This question already has an answer here:
Is there any common method (usable in practice) for estimating the uplink capacity of switch based on known number of users connected to this switch and the maximum internet speed they are allowed.
This is an example topology:
core switch ==== aggregation switch ---- access switch 1 ---- 10 users
|----- access switch 2 ---- 30 users
|----- access switch 3 ---- 50 users
I want to find the needed capacity (or maximum traffic in the busiest hour) for the links between aggregation switch and access switches 1, 2 and 3. I know they will be allowed to have maximum internet speed of 50 Mbit/s and no transfer between users.
In the worst case they will all download at 50 Mbit/s, so 50 users * 50Mbits/s = 2500Mbit/s but this case will almost never happen as the traffic comes on bursts and it will be waste of resources.
So I need a general method, best practices or any guide for this job. All I find in the Internet is theory with almost scientific value, but no information how they do it in IPSs and telecommunication companies in practice.

Kinder, Gentler Pediatric Imaging
Pediatric imaging is simply imaging for children. If you have children, you know that kids can find medical facilities and procedures scary. Most hospitals are designed for efficiency rather than comfort, especially when it comes to children. Conversely, children and their parents prefer having their imaging done at DCA because it is a comfortable, patient-friendly environment.
We are a certified Image Gently® Alliance facility. The Image Gently Alliance's mission is to improve safe, effective imaging care for children worldwide. Image Gently provides specific guidelines for imaging children with CT, MRI, ultrasound, digital X-rays, nuclear medicine, interventional radiology and other imaging procedures. When it comes to imaging children, one size does not fit all. Children are more sensitive to radiation, which is why we follow Image Gently protocols to deliver the smallest possible radiation dose for each exam.
How Should You Prepare Your Child For Pediatric Imaging
Keep your child as calm and comfortable as you possibly can. Dress your child in comfortable clothing like sweats or pajamas with elastic or drawstring waists. Do not use clothing with metal buttons, snaps, fasteners or buckles. Parents should follow any pre-examination guidelines (like not eating or drinking) given by the radiology staff. Remove all jewelry before coming to the imaging center. Preparation recommendations will vary according to the specific procedure being performed and your child's age at the time of testing. Here are some general guidelines:
- Comfort your baby with your presence and voice
- Depending on the test, bring a bottle of juice or formula to be given after the exam
- Dress your child in a two-piece outfit
- Bring a bottle, pacifier, special blanket, toy and stroller
Toddlers & Preschool-Age Children
Before the test, explain to your child, "you will have some pictures taken so the doctors can help you feel better."
- Use simple words and be honest
- Let your child know that you will stay with them
- Bring a favorite book, toy, blanket and a snack for after the test
School-Age Children
School-age children have good imaginations. They may frighten themselves by imagining something much worse than the actual test. Before the test, explain "you will have some pictures taken of your body so the doctors can help you feel better."
- Use simple words and be honest
- Let your child know that you will stay during the test
- Bring a favorite book, toy, game or CD for your child
- Depending on the test, bring a snack for after the exam.
What to Expect During Pediatric Imaging
Our caring staff will escort you and your child to the preparation area to prepare for the test. A technologist will do a pre-screening for the test and review the exam with you. We will also screen you to make sure that it is safe for you to be in the examination room. After the exam, you will be free to leave the facility.

"I am With You" from According to His Kind Intentions
My dear friend, Denese Brown wrote a book of devotionals titled, According to His Kind Intentions. The book is real soul food, food for the soul! I decided to share with others one of the devotions that blessed me. Like her Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/pages/DSBrown-Books/642936995831963?ref=br_tf; and order the book.
"I am with You"
"When you go through deep waters I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you" (Isaiah 43:2).
I will be with you . . . The Lord God made this promise to every major biblical leader, from Abraham to the apostle Paul. He promised His presence to be with us, He said don't be afraid, because He would never leave us nor forsake us and difficulties would never overtake us (Joshua 1:5). He did not say, that we would not have difficulties, but He said when hard times come; do not worry because I AM with you.
As a matter of fact, He tells us that in this life, we will have tribulations, but take courage because He has overcome the world (Joh 16:33). If "I AM' is with you, what can harm you? The Lord told Joshua that "No one will be able to stand against you as long as you live (Joshua 1:5). Many, many times in the Bible, God reminds us how much He loves us and not to worry. Scripture passages from several epistles, says have joy when trials come (James 1:2) because you already know that I'm going to cause it to work together for your good (Romans 8:28).
The Lord God told Moses that His presence would be visible to His people as a cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night (Exodus 33:14). The Psalmist declares, even if your mother and father forsake you, God will take you up (Psalms 27:10). Paul states in Romans, "that nothing can separate us from the Love of God, nothing (Romans 8:35-39).
I've also noticed that whenever God gives an assignment, He declares, not to fear because He is with them. Of course, they were afraid and we get anxious too, when God asks us to do something that is beyond our perceived ability. He doesn't stop there, He goes on to declare that, nobody will hurt you; and the rivers of difficulty or the fire of oppression will not consume you. So, how can I be afraid or despair about anything when I know that God is with me? Because I'm still subject to human frailty and need to call on the Lord for His graciousness, to help me overcome fears. Just think about it, the Creator of all things, the whole universe, including us, is with us.
The all-powerful, all knowing and everywhere present God–He's our Father, who chooses to dwell with us. There is something about "knowing" that God is with me that truly gives me so much comfort, a guarantee and a sense of His living presence. How powerful is this truth that God is always with me. He promises to never leave me nor forsake me! The reality of God's presence is the calming salve of assurance that brings peace and grace to my heart. My self-talk affirms that I am not afraid because God is with me. I can do whatever He told me to do because He is with me. Even this difficult trial, I will get through this because God is with me. I'm hurting and discouraged, but God is with me, so thank you Lord for your healing touch. It is God, Him alone who makes the difference in my life. His presence is not only more than enough, He is enough.

Extractions & Repairs
Extraction services can be provided if the dentist determines certain teeth are beyond restorative care. Extraction services will only be performed after an X-ray has been taken and the dentist evaluates your clinical needs. A separate fee is required for an X-ray.
Tooth extractions can be done on a same-day basis in most cases. EMERGENCY EXTRACTION services may also be available the same day.
IMPORTANT: Please remember that your health conditions, any medications you take, and the complexity of the extraction may affect this service. The dentist will gladly discuss circumstances that affect the availability of extractions on a same-day basis.
Denture Repairs
There are two basic types of REPAIRS: simple repairs and repairs with impressions. Different fees apply to each type of repair. The dentist will need to see the denture to determine the extent of the repair required, or if the denture can be repaired. It may not be possible to repair an older denture that has experienced considerable wear.
Please do not try to repair the dentures yourself. This may result in the need for a new denture for which standard charges will apply. Also, note that you will need to be present in the office the day a repair is being performed on your dentures.
Denture repairs can usually be completed the same day.
Denture Relines
A denture reline refits the denture to the gums by way of a new impression. A reline may provide a solution to a loose-fitting denture.
The reline sometimes can be completed while you are in the treatment chair, but it often needs to be sent to the lab. The dentist will discuss with you the type of reline that will be most appropriate for your clinical needs.
Denture relines can usually be completed the same day.
Denture Adjustments
Denture adjustments help alleviate soreness due to high spots where the denture rests upon your gums. For dentures fabricated at the practice you visited, adjustments are available at NO CHARGE during the first 60 days after you receive your dentures. After the first 60 days, adjustments are available at a nominal fee.
If your denture was not fabricated at the practice you visited, it may not be possible to adjust the denture. The practice staff will need to examine the denture to determine what treatment can be provided.
Please remember an adjustment is not the solution to a loose-fitting denture. A reline is typically the best solution.
Gold Crowns for Dentures
Gold crowns for dentures are offered by most affiliated practices, but you will need to contact the local office to confirm this. These crowns are usually availble through special order. Gold crowns are not provided for natural teeth. Please contact the local office for details.

That's weird. What sort of network connection is the replication using? Is this over a LAN (WiFi or Ethernet), a wider-range Internet connection, a cell network…? Basically the slower / laggier / flakier the network is, the more roadblocks are thrown in the way of the replicator. It should still work reliably, though, so what you're describing sounds like a bug; a dozen tiny databases should be able to replicate in a few seconds unless there are major network issues. (Disclaimer: I am not familiar with the replicator implementation in CouchDB itself, although I have implemented compatible replicators so I know the protocol well.) —Jens

"Untie is a culmination of my evolution as an artist.
In Untie, I am suspended in mid-air; helpless and unable to break free. My body is suspended for display and therefore surrendered to viewers. This metaphor portrays the artist as a political body that is captive to materialism and confined by structured spaces.
The installation is constructed of a fabric specially created using my fire reflection technique. I painted the fabric while meditating on the current state of the world. During the process, I cast ashes from the past. Memories that were once intangible are given form as they are reconstructed through mark-making.
Fire-reflection is the most current process of my journey of self-discovery and liberation through projects like Manumission, Taming Fire, Burning Words, Wit-ness and 2-dimensional.
Public reaction is the active component of Untie, as it was with my performance series 2-dimensional (2009-2014). Each version of 2- dimensional included site-specific installations and a variety of public reactions. It became a cross-cultural study performed in eight international locations.
In my performances, public responses reveal the predictability of social restraints. I seek to convey how individual control can remain unconstrained by rigid habits and traditions. Even though I am encased and preserved in a static form I am communicating a sense of liberation from conformity. I perform the silent act of becoming free."

Mafia boss surrenders, inspired by seeing Pope on television.
A fugitive Mafia boss facing 30 years in prison for murder surrendered Thursday, saying he was inspired by Pope John Paul II's historic speech to Italy's parliament, the suspect's lawyer said. Benedetto Marciante was particularly taken by the pope's comments on family values, lawyer Roberto Tricoli said. Marciante surrendered at a Rome prison. "In 30 years of practice, I've never experienced anything like this," Tricoli said from his office in Palermo, Sicily. "It's a miracle." Tricoli quoted his client as saying the pope's comments, which were broadcast live Thursday on Italian state television, awakened his own religious beliefs despite the "adversity" facing him.

COSTA MESA — Playing like they have been together for years, the players from Rea Elementary's third- and fourth-grade girls' soccer team were organized, efficient and most of all, speedy.
Those three areas were a deadly competition Thursday, in a 5-0 silver division 'C' pool-play win over Newport Heights Elementary in Daily Pilot Cup action at Costa Mesa High.
Kaitlin Torres and Wendy Millan both scored two goals, with Linda Madriaga scoring the first goal in the fourth minute off a brief turnover by Newport Heights.
Torres scored her first goal in the 15th minute. She collected a ball at midfield, sped past three defenders, then hit a hard, low shot past the goalie, who raced out in an attempt to stop the ball. Torres kicked her legs at the ground and pumped her arms in a brief, dancing celebration.
Torres also scored in the 44th minute to complete the scoring.
"The first one was when someone passed it to me," Torres said. "I shot it and it went between the goalie's legs. We practiced a lot."
Head coach Oscar Rivera, an 18-year-old senior at Newport Harbor who played on the freshman team, knows quite a bit about playing Rea soccer. He was part of a fifth- and sixth-grade boys' team that won the Pilot Cup in the gold division two years in a row. He was among several high school-aged coaches who are helping a new generation of children learn how to play.
"I'm super-confident we can win the whole thing," Rivera said. "We try to get them to play the right way."
As for Newport Heights, one of the highlights was Romatoulaye Thioub, a Newport Beach native whose family is from Senegal. She made two hard saves as the goalie in the latter stages of the first half. She also had a hard shot early in the second half that was saved by goalie Gisele Garcia, who made five saves.
"When I played in goal, I'm more used to it," Thioub said. "Even though I never played there before. At forward, I did fine. I think I played well today."
At 6:30 p.m. Friday at the Jack Hammett Sports Complex, field No. 4, Newport Heights will play against Lincoln. The result of that game will help determine which team ends up becoming the first-place team in the pool and advances to Saturday's quarterfinals, set for 10:15 a.m. for the first-place team from Pool 'C.'

"An engaging and important addition to the vast library of books about World War II . . . Brey has firm command of art and military history and does an excellent job of evoking the atmosphere of a war-torn country." —Michael Riedel, New York Post
"Brey makes a significant contribution by delving into previously unexplored Italian archives to flesh out the perspective of the native population amid the chaos of war." —Jonathan Lopez, The Boston Globe
"Art and war come together in this superbly researched history that reveals how Italy's Renaissance masterpieces were caught in the crossfire of World War II. Ilaria Dagnini Brey recounts how many of these works almost miraculously survived, and who we have to thank for saving them—a somewhat unlikely crew of art historians, scholars, and architects. She shows how their quiet courage stood between some of the world's greatest treasures and a fate almost unbearable to contemplate." —Ross King, author of Brunelleschi's Dome: How a Renaissance Genius Reinvented Architecture

Trees and associated vegetation are an important part of the natural environment.
Native trees and vegetation exist in bush land reserves, vacant land, sections of Council's parks, along stream corridors and the like.
Trees in managed parks, reserves and public places, and residential properties may have elements of native/remnant vegetation in addition to ornamental/planned plantings.
There is a need to ensure the impact of trees on the built environment and human activity is managed so as to minimise the possibility of damage and injury occurring.
The task of maintaining balance between the needs of the natural environment and that of the built environment is a difficult one for the Council and the establishment of policies for the care and management of its tree stock establishes a consistent approach for Council. More information can be found in Council's Tree Management Policy - CP33
The following sections provide guidance for planting and management of Trees.
Tree roots can be aggressive and can often exert pressure on buildings, footpaths, fences and pipes. Existing cracks in pipes allow root invasion, as tree roots will seek out sources of moisture and nutrients.
When selecting trees, the type of tree chosen should provide the most benefits and the least problems by:
Trees shall not be planted Less than
0.6 m from kerb
1.0 m from a fence
1.0 m from a retaining wall
3.0 m from a manhole
0.6 m from kerb
1.0 m from a fence
1.0 m from a retaining wall
3.0 m from a manhole
It is recommended that before any planting is done of large tree species that you find out where the services (e.g. drains and pipes) are located on your property. Dial Before You Dig can assist in advising the location of services on your property.
Only approved species may be planted within easements and under power lines.
Please contact the Relevant Authority for their Guidelines for Planting within Easements.
Dial Before you dig can assist with identifying easement locations - Water, Sewer, Stormwater, Gas, Telecoms, or Electrical Transmission.
Trees on footpaths or median are planted and cared for by Burnie City Council. Council also requires developers to provide landscaping within most development sites.
Council prioritises tree care activities. New trees are routinely maintained and mulched to establish maturity. As they grow, those branches which begin to encroach into clearance zones above footpaths/roadways are targeted for removal.
Sometimes trees must be removed with replacement being planted in keeping with others in the area.
Service Levels
Council will clear storm damaged street trees - please call city offices detailing the location and size of any fallen tree / limbs.
Trees on public land, including nature strips are Council assets and can only be pruned or removed by Council staff or contractors engaged by Council.
Planting of trees in a naturestrip should only be undertaken with the approval of Council and must conform to Council's planting policies and standards.
Property owners are responsible for ensuring that vegetation, including any tree, hedge or shrub is not extending beyond their boundary and encroaching onto public footpaths, public right-of-ways or obstructing the view of motorists. Trees on private property must be pruned by the owner to maintain a 2.5m height clearance zone over a fence, footpath, or nature strip.
Under the Local Government (Highways) Act 1982, Council can issue a property owner with a written request to tend to the overgrown vegetation. Property owners will be given a nominated timeframe, not being less than 14 days, that they must comply within. If the property owner fails to comply with the request, Council may carry out the work and recover the expenses from the property owner.
Property owners are also responsible for ensuring that trees on their property are not causing tree root damage to neighbour's or public property.
Disputes Between Neighbours
Neighbours do not always see eye to eye. From time to time a problem will arise which needs to be resolved. These problems can be varied; overhanging Trees and Vegetation, blocked views and blossom nuisance are common. These types of problems are best be sorted out by neighbours who are willing to work together towards a mutually benefitting solution.
You may remove limbs from a neighbours tree that overhangs into your property. Council cannot intervene in such matters, It is best advised to seek your own legal advice on these matters if the issue cannot be resolved.
Managed by Department of State Growth - Transport (formally DIER)
For more information see: https://www.transport.tas.gov.au/road/network/roadside_maintenance
For more information see Tas Networks Safe growing near powerlines & Who's responsible?
Some areas require a permit for Vegetation planting, clearing or modification under the Burnie Interim Planning Scheme 2013
Some examples include: Heritage areas, areas of protected Scenic or Landscape values, areas with Biodiversity value, Landslip hazard areas, or land located within 30m of a wetland or watercourse. The removal of any threatened vegetation will require a permit. This means you may require written approval from Council before trees can be removed. Please contact Council to Discuss.
Clearing large numbers of trees
You are required under the Forest Practices Act 1985 to obtain a Forest Practices Plan If:
Further information is available at the Forest Practices Authority website
What do I do if I notice a fallen tree or fallen branch?
Council will clear storm damaged street and reserve trees. Please call the city office detailing the location and size of any fallen tree or branch. Trees on private property are not council's responsibility.
I have a tree on my nature strip that is getting too big. Can I prune it myself?
No, you will need to report this to Council. Trees on public land, including nature strips, are Community assets and can only be pruned or removed by Council staff or contractors engaged by Council. Please call the city office to provide the location of the tree. TasNetworks provide tree pruning to trees directly under and likely to interfere with power lines.
Is it okay for me to plant a tree or shrub on my nature strip?
Trees cannot be planted on nature strips without prior approval from Council. Any plantings must also conform to Council's planting policies and standards.
My next door neighbour has a big tree that hangs over my yard, drops leaves and blossom and blocks the sun. Can Council force them to prune or remove it?
Overhanging trees and vegetation, blocked views and blossom nuisance are common, but trees on private properties are not the responsibility of Council. It is best to talk to your neighbour first and try to work together toward a mutually agreeable solution.
The tree on my nature strip clogs up the storm water drains with fallen leaves. Who is responsible for keeping the drains clear?
Council has responsibility for keeping public drains and gully pits clear and does so with a regular program of works.
Can I have a Council tree removed?
Requests for removal of street trees will be followed up with an assessment of various aspects of the tree's health and likely impact on infrastructure or property. Subject to the outcome of the assessment the tree may stay or be scheduled for removal subject to availability of funds.

Best Troll Of Oscar Night Goes To . . .
"Grinding Nemo"
No greater night to have been a Twitter troll than on Oscar night 2018 — the worst Oscar show in living history by every objective measurement.
From rap-star Common going off on an SJW freestyle rant during his performance to Jimmy Kimmel wishing he had no penis, the night came loaded with plenty of gold moments for trolls to have their way with. Ladies and gentlemen, here are the nominees for Best Troll Of Oscar Night 2018:
1. Stephen Miller
2. Dennis Miller
3. Chad Felix Greene
4. Michael Malice
As they say, the nomination already makes you a winner. But the singular Best Troll of the night goes to none other than The Daily Wire's Ben Shapiro for spoiling our childhoods in response to the fish sex movie "The Shape of Water" taking home Best Picture:
Also, kudos to Michael Knowles for digging up this gem of a tweet from President Trump back in 2014:

Airport terminals are like a giant impulse aisle, full of temptations you may usually resist, whether it's glossy gossip mags or salty snacks. Even if you're traveling for business, it can be simple to adopt a vacation-mode mentality, dropping your usual healthy eating habits or over-eating out of boredom or travel anxiety.
That'll probably lead to regrets later in the day: Opting for unhealthy snacks can result in GI upset or feeling hangry (thanks, sugar crash), points out Ginger Hultin, RDN, a Seattle-based Arivale coach. "Keep in mind how you want to feel in the long-term: tired and cranky or energetic and alert? Snacking at the airport can greatly affect the experience you'll have on the flight and on your trip," Hultin says.
Fortunately, there are plenty of excellent-for-you eats available at airports these days. We spoke to nutrition experts to find out which foods they eat before a flight—and which ones they avoid at all costs.

Series: Immortals After Dark, #6
Publisher: Pocket
Release Date: May 20, 2008
Pages: 368
Cadeon Woede will stop at nothing to atone for the one wrong that will haunt him forever. But once he secures the key to his redemption, the halfling Holly Ashwin, Cade finds that the woman he thought he could use for his own ends and then forget haunts him as much as his past. A tormented warrior she should fear, but can't deny... Raised as a human, Holly never knew that some frightening legends are real until she encounters a brutal demon who inexplicably guards her like a treasure. Thrust into a sensual new world of myth and power, with him as her protector, she begins to crave the demon's wicked touch. Surrender to dark desires... Yet just when he earns Holly's trust, will Cade be forced to betray the only woman who can sate his wildest needs -- and claim his heart?
"I want to go, but not alone with him! I don't suppose you could hire someone less…" "Incredibly hot? With less lickable horns and a less sexy Sith Ifrican accent?"
I went into DARK DESIRES AFTER DUSK liking it quite a bit like the last few books, but came out frustrated and annoyed. I think I made it a little halfway before I started getting annoyed and I guess part of that is because I found the heroine incredibly annoying. It was an exhausting read and I think my expectations may have been raised a bit too high for this book because I didn't take into account that I may have wanted to strangle the heroine.
"Fate decides . . . who I can be most satisfied with." Nibbling her lip, she asked, "Have you slept with anyone else since you knew it was me?" "Gave a halfhearted try for a witch . . . she wanted a werewolf instead."
There was no getting around it--Holly was jealous of the witch. But then Cadeon said, "And I wanted you." I adored Cadeon when he first appeared in Wicked Deeds on a Winter Night. I found him playful, exciting, fun and easy to talk to in a best friend kind of way. Cadeon had messed up badly with his brother and he is trying to make up for it and making up for it means losing her mated female right when he is finally able to be with her. It's heartbreaking, but Cadeon is at the point where is is constantly asking himself is he really going to make up his past mistakes to his brother by betraying the one woman that he loves?
Without looking up, she said, "Cadeon, a chance can't be reduced from zero." "Gods, I love it when you talk mathy to me."
And that one woman is the most dumbest and idiotic heroine's I've ever met. The main reason why I didn't enjoy this book so much is because of Holly. She is basically a geek. A so called smart woman who is a brainiac and gets caught into this immortal mess.It is very obvious that Cade and Holly are attracted to each other. Cade doesn't fight it, but Holly fights it for the longest time, but we are more than halfway through the book and she is still pushing him away. I understand pushing him away. And some of the arguments she got into with him is only something a nerd would argue about. I feel like the middle of this book was so boring.
"You dress her in a wet T-shirt and make her carry the bags? Damn, Cade, I like how you roll"
And Holly was the most uninteresting person ever! She is the definition of geeky and nerdy. Her so called sickness was a complete joke! I just didn't connect with the heroine this time. DARK DESIRES AFTER DUSK was still pretty good, but it was just okay for me. The heroine really did ruin the book for me. I loved the dialogue and the amazing storyline as usual! How could I not? I am looking forward to the next Immortals After Dark book and hopefully it will make up for this one being not so great.

Charlotte Church's father beaten up in bathroom brawl, court hears
CHARLOTTE CHURCH's father was left with a fractured eye socket after he was beaten up for asking for cocaine at a New Year's Eve (01Jan13) party, a court has heard.
James Church was left battered and bruised after the bathroom bust-up during a bash at Potters Bar Pool Hall in Leckwith in Cardiff, Wales.
Robert Moore had been charged with causing grievous bodily harm but he was let off the hook on Friday (02Aug13) after a jury agreed he acted in self-defence.
Moore alleged he had seen James snorting cocaine earlier in the evening before bumping into him in the men's room, where the fight kicked off and the singer's dad was hit over the head with a bottle.
The star's mum Maria took the stand to testify, telling the court, "I had never seen such a smashed-up face. He was an absolute, complete and utter mess and badly injured. When I saw his face I absolutely screamed - I went hysterical. I've never experienced anything like that before."
Moore insisted James' head injury could have been caused by a toilet door, protesting, "He came in confrontationally asking for cocaine and I said we didn't do cocaine. He came towards me to 'do' (hurt) me and I got in first. We both fell over and I fell on top of him and we were both chucking punches."
Charlotte, who was adopted by her stepfather James in 1999, did not attend the trial.

Copper Special
Cops can keep on truckin' thanks to Ford announcing the latest addition to its extensive lineup of special police vehicles, a lineup that includes a Transit prisoner transport vehicle and a special service police sedan to help fulfill the unique needs of law enforcement agencies nationwide.
The 2016 Ford F-150 Special Service Vehicle package is available for both SuperCrew and SuperCab body styles. Plus the F-150 Special Service Vehicle gives a selection of configurations so customers can pick what best suits their needs. Available in XL trim for either F-150 SuperCrew or SuperCab configuration, police departments can opt for the package in a 4×4 or 4×2 drivetrain, along with the 5.0L V-8 or high-torque 3.5L EcoBoost engine to ensure that there is never a lack of power.
Stephen Tyler, Ford police marketing manager, says, "Police can load the cargo box with equipment and still fit five people inside. Its utility is unmatched the package adds high-output alternator to meet power needs."
Ask any policeman and he will tell you the backseat of a prisoner transport vehicle is subject to a variety of bodily fluids or caustic contraband. The easy-to-clean rear vinyl bench seating and flooring makes post-prisoner-delivery cleanup a breeze. A removed center console allows for custom equipment placement.
In summation, law enforcement makes up a large portion of Special Service Vehicle purchases, so Ford added the F-150 to satisfy a complete range of police needs. "We offer a whole family of police vehicles," says Arie Groeneveld, Ford chief program engineer for police vehicles. "Our lineup aims to fulfill the unique needs of law enforcement officers, and our F-150 Special Service Vehicle is an extension of that offering. This vehicle definitely lives up to its Built Ford Tough reputation."

Sec 24 and 25 P.A.C.E 1984 arrest powers have been repealed apparently. Nice to be kept up to date.
I usually fall into a trance like state at these things but I was absolutely amazed at the amendments to the Road Traffic Act 1988.
Sec 165A & B of R.T.A. 1988. gives a constable in uniform the power to seize a vehicle been driven by Chavboy if he has no license or insurance!
Grinned like a cheshire cat I did.
Oh what joyous fun shall be had on the streets of Scumshire.
HALLELULLAH. A ray of hope has shone through the clouds of despair.
Cart off said crying chavs car to storage and if he don't claim it in 14 days by producing a person with a full license and insurance certificate to drive THAT car, no 3rd party basis, then off it goes to the scrapyard or to be sold.
HA Ha ha hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahah.
Apparently after the recovery agent has recouped his costs from the scrap or sale then any cash left over is back to the force budget.
Dah da da da dah. A'hm loving it.
AND! if a car makes off from you, failing to stop, you can seize it if its found within 24hrs.
Our law trainer is on a roll by now and narrates a Road Wars type thing where Kent police lost a Mitsubishi Evo after it failed to stop but came upon it a short while later on the driveway of house.
Chav exits car and goes inside house.
Cops get on the radio and ask for a removals unit.
Chav comes out 5 mins later. "Wot you doin?"
Cop says "Seizing that car."
Chav says "You can't do that!" and goes back inside.
Few mins later and chav 2 comes out of nearby address. "Thats my car innit. I just bought it off him like."
Cop says "License and insurance for it have we?"
Silence. Chav 2 retreats.
Chav 1 then comes out with a kitchen knife and starts slashing at the Evo's tyres. Obviously thinking the cops won't be able to drive it away.
Removals unit the arrives and drags Evo onto rear of flatbed and dumbstruck Chav is nicked for possession of an offensive weapon by smirking cops.
Oh the joy.

I love it when a plan comes together ;)

It's a beautiful piece of legislation, but the problem is there's a huge initial outlay to set up the pounds etc, so although we have the power to seize we've been told we can't. Bugger.
Will be nice when it happens though....
- 2 March 2007 at 11:31
now if we crushed & cubed them on the spot we could fit more of them on a lorry. & we could use a smaller pound. oh & as with all process from time to time mistakes will undoubtedly be made,
"mr chav, mr chave. has anybody seen the chav. now where did he get to. he was sat here a minute ago. humm"?

Take it easy lads! Have a heart. Many years ago, my car was 'lifted' for being parked too close to a junction, in London. (Twas parked on a spot which is occupied 24 hours a day by someone or other!). I had to pay £96 to get it back, despite the fact that I had to stand and watch as it was 'lifted'. £96 broke my heart but ..... watching it get crushed? Wince, wince, wince.
Be merciful, brothers.

Brilliant!!! I seized a car from a foreign driver with dodgy driving license, no insurance and incorrect tax disc on display. What used to fall into the difficult to deal with basket just fell into the piece of cake basket.

After hundreds of emails since October 2012, too many conference calls, texts, phone calls, and meetings to count combined with endless patience and waiting TODAY is finally the day when a single email turns into a TV show. I am so honored to be a part of the amazing team that came together to produce this documentary. I so appreciate the trust of the victims we encountered, for those who even just blessed us with a moment of their time, also for the many people who will never be seen or known about that worked in anonymity with us to make this episode possible. All had the same hope, dream and motivation- to help stop this crime, to help victims and society know that help is available along with HOPE.
When asked where I wanted to film I said HOUSTON!I love Houston, I was born and raised there. When I think of home, I often think of Houston too no matter where I am living – I love the forward progress, the economy, the amazing people and things that make anything possible in Houston. That spirit known world-wide due to NASA, the oil industry, heroes like Red Adair, rapid construction and growth, the Houston Live stock Show and Rodeo to the world-class medical care of M.D. Anderson, Texas Children's Hospital and others, the Ship Channel, the University of Houston, to Museums that combined make Houston a place exciting like no other. Even today , when I see the downtown skyline I still get chills and butterflies in my stomach from seeing all that business in one place- all the possibilities, accomplishments, and futures yet to be realized- and some lost like when I see the former Enron buildings. The skyline reminds me of the era of Urban Cowboy and how luring it was in those scenes. The place where any amount of money was possible — combined with hard-working people with earth type grit.
My Childhood in Houston
I had an amazing childhood there- we worked cattle and raised horses, drank water from a well and also participated in ice skating at the Galleria, gymnastics, field trips to the art, history, science and other museums and of course fun excursions to Galveston for fishing and beach play.When I was a teen I read Texas Monthly magazine and loved the articles about justice – especially justice after injustice.
As it would turn out Texas Monthly writer/ senior editor Mimi Swartz, would write an article about my work in 2010 , and later she wrote another article for More Magazine in 2012, which would lead to the TV show. Those articles were an amazing experience- I loved every minute of it- because it gave such a large voice to victims who so needed to be heard. Those articles also kept me encouraged when it seemed as though the odds were against my clients and my work. As time progressed it proved that those cases did resolve in favor of the victims- I love the media!!!
So all to sum up these experiences and bring them to current time- I love Houston and have had my childhood dreams realized there- however when working there in 2004- 2005 I saw Houston as I had never seen it before. My beloved home town had a very dark underside. I was hired to help victims in Houston and to expand efforts to engage law enforcement and others to combat trafficking and protect victims under the TRAFFICKING VICTIMS PROTECTION ACT OF 2000. I am a bit naive, hard-headed, loyal and dedicated to justice so even though that job has ended my promise has not- I have worked all these years to combat this dark trade in souls so that Houston can the city that is free of this exploitation- or at least become unwelcoming to the traffickers and safer for the victims.
I learned that this trade is intertwined with the economy and is known about supported and condoned by many who others may think are respectable. Some of Houston's wealthy business people and leaders are a part of this horrible scheme. Whether benefiting directly, indirectly or just apathetic the result is the same- the victims you see on our show are suffering for the purposes of money, greed, and power- not the victims' power but others' power over them.
I hope this encourages the viewers to take a look at their communities and work to make them safer for victims and hostile to traffickers.
Sex Slaves: Texas Rescue Recap
While filming, Dottie Laster and her team were able to make contact with several victims. Dangerously waiting are the pimp, or trafficker, anticipating delivery of money. Assuring they are paid exactly what's expected before leaving the hotel room, often funded out of Laster's own pocket, she lets the victims know that she is there to help, trying to gain their confidence, and to come up with a plan of escape, if the victim chooses to do so.
Viewers of MSNBC's Sex Slaves: Texas Rescue will get a glimpse of the large demand in Houston, one of the nation's largest hubs for trafficking according to the Department of Justice. Some victims are being imported from other countries, some come on their own lured by the promises to e big money. Before long they are living a nightmare, and can't get out.
Over the years the MSNBC documentary series has covered sex trafficking at several locations in the US, including Florida's Magic Kingdom, Chicago, Oakland, Detroit, and the suburbs of any town in America. Topics surrounding human trafficking and prostitution have also been exposed; the men who buy, massage parlors, and victims who are branded by tattoos.
Dottie Laster
Dottie Laster heads up the anti-trafficking program, Save One Soul (SOS), for Bernardo Kohler Center. She is accredited to practice immigration law through her affiliation with the organization. The Anti-Trafficking program seeks to raise awareness and take advantage of the underutilized number of T-visas. Building on successful services to trafficked victims, the goal is to provide training and consultation to other organizations seeing these victims.
A weekly Co-Host on the nationally syndicated radio show, The Roth Show, Laster presents discussion and guests to speak out about a variety of controversial subjects, as well as the anti-human trafficking efforts of the Bernardo Kohler Center.
Dottie Laster has spent over 10 years in the effort of the anti-human trafficking movement nationally, and in her home state of Texas. She is the co-founder of the San Antonio, Texas Coalition Against Human Trafficking and the past Administrator of the Orange County, California Human Trafficking Task Force and has successfully written millions in grants to assist children and victims of human trafficking.
Laster is featured in the documentary on sex trafficking in Latin bars and cantinas, The Cantinera, and her direct rescue work is the subject of the MSNBC Documentary, Sex Slaves: Texas Rescue. She is the recipient of several human rights awards and has been featured in numerous publications including recent issues of Texas Monthly, Town Hall, and MORE

I'm planning a few vacations this summer - The first being a ten-day road trip to three southern cities. I can't wait! The downside to road trips is the limited space for luggage, so my crew decided on one carry-on and one knapsack per person. NOT GONNA HAPPEN! My Toy Poodle, Teddy, can fill a carry-on suitcase on his own (he's packing lots of toys). Luckily, I found this oversized tote..
I'm obsessed with this Gucci Logo Top Handle Tote (available at Gucci). The light pink rubber is the perfect shade for summer. This tote is HUGE and great for road trips. I struggle to fit everything in my small suitcase, so an oversized tote is essential for extended vacations. The rubber is thick and structured to resemble a vintage beach bag. The front of the tote is embossed with the Gucci vintage logo and the bottom embossed with "XXV", "Sine Amore Nihil", "Summer MMXVIII" and "Guccification". LOVE!
These "Walk'In'Dior" low-top trainers in white canvas (available in Dior boutiques only) are from the Dior 2018 Cruise Show and impossible to get. The canvas sneakers have a rubber sole, gold-tone hardware and don "Cristian Dior J'Adour" printed laces. LOVE!
These Chloé gold-tone sunglasses (available at Intermix) have a horn brow bridge and earpiece. This design is smaller than the typical Chloé sunglass style and I do love oversized sunglasses, BUT the horn detail is a delicate touch to the otherwise masculine aviator style. I posted these sunnies in a previous 'I'm Coveting..' post and still fancy a pair. HINT HINT..
The latest Fenty Puma by Rhianna collection is "beachy and badass". I'm a big fan of Fenty and can't wait to see what Creative Director, Rhianna, will design each season.
These surf-inspired Fenty women's Terrycloth dolphin shorts (available at Puma) look so comfy. The checkered print along the back waistband gives these shorts a motocross vibe and this color will look great against sun-kissed skin. These shorts are also available in vibrant blue and cream.
My favorite accessory on this months' "I'm Coveting.." post are these Rylee skinny calfskin boots by Chloé (available at NET-A-PORTER). The cloudy yellow shade is gorgeous. These slightly glossed, lace-up boots have a buckle at the top and across the vamp. The cutouts and buckles give these Rylee boots a warrior princess vibe. They're also available in medium - ankle boot style.
The little angels screen print on this Fiorucci Vintage Angels cropped Tee (available at Revolve Clothing) is kinda strange, but I like it. I purchased the Fiorucci sweatshirt in blue light with this print and can't wait to wear it on my road trip. The boxy sweatshirt style is a little shorter than your average sweatshirt, but the material is cozy. I'm not a crop top kinda girl, but I like this print. This angels printed tee is feminine and the pale pink shade is perfect for summer.

text: Mr Iommi has very successfully tried his hand music for picture by writing for the hit US TV show 'CSI'. Tony Iommi issued this update on his website: "People have been asking what exactly I'm doing at the moment. Well, I'm getting back in the studio, having tried to make myself rest after the tours. I'm writing, mostly just putting ideas down rather than complete songs. I like to create all sorts of moods with my music and then decide later how they might be used. One specific piece, though, is for the 'CSI' ['Crime Scene Investigation'] TV series that will be aired in the U.S. on November 9th. I was asked if I'd be interested, so I had a look at the footage and came up with an idea they seemed to like. It's not very long, but it was different working with images rather than just music. I'd certainly be up for doing more."

Beaufort News
Impasse ends on building outpatient center in Bluffton
Two hospitals vying to expand services in Beaufort County -- and at the same time trying to block each other's plans -- have called a truce.
Hilton Head Hospital announced Friday that St. Joseph's/Candler Health System will no longer fight its plans to build an outpatient center in Bluffton near the intersection of U.S. 278 and Buck Island Road.
The center had received approval from the S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control board, but the Savannah-based St. Joseph's/Candler had appealed that decision.
In exchange, Hilton Head Hospital agreed to drop its challenge of DHEC's decision to allow St. Joseph's/Candler to acquire a CT scanner without a certificate of need, according to a news release.
"At the end of the day, we all want what is best for the patients living in Bluffton, Hilton Head and the surrounding communities," Paul P. Hinchey, president and CEO of St. Joseph's/Candler, said in a statement. "It was important to move on with the business of providing excellent and expanded services to the people of Beaufort County.
"The positive response we've received from our growth in the area shows that expanded medical services are needed, and this agreement will allow both systems to move forward at the appropriate time."
Earlier this year, Beaufort Memorial Hospital and St. Joseph's/Candler requested a hearing before the S.C. Administrative Law Court to object to the proposed $18 million Hilton Head Hospital outpatient center. Both hospitals have since dropped their objections.
In Friday's news release, Mark T. O'Neil Jr., president and CEO of Hilton Head Regional Healthcare, said the deal was mutually beneficial.
"We are extremely pleased to be able to proceed with the development of a new outpatient center in Bluffton," O'Neil said. "The outpatient center is being built so that health care needs of the overall area in southern Beaufort County can be better served, and we believe this outpatient center in Bluffton will increase accessibility and quality of outpatient services."
The proposed 60,000-square-foot, two-story building would include diagnostic-imaging services, digital mammography, and a variety of adult and pediatric physical, speech and occupational therapies.
The center also would house the Genesis Clinic, currently at 1 Burnt Church Road in Bluffton, which provides prenatal care for local Hispanics.

'Private Attorneys General': Statutory and Discretionary Provision of Attorney Fees
As a general rule, each party to a lawsuit is responsible for paying his or her own attorney fees. However, many statutes provide for the award of attorney fees to the prevailing party in a lawsuit. Examples range from 'Civil action[s] against a person who fraudulently deceived a senior citizen or handicapped person' (Minnesota Statute 325F.71, subd.4) to 'Wrongful disclosure of video customer records' (Minnesota Statute 325I.03). Attorney fee clauses are also common in civil rights enforcement statutes.
A judge in a civil action also has the discretion to award attorney fees where he or she sees fit. One example is awarding attorney fees to an individual collecting on delinquent spousal maintenance or child support--the reasoning being that the obligee would not have incurred the fees in retaining an attorney to collect had the obligor been in compliance with his or her support obligations.
Contractually-provided for attorney fees are another, perhaps more common, scenario. For example, in most consumer credit contracts, there will be a provision holding the consumer liable for attorney fees incurred in a collection action.

text: Suspected pipe-bomb builder Jose Pimentel could be offered a plea deal, prosecutors said today. Pimentel has yet to be indicted more than six weeks after his arrest at the New York apartment of a police informant, and a grand jury action was postponed for the third time on Monday in order to give Pimentel and his attorneys a chance to review "materials" from the Manhattan district attorney. Mayor Bloomberg and Police Comissioner Ray Kelly presented the Pimentel arrest proudly to the press, describing him as a "lone wolf" and "Al Qaeda sympathizer," but subsequent information called into question the suspect's ability to do anything on his own. As it turned out, the FBI had passed on the case more than once, and in airing their doubts about its seriousness, hurt the NYPD's feelings.

Some of you may remember my blog series, Macchiavelli's Guide to the Music Industry, which ran for a while on a well known site. I started that blog in the first place when I thought that the main reason that many musicians couldn't find a way to climb the music industry ladders was because of how opaque it must look from the outside. Because it wasn't obvious to them which were the snakes and which were the ladders. What I tried to do in that series was to help artists to understand what a record label was looking for and what the expectations of them as a signed artist might be. I thought that would help them avoid the reptiles that litter the way.
On the back of Macchiavelli's Guide I decided that there was more I could do as a record producer to help artists that I was working with. In short, I decided I could use my contacts across the industry to help to open doors for them. Now I don't know whether I simply chose to work with the wrong artists for the wrong reasons, but on every occasion I tried to do that, something went horribly wrong. Experiences ranging from egotistical behaviour and ignorance which simply put off the music managers, lawyers and agents I introduced, to at it's most spectacular, a band who fell apart because they couldn't agree on how the booty should be split when they were offered a major label contract on the basis of a record which I had both funded and produced for them! This led me to understand that many artists were simply incapable of acting in a professional enough manner to capitalise on the opportunities being offered to them.
As a result of the above, with my fingers feeling well and truly burnt, I retreated for a while from trying to help unsigned artists at all. I went back to basics: made records, tv ads and film scores, and quietly got on with running my business. But I always felt there was more I could do. If I could just find a way of preventing people from killing their own opportunities. That state of affairs led me to a discussion with the Managing Director of Integrity Records, one of the longest running truly independent record labels in the country. Now Nick, like most record labels, had seen a very big change in the economics of running a label as, in an era which people don't actually like to buy music, it had become more difficult than ever to recoup any investment into a new artist. Over almost a two year period we tried to work out between us what model could work. Where we got to quickly was that music publishing required a substantial set up cost (registrations, infrastructure, catalogue, sync agents, collections) but could make us profits that we could reinvest in recording artists who in turn had publishing potential. An upward spiral in which we invested our profits back into the business for the good of both the songwriters and the catalogue. From Nick's perspective it could allow him to invest more money back into releasing his own recording artists, from my perspective, it meant that, as a record producer, I could offer a pretty near cast iron guarantee that anyone I worked with could have a publishing deal. And of course once an artist has assigned their music to the publishing company, other than receiving a cheque and spending the money, artists wouldn't really have to commit to anything or deliver to a time schedule except in the case of bespoke compositions (on which we choose our writers very carefully indeed).
Two years on we have three agents on the ground in the UK and four in the United States. Our catalogue has been placed in film, TV ads, online and in Play Station games. Flushed with success, last year we relaunched Wise Dog Records as an imprint of Integrity Publishing Limited. But of course this is where we began to have to rely on artists again.
We recently signed our first artist of 2017. Now this singer/songwriter is fabulous: hard working, talented, reliable, willing to listen to ideas and, occasionally, take direction but at the same time, has a real vision for her music and knows where she wants to get to. I initially worked with her on a development deal and ultimately produced, recorded and mixed her debut single. When I pitched it to Nick he sent it around a small cadre of friendly radio DJs and taste makers for their opinion. As a result, we are currently preparing the release of her debut record: branding, PR, plugging, music video, distribution etc. So far so good. But then we forgot our 50 years of joint hard won experience and decided it would be a clever idea to get our next potential signing a cameo part in the music video for this artist. What could go wrong...?
It took a considerable time to book the venue, and the studio (there are two different scenes), catering, organise wardrobe and make up, plan the video on almost a frame by frame basis, order the additional equipment required, find and buy the props, not to mention find a window when every single person could be available for a long day of shooting. So when the cameo singer/songwriter in question pulled out 36 hours before filming with no more of a reason than 'I might have a gig opportunity...' Well, you can imagine. While the loss of deposits is important in this catch strapped environment, the loss of confidence of everyone involved is hard to even begin to quantify. And this is before we even think about the effect on the singer whose debut release will now be pushed back as a result!
So artists, musicians, I guess this is a plaintiff cry of some grizzled old git who is very close to giving up on you. if you are offered an olive branch, even if you can only see it from your own perspective, try for a moment to think about how it might affect how other people feel about you if you snap the leaves off the end and then hand it back. Consider, if you will, whether you want to bank some goodwill or ensure that doors may well be slammed in your face going forward. Understand that most record producers, management companies, music lawyers, record labels, and music publishing companies actually know each other personally. And also understand that if you accept that olive branch, and then slap the person who gave it to you in the first place around the face with it, the whole damn olive grove (let's call it the music industry) may well find it hard to trust you enough going forward to invest anything in your music.
Thanks as ever go to Iain at www.igibson-photography.com for the graphics! Whether you need a photo shoot or a new website, give him a call.
