There's something about treasure hunting that's irresistible and compelling; especially when it touches Oregon history and offers unique outdoor adventures too.
Rich Mulcahy likes to say, "When the tide goes out, the treasure table is set."
"I think it's that I am going after something that's been lost, and I am digging in the sand to find it. I love to dig stuff."
Rich walks long lonely stretches of the Oregon coast each day accompanied only by the excited sounds of his hand-held detector; the device is his constant companion.
The new evidence suggests the Hunley was less than 20 feet away from its torpedo when it exploded. Remnants of the 2-foot-long torpedo were found bolted to the 16-foot-long spar.
The discovery indicates that the torpedo, which held 135 pounds of gunpowder, did not separate from the spar but instead was placed under the Union ship. It was fired by command, not contact.
"There is overwhelming evidence to indicate this was not a suicide mission," South Carolina Lt. Gov. Glenn McConnell, a Hunley commissioner, said in a statement. "They must have believed this was a safe enough distance to escape any harm. If so, they were at least partially right. Thus far, no damage has been found on the actual submarine caused by the explosion."
Because of the Hunley's proximity to the Housatonic and the amount of gunpowder, the concussion from the explosion could have damaged the sub and injured the crew. "Were some or all of them knocked out?" McConnell asked. "How long were they knocked out? Did the submarine's structure with rivets have a similar problem as the Titanic did when it brushed against the iceberg?" He added, "If the rivets give, the pressure of the water could cause leakage."
Scientists will use the new information to create computer simulations of the attack. Scientists also will start peeling away a layer of rock, sand and silt from the sub.
On a crisp, sunny day on the west side of Lake Hefner, Larry Dobbs walks on what once was water.
His metal detector makes a long beep followed by several short beeps. He's found something under the soft soil. With a trowel he digs up a 2-ounce lead fishing sinker.
Nearby, Dan Pierce is slowly swinging his metal detector back and forth.
"I've got money," Pierce said. He digs up a copper penny. It's the start of this day's hunt.Treasure hunters in Oklahoma have found more ground to cover because of extended drought. On dry lakeshores, where the water used to be, metal detectors are finding collectible items
Finding good sites to metal detect is hard work. Finding them without research is near impossible. In this comprehensive book, we'll guide you to wonderful resources and show you useful skills to aid you in your quest. Research isn't easy, often confusing. You will have to work to get excellent results, but if you've found this site, you clearly are working to improve your skills.
If you are like me, you want to find good sites to hunt, and rule out crappy ones. Not only will you learn how to find good leads, you will develop skill to throw some of those leads out based on primary and secondary source criteria. You'll learn how to spot "iffy" sources and recognize author bias. Best of all, you will develop critical thinking skills.

Journeying to the very heart of the Scottish Highlands, the luxuriously comfortable cabins of The Royal Scotsman, the UK's only luxury sleeper train, transports guests across the ruggedly beautiful terrain to explore the very best of Scotland.
This month sees the liveried carriages return to the Highlands as the 2012 season for The Royal Scotsman commences. Exquisite meals crafted from the best local ingredients, many of which are picked up from local suppliers along the journey, sleeping in cosy cabins aboard the train whilst it's stabled in remote stations, access to some of Scotland's most beautiful stately homes and tours of the finest whisky distilleries are just some of the highlights.
The season, which runs until October, has regular departures from Edinburgh Waverley Station touring the rugged Scottish Highlands visiting sites including Loch Lomond, Ben Nevis and the beautiful Morar Sands.
The collection of itineraries includes the two night 'Highland' journey giving a taste of Scotland's rich heritage; the three night 'Western' Journey which explores Scotland's wildest side up the scenic West Coast; the four night Classic Journey covering some 720 miles and visiting some of Scotland's most iconic sights including Glamis Castle; the five night Grand West Highland Journey is a combination of the Western and Highland journeys and The Grand North Western Journey which combines the Classic and Western journeys.
The highlight of the season is the Grand Tour of Great Britain, an annual, seven night journey which sees the train cross the border to tour some of Britain's greatest sites including Bath, Oxford, Conwy, Cambridge and York.
The changing landscapes can be admired from the lounge; the open veranda of the train's Observation Car, whilst dining on traditional Scottish fare enjoyed in one of the two dining cars or from an en-suite State Cabin, beautifully fitted out in rich woods and inlaid marquetry.
For a milestone birthday or anniversary, a journey on The Royal Scotsman is a spectacular backdrop to reliving treasured memories, whilst creating a host of new ones during the trip. Whether travelling as a couple or as a larger group, nothing compares to celebrating in style dancing to a highland band in the Observation Car; sipping champagne after a daring paddle in the bracing waters of the Scottish coast; or developing your palate with whisky tastings and delicious local ingredients.
Chartering the train for a special occasion lets guests decide on a theme, whether it be food, history and heritage, fishing or golf, a carefully devised itinerary showcasing the best of Scotland will be created with a range of off train excursions.
With an itinerary, menus and excursions individually tailored to the couples' requirements, the wedding party will find themselves, with their guests, on a journey like no other whilst sampling the best Scottish whiskies and revelling in the on board entertainment, all with the wild romantic vistas of the Scottish countryside rolling past the windows.

Hi. My name is Delynn ("De – Lynn") and I head up BuzzCity's Asia sales team. In my contributions to the GammaLife blog, I plan to share examples of how companies conduct branding and marketing exercises on the mobile internet. By the very nature of our business, these cases often extend beyond one particular geographic region and this week's story is no exception.
Emami – an Indian company that specialises in personal care products – aimed to increase brand recognition of a facial cream for men called "Fair and Handsome". The fast-moving consumer goods business also wanted to survey consumer perceptions. So, Emami turned to a Singapore-based company called Mobiquest that partners with clients to provide mobile application services. Together, Emami and Mobiquest produced a contest-driven mobile campaign in two countries, India and Kenya.
I'm going to dive into a fair bit of detail now, but I think this will be useful for advertisers and publishers alike.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
I'd love to see the midlevel content expanded, but hopefully in a cohesive way. I don't think another new zone with questgivers wanting me to bring them X of Y for no real reason is what players are really asking for.
Much of the early and late content excels at making you feel like your questing is more than mere grinding to get to a higher level. You're uncovering clues, you're getting deeper and deeper into mysteries, you're suddenly discovering that quests you performed which seemed random are actually all related.
Yet at the midlevel, with a few exceptions, that largely falls away. You're left zone-hopping with no real sense of purpose or being part of anything, just waiting for the day you can finally graduate from Desolace.
An earlier poster mentioned Gilneas as a possible site for new midlevel content, and I think that's a perfect place. Gilneas is a huge mystery -- rumors of something horrible that's happened beyond that gate, the whispers of worgen, a whole zone that could draw the players in. Kul Tiras is another place that would work well, picking up several threads from WCIII as Jaina and Thrall skirt the limits of their fragile truce sending adventurers there.

Visualize TMS Planner event relations with arrowsIt's already for a longer time that our Planner scheduling components supports linking events. That means that when the start time or end time or both times of an event is changed, the start or end time of a linked event will also change. The change in start or end time of linked event will have the same delta as the source event. The link action of choice can be selected with PlannerItem.LinkType and offers following choices:
- ltLinkFull: when start time and end time of the event is changed, the start and end time of the linked item also changes.
- ltLinkBeginEnd: when the start time of an event is changed, the end time of the linked event also changes.
- ltLinkEndBegin: when the end time of an event is changed, the start time of the linked event also changes.
- ltLinkBeginBegin: when the start time of an event is changed, the start time of the linked event also changes.
- ltLinkEndEnd: when the end time of an event is changed, the end time of the linked event also changes.
var plit1,plit2: TPlannerItem; begin plit1 := Planner1.CreateItem; plit1.ItemStartTime := EncodeTime(10,0,0,0); plit1.ItemEndTime := EncodeTime(12,0,0,0); plit1.ItemPos := 0; plit1.CaptionType := ctText; plit1.CaptionText := 'item 1'; plit1.Text.Text := 'link from'; plit2 := Planner1.CreateItem; plit2.ItemStartTime := EncodeTime(14,0,0,0); plit2.ItemEndTime := EncodeTime(16,0,0,0); plit2.ItemPos := 1; plit2.CaptionType := ctText; plit2.CaptionText := 'item 2'; plit2.Text.Text := 'link to'; end;
When applying one link with code:
then moving or resizing the event "item 1" will result in event "item 2" also moving or resizing. Moving or resizing event "item 2" will not cause changes to event "item 1". When we'd want a bidirectional link, we'd initialize the link with:
plit1.LinkedItem := plit2; plit1.LinkType := ltLinkFull;
In a next step, we'll visualize the link between items with arrow lines. To enable link visualization in the TMS Planner globally, set Planner.ShowLinks = true and set Planner.LinkArrowShape = asFilled when you want fully filled arrows instead of just arrows (asNormal). To have two events that are linked with an arrow line from one event to the other event without specific link relationship, setup the items with:
plit1.LinkedItem := plit2; plit1.LinkType := ltLinkFull; plit2.LinkedItem := plit1; plit2.LinkType := ltLinkFull;
To have the arrows go in both directions, simply set the property LinkArrow to laBoth as in this sample:
plit1.LinkedItem := plit2; plit1.LinkType := ltLinkNone; plit1.LinkArrow := laFromTo; plit1.LinkColor := clGreen;
plitA.LinkedItem := plitB; plitA.LinkType := ltLinkNone; plitA.LinkArrow := laBoth; plitA.LinkColor := clRed;
We hope you'll find this new feature useful and you can benefit from it to create better applications for your customers. Check out this and more in the TMS Planner.

TMS XData v1.0 releasedWe're pleased to introduce today TMS XData, another important part in the TMS Business Subscription line-up of tools & components to let you write better & faster business logic for local, Windows-only, cross-platform and multi-tier solutions, in short, the entire spectrum of Delphi applications you can develop.
TMS XData is a full-featured Delphi framework that allows you to create HTTP/HTTPS servers that exposes TMS Aurelius, our Delphi ORM, objects through REST/JSON calls. With JSON being the defacto language for data communication via internet, these objects can be consumed by Delphi desktop or mobile clients but also any other client written in other languages.
TMS XData builds upon TMS Sparkle, the framework that offers classes for high performance HTTP/HTTPS client and server services for Windows, Mac-OSX, iOS, Android. TMS Sparkle is fully cross-platform but uses behind the scenes platform native APIs for the best possible performance.
To see how TMS XData can help you build multi-tier applications that consume TMS Aurelius ORM objects, suppose you have an Aurelius class mapped like the following.
With just a few lines of code you can create an XData layer to expose those objects. Creating the XData HTTP server module is explained here. You could retrieve an existing TCustomer with id equals to 3 using the following HTTP request, for example:
[Entity, Automapping] TCustomer = class strict private FId: integer; FName: string; FTitle: string; FBirthday: TDateTime; FCountry: TCountry; public property Id: Integer read FId write FId; property Name: string read FName write FName; property Title: string read FTitle write FTitle; property Birthday: TDateTime read FDateTime write FDateTime; property Country: TCountry read FCountry write FCountry; end;
And the JSON representation the customer will be returned in the body of HTTP response:
GET /tms/xdata/Customer(3) HTTP/1.1 Host: server:2001
{ "$id": 1, "@xdata.type": "XData.Default.Customer", "Id": 3, "Name": "Maria Anders", "Title": "Sales Representative", "Birthday": "1980-05-20", "Country": null }
You can perform changes to objects through the REST interface, using POST method to create new objects, DELETE to remove objects, and PUT or PATCH to update the objects. The following example will change the value of Title property of the customer resource specified in previous example:
You can also perform queries on existing objects. The following example will retrieve all customers with country name equals to "USA", ordered by customer's name.
PATCH /tms/xdata/Customer(1) HTTP/1.1 Host: server:2001 { "Title": "Marketing Manager" }
And server will return with a JSON array of objects containing all the filtered objects. You can use query paging to restrict the number of objects returned in each request.
GET /tms/xdata/Customer?$filter=Country/Name eq 'USA'&$orderby=Name&$top=10 HTTP/1.1 Host: server:2001
There is much more to explore in this exciting new framework. You can get started by downloading the trial version for Delphi XE2.. XE6 at http://www.tmssoftware.com/site/xdata.asp and check out the full documentation

Stephen Axilrod is the ultimate Federal Reserve insider. He worked at the Fed's Board of Governors for more than thirty years and after that in private markets and as a consultant on monetary policy.With Inside the Fed, he offers his unique perspective on the inner workings of the Federal Reserve System during the last fifty years—writing about personalities as much as policy—based on his knowledge and observations of every Fed chairman since 1951.
Over the last few years, the financial sector has experienced its worst crisis since the 1930s. The collapse of major firms, the decline in asset values, the interruption of credit flows, the loss of confidence in firms and credit market instruments, the intervention by governments and central banks: all were extraordinary in scale and scope. In this book, leading economists Randall Kroszner and Robert Shiller discuss what the United States should do to prevent another such financial meltdown.
This is the third and last volume of Martin Shubik's exposition of his vision of "mathematical institutional economics"—a term he coined in 1959 to describe the theoretical underpinnings needed for the construction of an economic dynamics. The goal is to develop a process-oriented theory of money and financial institutions that reconciles micro- and macroeconomics, using strategic market games and other game-theoretic methods.
Why do financial institutions, industrial companies, and households hold low-yielding money balances, Treasury bills, and other liquid assets? When and to what extent can the state and international financial markets make up for a shortage of liquid assets, allowing agents to save and share risk more effectively? These questions are at the center of all financial crises, including the current global one.
The 2010 English-language edition of Christian Marazzi's The Violence of Financial Capitalism made a groundbreaking work on the global financial crisis available to an expanded readership. This new edition has been updated to reflect recent events, up to and including the G20 summit in July 2010 and the broad consensus to reduce government spending that emerged from it.
In 1998, President Boris Yeltsin's government defaulted on its domestic debt and Russia experienced a financial meltdown that brought it to the brink of disaster. In No Precedent, No Plan, Martin Gilman offers an insider's view of Russia's financial crisis. As the International Monetary Fund's senior person in Moscow, Gilman was in the eye of the storm. Russia's policy response to the economic collapse stemming from the disintegration of the Soviet Union was chaotic.
The recent increase in cross-border flows of foreign direct investment has sharpened the research focus on multinational taxation. In this book, taxation experts Jack Mintz and Alfons Weichenrieder examine how multinational corporations use indirect financing structures—organizing themselves into groups with several tiers of ownership—to reduce worldwide taxes. They spell out in detail how different tax policies affect corporations' choice of financing structures, discussing the issues in both theoretical and empirical terms.

Fischer Black was known for his brilliance as well as for his sometimes controversial opinions. Highly respected for his scholarly writings in finance, with this book he moved into different territory, offering an incisive, unconventional assessment of general equilibrium theory and what that theory reveals about business cycles, growth, and labor economics.
Crisis in the Global Economy is the latest and most innovative collective reflection on the state of global capitalism, developed in the mobile "multiversity" of the UniNomade network of international researchers and activists during the months immediately following the first signals of the current financial and economic crisis. It constitutes the first organic and interdisciplinary attempt to analyze a crisis that is not merely financial in nature but implicates globalization and neoliberal capitalism.
This text offers an accessible yet rigorous development of many of the fields of mathematics necessary for success in investment and quantitative finance, covering topics applicable to portfolio theory, investment banking, option pricing, investment, and insurance risk management. The approach emphasizes the mathematical framework provided by each mathematical discipline, and the application of each framework to the solution of finance problems.

Tons of Hot Chicks Try Out to Become Denver Broncos Cheerleaders [VIDEO]
To me football is one of those sports that can carry itself without cheerleaders. I mean, it only lasts for 16 games a year, and is high intensity. My question is why doesn't baseball have cheerleaders? That is beside the point though. Football does have cheerleaders, and they are some of the hottest chicks on the planet! Just check out the ones who tried out to be on the Denver Broncos squad…
Yesterday (March 30th) hundreds of hotties from all over the country gathered in Denver to showcase their skills, but some unlucky son of a gun had to sit there, watch, and then cut the girls down to a group of just 60.
That group of 60 will be sliced to just 26 next Sunday (April 6th). Oh, by the way, the finals on Sunday are open to the public. You can find ticket information here.
Now you tell me how in the world you can tell any of these girls they aren't good enough…
You can see more pictures of the girls who tried out by clicking here.

I remember when no races were on TV but taped delayed in the 70's and beyond. Its a product of success. I hate so many commercials and at times want to just watch it later to fast forward through the commercials that are repetitive… Raceview would not be good tho… We are all spoiled now with instant access and numerous points of views with all media with Nascar and lets just enjoy the sport with its success?

Fox's Talladega broadcast left something to be desired
By admin | April 26, 2010
By Richard Allen
I know nothing about producing a live television broadcast of a NASCAR race, but I do know how to watch one. And unfortunately, even in the midst of such a great race as Sunday's Aaron's 499 in Talladega, the broadcast was frustrating to watch.
First and foremost, I know Fox's ultimate goal as a corporation is to make money but while the drivers were setting records for lead changes the network seemed to be trying to set a record for most commercials shown in one race.
At one point late in the event, announcer Mike Joy proclaimed that the upcoming commercial break would be the last. There were at least three commercial breaks after that. I know there were caution flags, but still, the advertising seemed to reach a point of overkill.
Perhaps it could be that there were no more commercials than any other broadcast. It may be that in the hum-drum racing on 'cookie cutter' tracks the breaks are just not as noticeable as compared to a place where the action is essentially nonstop. Nonetheless, the commercials stood out.
Here's one thing I am certain of. It was extremely poor planning to join back in halfway through the first round of pit stops when the yellow flag that brought those stops about was a planned caution. NASCAR had told everyone there would be a competition yellow and had told everyone when that caution would come. Yet, Fox almost missed the action on pit road.
And the best and worst of all in the broadcast came during the interviews of Jeff Gordon and Jimmie Johnson. Fox did a good job of getting to Gordon quickly after his race ending crash and letting him spew his venom toward teammate Johnson. However, pit reporter Dick Bergerren did a terrible, almost inexcusable, job of not pressing the issue in his interview with Johnson. Instead, Johnson was only asked about his spotter's role in the crash that eventually ended his day.
I did read a number of comments from fans of other SEC schools regarding the periodic mentioning of Alabama football but I will let that go for now.
In numerous blogs I write I get numerous responses criticizing the television networks coverage of NASCAR. As I said earlier, I am in little position to offer much criticism myself other than to say as a viewer I do not feel as though I witnessed the best effort Fox could offer on Sunday.

I understand the need for commercials in the broadcast since Fox needs to pay the bills, but the timing of them is something that could be addressed for continuity. There were times during the broadcast where fox was in commercial for 4 to 5 minutes and then would come back and show 2 or 3 laps of racing, then go to commercial again. Based on some of the stats I've read about this broadcast, there were 66 minutes out of 167 minutes of race broadcast devoted to commercial. That's 1/3 of the viewing time. If I want to watch an infomercial, there are channels for that, but I tuned in to see the race. If the only thing fans ever see is racing on TV and its done this poorly, why would they spend the $ to go to the track?
I no longer bother with any of the prerace - there's no information worth watching that drivel. And whoever thought up this idiotic bracket stuff obviously has NO idea about racing at all. This isn't basketball or other stick and ball sports that pit one team against another — its 43 drivers individually competing — there is no head to head match up. What junk.

One must remember that Larry McReynolds is from the Birmingham area of Alabama, and he's proud of the connection.
It is interesting to read blogs of people who were at the race compared to those who watched the race, often it seems were saw two entirely different events. In many cases with Fox it is difficult to imagine we're both talking about the same event.

Same as always, the first half of the the broadcast is nothing more than a MWR promotional and the last half is mostly commercials.
I cant believe that Fox's David Hill allows DW to pitch MWR so as to either secure sponsorship or attempt to lure sponsorship. Its been like that for years.
Do they believe that the average fan is totally stupid?
Speaking of Stupid, they should look at their mess!
Same on SPEED, thats why I dropped that channel!

I've given up watching the races live. I DVR then and then use the 30 second skip feature to blast through the commercials. I get to spend the day with the kids, still watch the entire race and save an hour of my life by not watching the commercials.

I agree there seemed to be a lot of commercials and at the wrong times. However, out of all the networks broadcasting the races, Fox seems to do the best job. I find myself looking for something to throw at the TV whenever NBC is doing the races. The commercials seem to be more often than Fox. ESPN needs to get rid of that guy in the booth. Dale and Andy do a good job, but are dragged down by that other guy. ESPN treats NASCAR as the red headed stepchild to their other sports. I am pretty sure college hockey or softball get more coverage. Just my $.02 worth.

That digger thing really bugs the crap out of me. It has no place in racing coverage. It 's as foolish as that silly @ss robot Fox uses during football coverage.
And what's the record for the first Commercial Break after the Green Flag for Fox? I think it's about Lap 5 if I'm not mistaken…

Fox does have to many commercials,but I find that the other two networks have even more.TNT & ESPN,just saturate their coverage with ads.

TEAMS: Miami Heat, Brooklyn Nets, Minnesota Timberwolves
Getty Images Regardless if the Nets weren't on NBA TV's "The Association" or had rap mogul Jay-Z as their unofficial mascot, the Nets were bound to draw attention when they packed up their bags and exited the Atlantic Avenue stop en route to the Barclays Center. And the Nets knew the attention would come, but in the short-term they are trying to ignore it. "I haven't checked Twitter in like a week because of that," Williams said after Thursday's 30 point loss to the Miami Heat "It's how things go." Expectations were going to be through-the-roof simply from being in Brooklyn alone. However when you add perennial all-star Joe Johnson and have a healthy Brook Lopez coming back, those expectations were raised even higher. "I said at the beginning of the season, we have a team on paper that should be really good," Williams said. "So the expectations are going to be high. Being in Brooklyn now, things are at an all-time high. So if we're not winning, or struggling, it's going to be a big deal. And we are right now. But it's been three games." For the Nets, it's been their defensive struggles that have truly overwhelmed them. It was no more evident than in their loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Brooklyn went up by 22 midway through the third quarter to only end up losing by 11. And to add onto their problems, Joe Johnson has been missing open shots. "Joe missed some wide-open shots that he normally does make," Coach Avery Johnson said. "He'll make them. When he drives, it's kind of five in the paint. And there's going to continue to be five in the paint until we make our outside shots."

Moonlight crept through the cracks,
of the cabin, to lie on the floor.
Crossed the room without tracks,
savoured each spot as the spot before.
Dust danced on the moonbeams,
as time just trickled past.
Minutes lingered for hours, it seems,
these nights, how long they do last.
Pictures now shaded of you last spring,
as moonlight moseyed on along.
Dreadin' pictures the moonlight will bring,
wonder asked me, "What went wrong?"
The moon's light climbs the wall,
chased by the dancin' dust.
Ascendin' its creepin' crawl,
in a few hours, it'll be dusk.
Passing is another night,
the moon's light guards against sleep.
Which one of us was right?
This life I cannot keep.

Nashville Rock Unfluence Getting His Own Tribute Album
by Zigz l Wednesday, November 13, 2013
Provided by Pulse:
A collection of musicians who have influenced Jack White have all contributed covers of White songs to a new tribute album, according to Consequence Of Sound. The disc, titled Rockin' Legends Pay Tribute To Jack White, features covers by rockabilly legends Wanda Jackson, Gary U.S. Bonds, Sonny Burgess, and more. The artists have all recorded songs originally written and laid down by White as a solo artist or with one of his bands, including the White Stripes, the Raconteurs and the Dead Weather. The record is set to arrive on November 19th.
White has never tried to hide his influences and told us that he doesn't worry about whether his music is original or not:"I mean, all you can do is follow what you're drawn to, what you're passionate about, and if that ends up being repeating somebody else, I don't know what to do. Sometimes you can't do anything about it. But if you keep pushing at yourself and at your own passions, you'll break new ground for yourself and then sometimes for other people too."
- The 38-year-old White has collaborated with and/or produced artists such as Jackson, Loretta Lynn, the Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan and Beck ever since the White Stripes broke into the mainstream 13 years ago.
- White recorded and released his debut solo album, Blunderbuss, in 2012, and is also said to be working on his second one along with a new Dead Weather disc.
- His other group, the Raconteurs, has not made new music since 2008 and has played live only a handful of times since then. The band he made his name with, the White Stripes, split up in early 2011 after a four-year layoff.

Landmark Supreme Court decision protects 'outstanding landscapes'
"Another nail in the coffin of the anti-private property rights RMA"Featured comment
The Supreme Court has upheld resource consents for three salmon farms to be developed in the Marlborough Sounds by the King Salmon company, but in an important win for the protection of "outstanding landscapes", it has ruled against a fourth site.
The decision gives a major victory to the Environmental Defence Society, which took its appeal against the resource consent granted for a salmon farm at Paparua, Port Gore, because it believed the decision had failed to uphold important principles in the Coastal Policy Statement, which has legal force under the Resource Management Act.
"This is an incredibly important decision," said EDS coastal policy expert Raewyn Peart. "I've been working on the RMA since it came into force in 1991 and this is the first time this issue has gone to the Supreme Court.
"It looks at this whole issue of whether the legislation, with a National Policy Statement, provides a binding bottom line (for environmental protection), whether it protects special places, and the court has said 'yes'," she told BusinessDesk.
"This has enormous implications for any decision-making that's now going to affect our outstanding landscapes."
However, the Marlborough Sounds lobby group, Save Our Sounds, failed in its application to have a further three other salmon farm resource consents overturned, to the bitter disappointment of members who attended the reading of the judgment in Wellington.
That was essentially because the Board of Inquiry that heard the resource consent applications agreed the Paparua site met the standard for an area of "outstanding natural character and outstanding natural landscape", which qualified it for greater protection under the RMA than other areas.
The board was one of the first to consider a resource consent application under a fast-tracked RMA process enacted in 2011, and concluded it could exercise an "overall judgment" based on the principles of the RMA.
A majority of four of the five Supreme Court judges, including Chief Justice Sian Elias, who heard the case concluded the board was wrong. Justice William Young issued a dissenting judgment.
At the same time, today's two Supreme Court decisions clear the way for King Salmon, which originally applied for resource consents at eight sites in the Marlborough Sounds, to develop three of them.
Comments and questions8
Principles of the RMA: Matters of national importance: All persons exercising functions and powers under the Act are required to recognise and provide for seven matters of national importance (see Approach page - section 6) which are detailed below. It is useful to note that there is a difference in the stringency of attention that is to be paid to these matters, according to whether a feature is to be 'preserved', 'protected' or 'maintained and enhanced'.
2 The protection of outstanding natural features and landscapes from inappropriate subdivision, use and development:
The meaning of 'landscapes' is not restricted to visual aspects but includes layers of association and meaning and different cultural values attributed over time. The extent to which a landscape is 'outstanding' will be assessed by considering a range of factors including geology, topography, ecology, aesthetic values, expressiveness, transient values such as occasional presence of wildlife, whether the values are shared and recognised and its value to tangata whenua. What is outstanding in terms of a district plan is to be assessed on a district-wide basis and similarly on a region-wide basis in respect of regional policy statements and plans.
http://www.rmaguide.org.nz/rma/introduction/principals.cfm?section=matters .
The scheduling of private land outstanding landscapes would be reasonable if there was compensation for the loss of use to the property owner for the taking presumably for the public benefit. In our case the Local Council continually asserted to the Courts that the private land was a reserve when this was clearly not the case. Simultaneously the Council excluded its land which was also professionally reported as being worthy of being scheduled as Outstanding Natural Landscape and is now progressing the same land for residential sections. How can the public have confidence in a system which provides for such inequitable treatment?
Another nail in the coffin of the anti-private property rights RMA!
How much money did the Environmental Defence Society and those associated with it make out of this prolonged legal action.
None I'd have thought. Very expensive to take anything to the Supreme Court.
It is interesting to note that the Ministry for the Environment has a slush fund that contributes to causes which the Ministry considers noteworthy/worthwhile call it legal aid for the environmentalists.

membase over wan for DR site
We have a second datacenter that we use as a DR site. It is basically dark except in the event of a failover. I read in the wiki that running membase over a WAN link is not recommended, so how would one go about setting up a copy of our membase servers in the DR site?
Hi Chris, happy to help here if I can. You're correct that there is no "official" support for replicating Membase data over a WAN. However, one of our largest customers is doing just that and the Membase infrastructure will handle it if the WAN link will.
You will basically need to create a separate layer to take the TAP stream from the servers of one Membase cluster and send it over to the other cluster. In the current implementation, a TAP stream is basically "all or nothing" so if the connection is lost, you'll have to rematerialize the entire data set. With the next release, we plan on implementing timestamps which will allow for resuming a TAP stream
If you're going to go down this route, I would highly recommend obtaining an Entperrise license subscription as it will allow us to best support/help your efforts.
Thanks Chris, let me know how else I can help.

MONDAY, Sept. 13 (HealthDay News) -- For people with advanced
cancer, dying at home rather than the hospital results in higher
quality-of-life scores at the end of life, and may be easier on the
patients' caregivers as well.
A study published online Sept. 13 in the
Journal of Clinical Oncology found that compared to people
who died in intensive care units (ICU) or other areas of a
hospital, when people died at home, their loved ones were less
likely to develop post-traumatic stress disorder or prolonged grief
disorder, marked by intense, disabling grief that goes on longer
than six months.
"Where someone dies has important implications for those they leave behind," said the study's lead author, Dr. Alexi Wright, an instructor in medicine at Harvard Medical School and the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston.
"It's really important for people to articulate what they want. Dying at home may improve your own quality of life before death and it may improve your loved ones' grief after your death," she noted.
While most cancer patients prefer to die at home, that's not
always what happens, according to background information in the
study. More than one-third of cancer patients die in the hospital
and 8 percent die in the intensive care unit. Almost one-quarter of
Medicare costs stem from intensive care treatment during the last
month of life, according to the study.
To get an idea of whether the location where death occurs is
associated with a better quality of life for patients at the end of
life, and whether or not the place of death affects caregivers,
Wright and her colleagues recruited 342 terminal cancer patients
and their primary caregivers.
The cancer patients were interviewed at the start of the study,
which was a median time of about 4.5 months before they died. Their
caregivers were also interviewed when the study began and then
around two weeks after the death of their loved one to discuss the
quality of life experienced by their loved one at the end of life.
In addition, the bereaved caregivers were also interviewed 6 months
The researchers found that people who died in the ICU or other
areas of the hospital had more physical and emotional distress at
the end of their lives, and had a poorer quality of life, compared
to those who died at home with hospice care.
And, those who died at home appeared to have more well-adjusted
loved ones after the death, reported the study.
"The place of death and the amount of medical treatment received shaped the bereavement experience. There was a fivefold increase in post-traumatic stress disorder in people whose loved ones died in the ICU versus at home," said Wright. "While people may think that dying at home might be more frightening for caregivers, it may ultimately help them heal."
Wright's group also found that the risk of prolonged grief
disorder among those whose loved ones died in the hospital was much
higher -- almost 22 percent compared to 5.2 percent among
caregivers whose loved ones died with home hospice.
Wright said the differences may stem from the activities that
may take place in the hospital or ICU before death, due to the
frightening nature of aggressive lifesaving care, such as
cardiopulmonary resuscitation or mechanical breathing devices.
"This study wasn't surprising. If patients and family members are in a familiar and comfortable environment, they'll likely have a better outcome in terms of quality of life," said Dr. Steven Libutti, director of the Montefiore-Einstein Center for Cancer Care in New York City. "A clearly unanswered question, though, is how do we decide when we've reached the end of our likely successful therapies? When do you come to an acceptance that you've exhausted all reasonable possibilities and transition to end-of-life care?"
Other experts stress that quality of life is an essential
"Making the quality of life better for a patient with a terminal diagnosis is often more valuable than attempting to get an extension of life at the cost of quality," said Wright.

While the satellite images are good as is the overview the rest of it is very amateurish and the rain radar kept freezing and then it wouldn't let me exit the app, would love to support you but just too many problems at present

Really handy app thanks!
