Change Action Plan developed under the leadership of Premier Kathleen Wynne. However, Progressive Conservatives criticize the costs involved, which are projected to be around $7 billion over four years and perhaps as high as $8.3 billion. The Green Party thinks that the proposals are a good idea but feel that more work needs to be done to close up loopholes that big business could exploit.
Although the optimistic targets for EV ownership contained within Ontario's Climate Change Action Plan might not be reached, it's almost certain that many more such automobiles will be sold in the future than in the past. The installation of the appropriate charging equipment, as provided for in the plan, along with reductions in sticker price and improvements in features will make such cars more competitive with gas-powered vehicles in the coming years, including those used in mass transit.

HENNING, Tenn. — Two gunmen opened fire Monday at a post office in a rural West Tennessee town that was home to "Roots" author Alex Haley, killing two workers during what a survivor and authorities described as an attempted robbery.
The shooting happened Monday morning at the post office in Henning, the Lauderdale County Sheriff's Department said. Officers were searching for a maroon Chevrolet Malibu with two men inside, and no arrests have been made.
District Attorney Mike Dunavant said the case involved "disturbing violence" but did not elaborate.
The post office, which sits between a self-service car wash and a coin-operated laundry called "Mom's" in this town of about 1,200 people, often has residents coming in to pick up their mail. Home delivery isn't provided in Henning, some 45 miles northeast of Memphis.
Beth Barnett, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Postal Service, said that five people usually work in the post office but that she was not sure how many were there at the time of the attack.
Mary Hammock, who works at a nearby market, said Monday afternoon that she had been in the post office about 8:25 a.m. and noticed it was not as loud or busy as normal.
"I knew something didn't feel right because it was real quiet," she said. She returned to the market and heard police sirens about 15 minutes later.
"I might have been real close probably to losing my life," she said.
Around midday, plainclothes investigators were scanning the area along a railroad track that sits behind the post office. Lines of yellow police tape kept people away from the building as a crowd gathered nearby, some sitting in chairs, waiting for more information about what happened.
Crime scene investigation trucks were parked outside, including one from the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.
Ella Holloway, who lives within walking distance of the post office, said she knew one of the women killed. Holloway said she would be greeted by the woman's smile when she went to the post office to buy stamps.
"She was a real nice person," Holloway said.
Tony Burns, a state employee at the Tennessee Capitol in Nashville, said his sister-in-law is a postal service worker who was assigned to the Henning office Monday. She told him that the shooting happened during a robbery attempt, but that she escaped unharmed. The sheriff's department also said earlier in the day that the incident may have been a robbery.
Standing on a street corner near the post office, city resident Emmitt Hennings, a 71-year-old retiree, said it was hard to comprehend what happened.
"I just couldn't believe it, not in this town," Hennings said. "It's too quiet."
Postal officials offered a $25,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction in the case.
The post office is less than a half-mile away from the museum dedicated to the "Roots" author Haley, who died in 1992. The 1976 book won a Pulitzer Prize and was the basis for a top-rated TV series. The story chronicled his family history from Africa to slavery and freedom in the U.S., and it inspired many people to research their own families' roots.

A Saint Patrick's Birthday Party
Ethel turned one today. At the request of the Chicken Whisperer, a.k.a. my six year old daughter Ute, we had a birthday party complete with a vegetable cake - Ute's idea, which she fully executed by herself - and birthday hats - that was my idea. Ethel thought her cake was mighty tasty.
She even offered to share with her buddy, Lucy.
Except for the coveted apple slices.
Check out Fruit Loop in the background, hoping to score a little treat-y.
"Seriously guys, you're gonna share with me, right?"
That's a good birthday girl.
Ethel, that is not how you wear your hat!
That's better.

The A27 at Shoreham has reopened this morning (Sunday August 30) for the first time since the airshow crash last Saturday.
From 6.40am this morning, two lanes have been open on the eastbound carriageway towards Brighton along with one lane on the westbound carriageway.
The other lane of the westbound carriageway remains closed while police investigation work continues on the road verge.
There is a 40mph speed limit in place and the traffic lights at the Sussex Pad junction, which were damaged in the incident, have been removed.
Angie Elliott-Dickson, Highways England Area Manager RCC South, said: "Last weekend's disaster was shocking and tragic, and we at Highways England send our heartfelt condolences to anyone who has been affected.
"We have been working hand in hand with the police and other partners to help them in their vital investigation work and thereafter to repair the road as quickly as possible.
"Police investigation work is likely to continue near the road for some weeks and some delays are likely until we can return the A27 to full capacity.
"I'd like to thank drivers for their patience and understanding at this difficult time."
The road remains closed to pedestrians, equestrians and cyclists, and the bus stop on the westbound carriageway cannot be used.
Access to Coombes Road, Lancing College and Sussex Pad is for residents only and will be under police control.
HGVs wishing to access the airport and businesses via Old Shoreham Road must have prior agreement with the airport and police in advance.
Public access to the airport remains available via the A283 and A259 but with a maximum height limit of 2.1m.

To the lovely folks at MooGoo,
I've never before written to compliment a company's products, but boy does MooGoo deserve it!
I'm 26 years old with extremely sensitive skin and have suffered with sporadic bouts of dermatitis for as long as I can remember. The outbreaks leave me with flaky, itchy, red skin so inflamed that I'm left in constant discomfort. I've been to dermatologists and tried a plethora of creams and cures, but they never work in the long term, and many times have made my skin worse. Besides, I hate the idea of just chucking chemicals on my skin to suppress an outbreak, without actually treating it.
The last outbreak I had was the worst; my skin was so taut and uncomfortable I could barely laugh, raise my eyebrows or open my mouth to eat. It looked bad enough that colleagues asked what happened to my face (embarrassing!) and felt bad enough that even washing it with plain water was irritating. Products I'd had success with in the past weren't helping much, and I was at my wits' end until a nice lady who worked at the chemist suggested MooGoo, even though they didn't stock it!
I Googled your product, liked what I saw and headed to the health food shop on a wing and a prayer because I couldn't wait to get my hands on it. I bought the Milk Wash, Ezcema & Psoriasis Balm and the MSM Soothing Cream. I wasn't expecting miracles but with an important presentation looming at work, I was nearing desperation.
OK, I wasn't expecting too much of a difference, but it sure felt like I got one. The first time I washed my face and applied the balm, my face instantly felt more comfortable. No itching, much less taut. I put on the soothing cream and went to bed. Lo and behold, I woke up with visibly improved skin -- not as red, not as flaky, and definitely not as painful. Within three days, the MooGoo regime had completely cleared up the dermatitis! I have never had such success with a skin cream! Of course, I immediately became devout to my three little go to products, and my skin continued to improve exponentially.
Two months down the track, my skin has never been better. I get compliments all the time! I've not had a dermatitis outbreak since I started using MooGoo, despite the steely cold Autumn weather that would in the past definitely have triggered an outbreak. MooGoo completely cleared up the bits of adult acne I had, and even improved the texture of my skin in terms of scarring and pore size.
I've converted my whole family to MooGoo and sing its praises whenever my skin or skincare in general is brought up. It's sorted out my brother's persistent eczema and worked more effectively than my mum's expensive anti-aging creams.
MooGoo, I cannot thank you enough! You've made an affordable, effective product with a great ethos that works wonders. You've got a lifelong customer in me!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! (Oz,NSW)
I just wanted to give you some feedback on your MSM Soothing Cream.
I bought it to help soothe my skin during an outbreak of pityriasis rosea. I was told there was nothing I could apply to my skin to make the horrid red spots go away. So I decided to buy your MSM cream. Well I'm convinced - [edited due to regulations*] cream is right! After just 3 uses of your MSM cream the scaly dry red patches have almost completely gone! I was not expecting that! I love your conditioner too - awesome products. Thanks MooGoo!

In the 90's trance did a very promising start in Europe, at this moment Trance is one of the most influential music genres in the whole music scene. At the time, many of currently popular groups, artist and titles started incorporate trance sound into their own recordings. Trance was officially not commercial, but the last years trance became more popular and getting more publicity. On TV channels such as MTV, and in the press. Pop and rock stars are starting to collaborate with or even outsource their recordings to trance music composers and producers. Perhaps the most (ambiguous) genre of dance music, the trance music could be described as a melodic more or less freeform style of music. There is no strict description of trance, the most of trance songs characterized as accessible and having epic and rifting qualities. A basic trance song started with a particular melodic or vocal hook, which is given by a presence over a bassline. The beats and the most important moments includes a snare or kick drum. Not all trance songs fits that profile and often times a song's classification as trance has just as much to do with who is playing it as what it sounds like. The best way to generally describe the trance genre is that of dance music based around rifts and anthems, which can be either highly energetic or very chilled out. Trance tracks often intermix major and minor chords to create "epic" sounding, similar to classical organ music. Most trance is built around the 4/4 beat, and a lot of trance can be very uplifting. The most popular trance artist is Dutchmen Armin van Buuren, he travels around the whole world to play his last songs. Other popular trance artist are : DJ Tiesto, Paul van Dyk, Ferry Corsten, Carl Cox, Sander Kleinenberg and Paul Oakenfold.

There are two different surveying systems that have been used in the United States. We refer to them as "metes and bounds," which is used in State Land States, and the "rectangular survey" which is used in Federal Land or Public Domain States.
Prior to the Revolution, land was distributed by the states (State Lands States) and these states surveyed the land using the metes and bounds system. An initial point was stated and then a direction and distance was given to the next point. This continued until the resolution to the starting point. In the process, neighbors are identified and possibly some landmark, such as a river or creek which might allow you to locate the land on a contemporary map.
After the Revolution, the federal government owed all the open land (the Public Domain) previously claimed by England. Because the Continental Congress ran out of money during the War, they promised to compensate servicemen by providing land in lieu of cash. After the War, because they had land, but little money, the government sold land to raise cash (Federal Lands States). Since land was to be auctioned off, it needed to be surveyed and a new system was devised called the Rectangular Survey.
A metes and bounds land description might read as follows:
being in the Town of Stafford in the west part of said township containing twenty acres and is butted and bounded as follows to begin at the Northwest corner of said land at a stake and stone standing by the road then to run east ten degrees north twenty nine rods to a white ash tree marked then to south nineteen degrees east ninety six rods to said Foots own land then to run west as said Foots own land runs fifty two rods to the highway then to run northerly as the road runs to the first mentioned bounds sd land bounds north and east on my own land south on sd Foots own land west on the road or highway..
Since this deed dates to the late 1700s I rather doubt that the white ash tree or the stake and stones are still identifiable. If we can determine the name of the road or highway, we may be able to place it on a map but we would have to obtain a map from the timeframe. From this description, however, we can draw a picture or plat this piece of land using a ruler, protractor and graph paper. We might get some hints from the names of the neighbors and it's important to go back and find where the Grantor (the person selling the land) originally obtained it.
Although it would be easy to say that the thirteen original colonies were the State Land States and the rest of the country was Federal Land States, it's not that easy. Even to assume that states created out of the thirteen colonies are the only State Land States would be misleading...Texas and Hawaii for example are State Land States. When you begin your research you should refer to a reference book such as Ancestry's Red Book or The Source to determine whether your state is a State Land or Federal Land (Public Domain) state. Next, understand where and how the records are kept by that particular state. If you are researching in a state other than where you live, check the Family History Catalog (LDS) for the location of the land records. Many of these records have been microfilmed.
Next week I'll look at Federal or Public Domain States.
Happy Hunting!

Redskins linebacker London Fletcher's streak will live another week.
Fletcher, who was listed as questionable with an ankle injury, will play today and extend his streak of consecutive games played to 237.
That's the word from Redskins coach Mike Shanahan, who told NFL Network's Albert Breer that Fletcher is good to go barring a pregame setback.
Also good to go are cornerback DeAngelo Hall, who was on crutches this week but said he would play, and tackle Trent Williams, who was questionable with a thigh injury.

A few pregame notes:
— Raiders owner Al Davis did not make the trip to Cleveland, with son Mark accompanying his mother, Carole, on the trip. Davis did not travel to last year's season finale in Tampa.
— FB Marcel Reece was activated to take the place of Luke Lawton, who was suspended for violating the NFL's policy on performance enhancing drugs.
— RB Justin Fargas (knee) is inactive, meaning Michael Bush will get a chance to duplicate his 133-yard effort a week ago and will almost certainly end the season as the Raiders leading rusher unless Darren McFadden has an off-the-charts game.
— TE Zach Miller is active, having passed all tests. Other inactives, Bruce Gradkowski, J.P. Losman, Khalif Barnes, Nick Miller, Brandon Myers, Darrius Heyward-Bey, Javon Walker.

General Grievance Procedures
The College has established this General Grievance Procedure to supplement certain policies of the College, such as the College's Policy Against Discrimination and Harassment In Employment Practices and in Student Academic and Campus Life, which designate the General Grievance Procedure as the appropriate process for evaluating allegations of discrimination or harassment (other than sex or gender-based misconduct) against students, faculty, administrative, professional, confidential and unionized employees or visitors to the College. The General Grievance Procedure may, in appropriate situations, also be used to assist in the resolution of grievances not covered by other policies. The Policy does not, however, confer additional rights or responsibilities not otherwise enumerated or established at the College.
Two basic premises underlie the structure of these procedures and are intended to govern their application. First, the end result is not intended to be primarily punishment of the offender or retribution (although in appropriate cases discipline up to and including dismissal may be imposed) but to provide appropriate redress for the victim and to prevent similar incidents in the future. Second, they recognize the unusual sensitivity of certain matters and the additional harm that can be caused to the victim, the alleged offender, and potential witnesses by inappropriate disclosure.
Self Help
An individual who believes that she or he is the subject of discriminatory or harassing behavior may choose to deal with the alleged offender directly through a face to face discussion, a personal telephone conversation, e-mail correspondence, or other written correspondence. In some cases, this approach may resolve the situation; in others, it may be ineffective or place the individual in an uncomfortable, insecure, or compromised position. Under no circumstances should an individual feel pressured to address the alleged offender directly or otherwise handle the matter alone, and a decision not to confront an individual she or he believes to be discriminatory or harassing will not be viewed negatively. If self-help measures prove unsuccessful, an individual may choose to report the situation and pursue other methods of resolution as described in these procedures.
When a report of alleged discrimination or other policy violation is investigated, the Complainant[1], the Respondent[2] and all identified witnesses who are interviewed in the investigation will be notified of the College's expectation of confidentiality/privacy. The College will make all reasonable efforts to maintain the confidentiality/privacy of the parties involved in sex and gender-based misconduct investigations. Breaches of confidentiality/privacy will be reviewed and may be considered a violation of the Policy and may result in additional disciplinary action. Any action that could be deemed retaliatory will be dealt with according to this procedure (see 'Retaliation').
Any attempt by a member of the Barnard College community to penalize, intimidate, or retaliate in any way against a person who makes a report of or who is otherwise involved in an investigation of discrimination or harassment is strictly prohibited. Any person who believes that he or she has been the victim of retaliation for reporting discrimination or harassment or cooperating in an investigation should immediately contact the Adjudicator. Any person who retaliates against a person in response to a report or cooperation in an investigation will be in violation of policy and will be subject to the appropriate discipline process.
Grievance Process
To initiate the grievance process, reports should be brought, in writing, to the appropriate person (each an "Adjudicator") listed below:
For Complaints against …
Complaints should be brought to…
Executive Director for Equity
Barnard College Faculty
Vice Provost
Administrative, Professional, and Unionized Employees
Human Resources representative
Third Parties
Human Resources representative
Initial Inquiry
Following the receipt of a report of policy violation, information will be reviewed by the appropriate adjudicator (listed above) to determine whether a policy may have been violated, or if further inquiry is necessary to determine whether to commence a formal investigation. Where there is allegation of violation of the Policy Against Discrimination and Harassment, the determination of commencement of investigation is made in consultation with the Executive Director for Equity. Initial inquiry may require conversation with the Complainant, Reporting party, potential witnesses, and/or , the Respondent. If formal investigation is to commence the Respondent will be notified (see Investigation & Adjudication below). In cases where this procedure is utilized for investigation of a matter involving an employee (staff or faculty member) as Respondent, the employee's supervisor will be notified of the investigation at the same time the Respondent receives notification.
Vendors or other agencies in contract with the College will be promptly notified if any of their employees are alleged to have violated policy, and such employees may be banned from any or all college properties and may also be subject to action deemed appropriate by their respective employer. Restrictions regarding access to College property or events may also be imposed.
In circumstances where there is insufficient information to pursue further investigation, educational or training efforts may be recommended or implemented.
In cases where mediation is deemed to be an option by the Adjudicator, the parties will be offered the option by the Adjudicator. The parties should not contact each other to discuss mediation. Mediation will be pursued only with the consent of both parties. If the mediation results in a resolution, the formal disciplinary procedure will be concluded and the case will be closed. If the parties are unable to reach a resolution, the disciplinary process will proceed.
The Adjudicator may act as mediator in these cases or may exercise the option to appoint a designee to mediate. The mediator shall promptly (beginning no more than ten (10) business days after designation) meet with the complainant, with the respondent and with such other person(s) as the mediator deems appropriate for the purpose of ascertaining the facts and attempting to resolve the complaint.
The mediator will emphasize fact-finding, mediation and conciliation and will rely on discreet inquiry, persuasion, confidentiality and trust in dealing with complaints that are designated for consideration. A guiding principle shall be to protect the legitimate interests of all parties involved.
Informal Resolution
In instances where it is deemed possible and safe, the College may choose to resolve reports through informal and/or educational means. If a satisfactory resolution is reached through this informal conversation, the matter will be considered completed. If these efforts are unsuccessful, a formal investigation and adjudication process may commence.
Investigation and Adjudication
Following the initial inquiry, if it is determined that there may be a reason to believe that a policy may have been violated, a formal investigation may commence. The person against whom the complaint is made (the "Respondent") will be notified that a report has been filed and he/she will have the opportunity to submit a written statement within five (5) business days. The Respondent and Complainant (the person who has made the complaint or the person for whom a report has been filed) will be given the opportunity to meet separately with the Adjudicator (or designee) to review the appropriate policy and this Grievance Procedure. This meeting will occur no later than ten (10) business days after an investigation is commenced. Both Complainant and Respondent may request to have a support person accompany them to such meetings. A support person is a member of the community, not one in a current formal role (e.g. supervisor, coach, adviser) and is not a witness to or otherwise involved in the matter in question. A support person does not have a participatory role in the process but is merely present for personal support.
The Adjudicator, or an investigator designated by the Adjudicator, will interview the Complainant, Respondent, and as necessary, any witnesses. The Adjudicator will also gather any pertinent evidentiary materials. The Adjudicator or investigator (if applicable) will then prepare a report detailing the results of the investigation including, but not limited to, the relevant content of the interviews and evidentiary materials and information gathered.
Administrative Resolution: If the respondent wishes to accept responsibility for the alleged violation of the relevant policy, s/he may do so at any point during the investigation by contacting the Adjudicator and providing a written statement accepting responsibility. Upon the Adjudicator's receipt of the statement of responsibility the investigation will be stopped and the Adjudicator will alert the respondent of the sanction to be imposed within five (5) business days of receipt of the statement.
Adjudication: In the absence of an administrative resolution, the Adjudicator will prepare a decision, based upon a review of the investigative report and using a preponderance of the evidence, deciding whether there has been a violation of the relevant policy. Preponderance of evidence means that based upon the information provided, a policy violation was more likely than not to have occurred. If an individual is determined to be responsible for policy violation, the Adjudicator will specify the sanction to be imposed. The decision will be rendered and notice of outcome (and sanctions, if applicable) will be conveyed to the respondent within twenty (20) business days of receipt of the initial complaint. If there is a need for delay, including, but not limited to, campus closure for break, such delay will be communicated to both the respondent and complainant.
Range of Sanctions
Faculty, staff or administrators who are found in violation of policy are subject to disciplinary action, with outcome ranging from a warning up to and including discharge. Students are subject to disciplinary action, with outcome ranging from a warning up to and including suspension or expulsion. In any case, educational programming or training may be required. Sanctions may include reassignment of work duties or location; reassignment of class meetings; reassignment of or removal from living accommodations; restrictions on contact with Complainant; access restrictions to College property and/or events.
Appeal to the Provost, Dean of the College or Human Resources
The respondent may request an appeal the decision of the Adjudicator to the appropriate Appeals Officer (or designee) within five (5) business days of notification of the decision. The Appeals Officer will be either the AVP of Human Resources (if the respondent is an employee of Barnard College or a third party), the Provost (if the respondent is a member of the faculty) or the Dean of the College (if the respondent is a student). The three grounds upon which a request for appeal of the decision or sanctions may be made are:
1. The party believes a procedural error occurred, which the party feels may change or affect the outcome of the decision;
2. The party has substantive new evidence that was not available at the time of the investigation and that may change the outcome of the decision;
3. The party feels that the severity of the sanction is inappropriate given the details of the case and believes a lesser sanction to be more appropriate.
Disagreement with the finding or sanctions is not, by itself, grounds for an appeal.
The appeal request should be submitted in writing to the appropriate Appeals Officer. The appropriate Appeals Officer can determine whether a review of the Adjudicator's decision is warranted. If a change in this decision is necessary, the Appeals Officer will review the appeal and Adjudicator's rationale and make a final decision. An appeal outcome may result in no change, an amendment that reduces sanctions, or an amendment that includes greater sanction.
However, in situations where the respondent is a tenured/tenure track faculty member who has been sanctioned with either suspension or dismissal, the respondent has the option to instead appeal the severity of the sanction to the Committee on Grievance in accordance with the Code of Academic Freedom and Tenure.
Appeals will not be reviewed or considered beyond the Appeals Officer (or designee). Appeals decisions will be rendered within ten (10) business days after the receipt of the formal appeal request. The decision on appeal is final.
Time Frames
If the time frames outlined in this procedure cannot be met, the appropriate officer will notify the Complainant and Respondent in writing of the delay and will provide a date by which the appropriate undertaking will be completed.
While the Grievance Procedure is intended to establish guidelines for the proper evaluation of grievances it is sometimes neither possible nor advisable to adhere strictly to such guidelines. Therefore, provided that the parties to a grievance are afforded proper fair process--prior notice of the substance of the grievance, a fair and reasonable opportunity to present evidence and to respond to the grievance, and an opportunity to appeal a decision on the grounds provided herein --reasonable deviations from the process set forth herein shall be permitted
At any time during the Grievance Process, the AVP for Human Resources, Provost or Dean of the College may take interim measures including, but not limited to, reassignment or suspension, if it is determined that circumstances require that such action be taken to protect the safety of individuals or property, or to minimize disruption to the operations of the College.
Policy effective as of August 2011; Modified May 2012; August 2013; August 2014
[1] A Complainant is the individual who files a report or the person who a report is filed on behalf of by a third party.
[2] A Respondent is the person against whom a report has been filed.

Story of the day
'Education of the Senses' by Kathryn Obermaier
Education of the Senses is a series of food inspired pictures by Kathryn Obermaier photographer. As she explains, it evolved from a wet plate workshop she took in NYC in 2010: during the class, she spent a weekend photographing two small eggplants, and felt a chemistry between the complicated photographic process, and the simplicity of the vegetables.

Let the timeless wilderness of the Grand Canyon's North Rim captivate your soul at one-of-a kind Toroweap. Our natural, private Grand Canyon Tours to Toroweap are second to none.
With 3000 vertical feet of air to the river, Toroweap, or Tuweep as it is also known, is unique as the most sheer viewpoint in the Grand Canyon National Park. It rests on a layer of red rock nestled between the towering Parashant cliffs and the abyss of the Grand Canyon. Very recent volcanic activity (geologically speaking) creates a cool backdrop and incites the imagination. Sometimes we are lucky enough to see the rafters go over Lava Falls nearly 2 miles away.
On the busiest days of the year one might see 20 people the whole day. Usually there's few to none. There are no rails, no signs, no pavement, no buses, no commercialism. Tuweep has been featured by National Geographic and Peter Lik and ranks #5 on Trip Advisor for all of Grand Canyon National Park. This is a huge testament of its ability to move people considering only 1 in 10 visit the North Rim, and probably only1 in 10 of them leave the pavement.
On our remote Private Grand Canyon Tours at Tuweep we have a homemade picnic near the rim and take a short but exhilarating hike to the best vantage points. Our experienced Toroweap Tour guides help you shoot those once in a lifetime photographs. For those more adventurous try an overnighter at incredible Toroweap. Be one of the lucky 1% or less!
OUR TOROWEAP TOURS RUN YEAR ROUND (except seasonal closure)
(paved portions of the North Rim are closed October through May).
8 hrs. Adults: $190, Children 15 and under: $95. Minimum $380.
Hiking Difficulty 1-10: 3
Hiking Distances are minimal, but terrain is uneven. Those with physical difficulties can be accommodated.
For more info please read our blog about Toroweap.
For a little more variety on your Private Grand Canyon Tour try the Toroweap Tour with Rock Art Add On.
****Please do not book online if you are a single unless you have consulted us first. We have a two adult passenger minimum. It works much better if you call us or send us an email to discuss your options and what tours are running during your date window.

Sunnybank was built in about 1850 and became the home and practice of Dr Edward Trotter in 1856. Edward had 2 sons, Charles and Robert. The eldest, Charles, took over the practice and ran it until his retirement in 1947 aged 70. He was also the first car owner in Holmfirth, which made home visits much quicker!
Charles' brother, Robert Trotter, was also a medical practitioner and surgeon. Both brothers had much to do with the founding of the Holme Valley Memorial Hospital, initially aiding and nursing First World War victims suffering from shell shock. Robert laid the foundation stone for the hospital and carried on his practice from Sunnybank.
Sunnybank retains most of its original features, including a dispensing room and servants bell (still operational!) in the Guest Lounge and Dining Room.
Set in typical Victorian gardens with beautiful views across the Holme Valley, Sunnybank is well within 10 minutes downhill walking distance to Holmfirth centre but perhaps a little longer on the return uphill journey!
There is ample, free parking within the grounds.

I have been out of town. Now I'm back and ready to get blogging.
I came back to some gorgeous basil that needed trimming. I try not to ever let my herbs bloom. From what I have read, it changes the flavor of the herb. So I keep my basil cut down, which is great because I can eat all that delicious green herb and it keeps the plant producing big leaves. Oh man! It just has to be my favorite herb…EVER!
I love to make many batches of basil pesto and freeze it so I have the fresh taste throughout the winter.
Let's make pesto.
You will need to pinch off all of the basil leaves. Discard the stems or any blossoms.
Wash and dry the Italian parsley and remove the stems as well.
I toast my pine nuts in a skillet over medium-low heat.
Don't leave the pine nuts because they brown very quickly and before you know it they have burned. Remove the pine nuts from the heat and place the in a bowl or on a plate to cool.
Set them aside. You will need them later.
Place the basil leaves and parsley in a metal mesh strainer because we are going to blanch them. Why on earth would I blanch the basil and parsley?? So they keep their bright green color. Have you ever had your pesto turn dark on top? Blanching will prevent that from happening.
Have a large bowl of ice water ready.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
Drop the metal strainer into the boiling water.
Push the herbs down into the water because they will have a tendency to float. Do not leave the herbs in the boiling water for longer than 15 seconds. It's a very quick process.
Remove the basil and parsley from the boiling water and immediately put the strainer into the ice water.
The ice water should cool the herbs almost immediately.
Remove the strainer from the ice water and squeeze out any excess water from the basil and parsley.
Pull out that fabulous food processor that you love and put the blanced herbs into the bowl.
Add the minced garlic…
…toasted pine nuts…
…sea salt…
…freshly ground black pepper…
You will want a good flavored olive oil. Remember garbage in – garbage out!
I really like this brand. I'm sure you have a favorite that you use.
Pour in your favorite Extra-virgin olive oil.
As you can see, all of the ingredients are just layered into the bowl of the food processor.
Give the food processor a good whirl. Process until you reach the consistency that you would like.
Add the grated Parmesan cheese and just pulse to blend.
See how bright and green my pesto is.
This is the consistency that I like my pesto. It's a bit creamy.
This is how I preserve my pesto throughout the winter.
I just add about 1-2 tablespoons into an ice cube tray.
Once the ice cube tray is filled, cover it with plastic wrap and place in the freezer until it is completely frozen.
Remove the ice cube tray from the freezer and just pop out the frozen pesto cubes and place in a zip-lock back then return to the freezer. You can now pull out a few pesto cubes that can be tossed with pasta or added to a sauce or soup.
I love having it available throughout the winter. Especially when I have to pay a fortune for a little box of fresh basil leaves.
Right now I'm going to spread it on some crusty bread. Fabulous.
There you have it! Fresh basil pesto that will stay pretty and green.
Once again, I'm sure you would never ever think about using dry basil or parsley…would you?
Basil Pesto
Bright green pesto made by blanching the basil. Super quick easy basil pesto.
- 3 cups lightly packed fresh basil
- 1 cup lightly packed fresh Italian parsley leaves
- 1/2 cup pure extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon toasted pine nuts
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
- 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Wash and dry the basil and parsley. Place in a wire strainer and set aside.
Prepare a bowl of ice water. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Plunge the strainer with the basil and parsley in it into the boiling water and blanch for 15 seconds. Remove the strainer from the boiling water and plunge into the ice water bath to stop the cooking. Drain immediately, squeeze the herbs dry and place into a bowl of a food processor. Add the oil, pine nuts, garlic, salt, and black pepper. Process until desire consistency. Add the Parmesan cheese and pulse a few times to blend.
Transfer to a bowl and adjust seasonings if you would like. Pesto will keep covered in a refrigerator for 1-2 weeks. Or freeze the pesto.

It's doubtful that anyone in Brush, or Colorado for that matter, can call iconic Academy Award winning actor Jack Nicholson a close friend.
However, Ken Kenny, a former film editor, can say that and then some. He not only attended school in New Jersey with the acclaimed actor, but he also worked with him in Hollywood and even appeared in one of Nicholson's many memorable films – One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.
Kenny said he and Nicholson first met in New Jersey when they were just boys, attending grade school and high school together in the beach town of Manasquan, although Nicholson's family lived in neighboring Spring Lake.
Kenny went on the attend college first in New Jersey and then at Miami University in Florida. There he began working at the university's television station as a film editor on a weekly half-hour show.
Following college, Kenny went to New York City and obtained a job as a film editor at NBC's Huntley-Brinkley Report news program, which ran from 1956 to 1970. Kenny was working there when John F. Kennedy Jr. was assassinated in November of 1963.
He said his most vivid memory of being at NB immediately following the assassination was the incredible amount of work involved in creating the newscasts to the nation.
"We went into work that day and didn't leave there for three days," Kenny said.
As a film editor Kenny said much of the work he did for the Kennedy assassination newscasts entailed gathering up and reviewing all the film and photographs that had ever been shot of Kennedy. He recalled "there was a lot of film" and that "people hadn't seen it all yet."
He said at the time the Kennedys were the most photographed political figures to date and he attributed at least some of it to their youth and good looks and also "because of her" (Jackie Kennedy).
"They were show biz type people and no matter how you photographed them they always came out looking good," he said.
While living in New York City, Kenny married Frances, a dressmaker and designer. He said she used to take him to fashion shows near the Garment District, New York City's fashion center. Kenny said the fashion shows were interesting featuring beautiful women and attended by well-to-do people. He said some of the model's fashions drew applause "which I couldn't understand."
During Kenny's time at NBC News in the 1960s, Nicholson, who was now living in California, approached him about helping him with a film.
"Jack came to see me," Kenny said. "He wanted me to help him with a film he was working on called 'Drive, He Said,' which was about basketball."
He said Nicholson wanted to learn about film editing and was "interested as far as the connection to getting the film on the same day it was shot and getting it on the air that night." Kenny said "Jack wanted to direct the film and he wanted to make sure knew everything there was to know about editing."
Later in the 1960s, while Kenny was still working at NBC, Nicholson brought Kenny the book "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" by author Ken Kesey. Nicholson told Kenny he might buy the screen rights for the book and was interested in doing some screenwriting for the movie.
It would be a few years before the movie was made starring Nicholson. At the end of the 1960s Kenny went to California, arriving when Nicholson's movie "Easy Rider" was wrapping up production.
"It was just being finished and I knew it was going to be a breakthrough film for Jack," Kenny said. "It also changed the way they made films, giving more power that went to the directing part of the film. It altered the way Hollywood films were made, at least slightly."
In the early 1970s, Kenny traveled to Oregon with Nicholson, where "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" was filmed and ended up playing the character Beans Garfield, one of the movie's mental institution patients who Jack Nicholson's character R.P. McMurphy, befriends, along with the other patients.
In the movie, R.P. McMurphy feigns mental illness while in prison in order to avoid his sentence and is then sent to the institution.
"I played a small part in the movie," Kenny said. "After I worked on 'Drive, He Said' I knew that aside from directing, editing is the central part of film. I knew that if you can be there when making the film it can be central for the editing process. He (Nicholson) wanted me to be on the set with him."
Kenny said it took about six months to make the movie, most of which was shot at a state hospital in Salem, Oregon. Some of the hospital's patients were in the movie, which included actors who went on to make a name for themselves, including Danny DeVito and others who were Nicholson's friends.
"Jack knew everybody," Kenny said. "And we had both known DeV#ito as he was from same the area we were from in New Jersey."
Nicholson was a stickler for movie details, according to Kenny who said when they were making "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest," Nicholson would sometimes call him up very early in the morning to go over to the movie before the cast arrived to set up the lights for a particularly important scene. Nicholson would go on to utilize Kenny's advice, assistance and film editing expertise for other movie projects.
"What I used to do with him is work on a film months before the contract for the film," Kenny said. "He would pick out places we would visit where he wanted them (movies) to be shot."
Kenny would help Nicholson edit the movie "The Two Jakes," a sequel to the movie "Chinatown" that was shot in Los Angeles. "Chinatown" is one of Kenny's favorite Nicholson movies, although he said he has a tough time picking just one of his movies because he doesn't "look at the movies as the whole move, but at certain scenes that I remember that he did that I liked."
"Chinatown" was one of Kenny's favorites because "he was so into the character." He said Nicholson would sometimes stay in character for movies even between filming scenes and throughout the day.
Because of that, Kenny said Nicholson told him when he was filming the horror movie "The Shining" – where he played a man who becomes murderous – "you don't want to be around me." He also said when Nicholson was finished filming the movie "he was more exhausted than I had ever seen him."
Kenny also enjoyed socializing with his friend Nicholson in California, attending the Academy Awards ceremony with him and going to Laker's basketball games. He remembers that Nicholson "always had sunglasses on. They were French glasses. I bought a pair too for $120."
During his time in California, Kenny met many actors, including Joan Crawford and John Wayne. He also met Nicholson's then girlfriend and actress Angelica Houston. He said Nicholson really admired Houston's movie making knowledge and family and that "she knew more about movies than he did."
"I really liked her," Kenny said. "I think Jack was in love with her, not that I can speak for Jack."
Kenny said it was Houston who decided her relationship with Jack "wouldn't be a permanent thing" although the pair would remain "really good friends."
Kenny still keeps in touch with Nicholson.
"It's an honor for me to have known Jack," Kenny said. "He is basically a movie icon, even though I've known him since we were kids. He's really dedicated himself to this profession. It's a privilege to know him."
Kenny has resided at Sunset Manor in Brush for the last eight years.
Kenny reflects on his life and famous friend
It's doubtful that anyone in Brush, or Colorado for that matter, can call iconic Academy Award winning actor Jack Nicholson a close friend.

BART's 2015 budget emphasizes safetyWritten by Jenifer Nunez, assistant editor
Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) has passed a Fiscal Year 15 operating and capital budget totaling $1.56 billion that it says prioritizes safety, passenger needs, system reinvestment and on-time performance took effect July 1, 2014.
The budget represents a two percent increase from the previous year and assumes an average weekday ridership of 405,426, up from the FY14 average of 399,146.
"The centerpiece of this budget is the increased investment in safety-related measures for both our riders and our employees," said BART Board President Joel Keller. "This budget will give passengers increased service during the peak Monday-Friday commute and weekends, cleaner and brighter stations, modern signage, better station access and additional secure bike parking. It also continues our dedication to addressing increased capacity while reinvesting in the original aging system."
The budget includes $5.3 million for 40 new positions needed to implement the new trackside safety program. These positions have the added benefit of providing increased maintenance to enhance reliability and passenger safety.
The new safety program will add extra layers of protection for trackside crews during both operating and non-operating hours but will impact passenger service because trains are now required to hold and proceed at reduced speeds when work crews are nearby. To help address this, $1.7 million is being funded late in FY14 for a two-year project to put up fencing and barriers in key areas along the track to protect employees from moving trains as they walk near the track to access equipment, train control rooms or substations.
This fencing will allow trains to continue to run at 70 mph near the fenced off areas and prevent passenger delays. The FY15 budget includes other safety-related projects, such as a safety culture program, software and another two-year capital project for $1.8 million to protect crews working in track areas.
The budget also allocates money for multi-year projects to improve safety, such as subway lighting retrofits, emergency lighting and security projects. As part of BART's federally-funded capital reinvestment program, about $25 million will go toward direct safety-related renovation and repair projects including trackway fall protection, third-rail cover replacement, emergency power and fire safety system renovation, emergency communications and safety improvements for sidewalks, escalators, elevators, and stairs.
Other improvements include $700,000 for a 1.7-percent increase in service by running more long trains during the "shoulders" of the commute period and on the weekends.
The budget includes money to fund BART's top three capital projects: a new fleet of train cars ($51 million in capital funds and another $45 million for the MTC reserve account), a new train control system ($9 million in capital funds) that will allow BART to run more trains more frequently and will improve reliability systemwide and the Hayward Maintenance Complex ($115 million in capital funds) to service the new fleet. An estimated $18.8 million in dedicated revenue collected from the January 2014 fare increase is allocated to these three priority projects as promised by the board to the riders when the inflation-based fare increase program was adopted.
Improvements for passengers include the replacement of wool seats with easier to clean vinyl covers; carpet will be replaced with smooth, easy to clean flooring; better stations and parking improvements.
BART said that despite the continued focus on meeting reinvestment needs of its 41-year-old system there remains a substantial and growing capital deficit. BART has a 10-year renovation need of at least $6.5 billion to maintain its current state of reliability and said major components of our aging infrastructure such as trackways, facilities, stations, and equipment need to be replaced.

Color: Any design with colors all over the place creates too many places for the eye to look. Keep your color design very simple and zen. Looking at the colors shouldn't be jarring or confusing. This isn't to say only use one color, not at all, but try to make sure the ones you use are harmonious. Avoid mixing and matching different saturations of the same color or picking colors that clash with one another.
My rule of thumb: Stick to no more than three base colors and some value variations.
Concept: Your design should have inspiration, even if the inspiration is just your intended character's personality or an interesting object that represents them. Your character could be a bookworm, and that would impact her posture, her clothing, her hairstyle...pretty much everything about her! You can design

Despite all the success Michael Phelps has had in his career, he has always had disdain for the training required.
That didn't stop him from winning eight gold medals at the Beijing Olympics in 2008 to bring his total to 14 overall, but as the 26-year-old Fells Point resident gets older, he is also wiser about keeping ahead of the competition.
After three weeks of altitude training in Colorado, he came down for the Columbus Grand Prix and won all three of his events, capped by Sunday's victory in the 100-meter freestyle at the McCorkle Aquatic Pavilion at Ohio State University.
Just as he told the media before the meet, his efforts are paying dividends.
"Like I said the other day, training does work," he said with a chuckle. "I'm very pleased. The only thing I need to do right now is continue what I'm doing. I can't have any more hiccups.
"The last three weeks we put in some good training and it showed here. Things are heading in the right direction. We just have to keep everything going. If we're able to keep everything going like we've been doing, we're going hopefully to be in good shape."
He had already won the 200 free Friday and Saturday's 200 fly before recording the second-best time in the world this year in the 100 at 48.49 seconds.
Phelps made the turn even with Darian Townsend but pulled away from that point. Nicolas Oliveira (49.37) was second and Townsend third (49.47).
Earlier in the day, Phelps decided not to compete in the 200 backstroke after talking to his coach, Bob Bowman.
"I wanted to swim a good 100 and see where we were," Phelps said.
Phelps was philosophical about not training as hard as he could over the years.
"I knew then, but I made the decision not to [train as hard], and that's the decision I'll have to live with, but right now it's coming down to the end," he said.
Phelps had to share the spotlight on the final night with North Baltimore Aquatic Center teammate and Olympic medalist Allison Schmitt, who defeated a strong field in the women's 100 free.
"I was going in and just sprinting," Schmitt said. "That's not my best event; I guess I can swim it. It's definitely different when you swim the 400 and have to pace yourself. I'm more of a 400 swimmer, so it's easier to bring it back faster."
Schmitt, who was a winner in the 200 and 400 free during the meet, beat three-time Olympic gold medalist Natalie Coughlin. Schmitt swam 54.77, while Coughlin was second at 55.12.
Meanwhile, two-time Olympic medalist Matt Grevers had the second-best 200 backstroke in the world this year (1:57.59) for his first win of the weekend.
In the evening session's first event, Gillian Ryan, also of the North Baltimore Aquatic Club, posted a winning effort of 8:29.25 for the fourth-best women's 800 free in the world and the top American time this year.
Other winners included Jack Hendricks, men's 1,500 free (15:57.42); Townsend, men's 200 (2:00.72); Maria Fernanda Gonzalez Ramirez, women's 200 backstroke (2:10.75).

Exploring Human Dimensions
How can we understand the nature of humanity? How can we affect human health?
Exploring human dimensions cuts across several faculties, schools, and departments at Queen's — from the social sciences and humanities to the health sciences.
In exploring the human mind, we ask profound, fundamentally human questions and develop critical insight into the working of society and culture.
By studying the dynamics of human behaviour, we provide a foundation for exploring the social dimensions of populations and communities and the study of learned systems of understanding.
In our exploration of health, wellness, disease, and aging, increasing emphasis is being given to key and emerging ethical questions that arise in the relationships among life sciences, biotechnology, health, politics, law, and philosophy. These questions have propelled the rise of interdisciplinary research around improving human health and well-being.
Our humanities and social sciences programs, including drama, art, music and cultural studies, explore the nature of human creativity through the examination and analysis of texts, restoration of works of art, critical evaluation of elements of modern culture, theory-informed study of past human activity, and the creation of new knowledge, art, and performance.
Our research spotlights include:
- Saba Farbodkia (Neuroscience) – exploring communication pathways between the brain and external devices
- Lucie Lévesque (Kinesiology and Health Studies) – getting proactive for children's health
- Margaret Little (Gender Studies, Policital Studies) – examining the struggles of Canadian women living in poverty
- Mark Rosenberg (Geography) – investigating relationships between vulnerable populations and access to services
- Wendy Craig (Psychology) – exploring issues of bullying
- Meredith Chivers (Psychology) – exploring gender and sexuality
- Michael Green (Family Medicine) – designing culturally sensitive care
- Armand Ruffo (English) - shedding light on contemporary native issues
- Heather Stuart (Public Health Sciences) – explorings mental health and stigma
- Udo Schuklenk (Philosophy) – navigating the bioethics around end-of-life decision-making
Centres/Institutes focused in this area include: Canadian Frailty Network (CFN), which works to improve the care of seriously ill, elderly patients; The Canadian Institute for Military and Veteran Health Research, which addresses the health requirements of the military, veterans and their families.
Queen's researchers are also examining health and obesity, gender-based violence and HIV/AIDS, health economics, health and social service integration, reproductive and genetic engineering, reproductive ethics and social policy, and health and climate implications of urbanization. The research undertaken in these programs is essential to improving a wide range of aspects of both individual and social health, including that of the world's most vulnerable populations and communities.

Networks of people are all around us. They are the most ubiquitous dimensions of communities and organizations, economies and affiliations.
Networks are boundaryless patterns of connections between and among people. They cross geographical, digital, demographic, ideological, economic, social, and ideological boundaries. Networks intersect and overlap. Everyone on the planet is a member of at least one network and all networks are ultimately connected.
Everyone in a network has three circles of connections. In their first circle are people we are closest to. Second circle people are people we know more casually. Third circle people are people we don't even know exist, but are two steps from us through our first and second circle people.
We can measure growth in networks in several important ways.
The pivotal indicator is the scope of network weaver engagement in networks. The other four indicators are accelerated by the work of network weavers who instigate, facilitate, and enrich connections in networks.
As these indicators increase, the quality and impact of the network grows in ways that benefit the individual members of the network and the network as a dynamic whole.
The evidence indicates that people have measurably better health, work, well-being, optimism, and engagement in their life when they are connected to happier networks.
We can build on these indicators by adding happiness indicators to the mix. We start with the five prime happiness practices that become principles for the articulation of network growth indicators: appreciation, generosity, interest, lightness, and easy.
Here are just a few of many possible measurable happiness indicators in networks.
When we consider the connection rather than the individual as the fundamental unit of networks, we can begin to talk about creating happier connections where these indicators are evident in intention and expression throughout networks. They become principles shaping the critical contributions of network weavers.
As we now know from the research, when connections are happier, people in these connections are more naturally productive, generous, creative, courageous, realistic, passionate, resilient, and healthier. As it turns out, these are also the qualities of strong and growing networks.
The whole thrivancy of networks grows when more people become connected to already happier connections and bring more happiness to the connections they have. This is how happiness scales organically through networks. This is how we move from thinking about growth just in quantities, densities, and reaches of connections to the vibrant and contagious quality of connections that add to the measurable well-being of the network....
