Extractive Industries and Local Development in the Peruvian Highlands: Socio-Economic Impacts of the Mid-1990s Mining Boom
Since the late Nineties, the mining sector in Peru has been experiencing a protracted period of rapid growth. This paper investigates local impacts of the mining boom on migration, on access to basic services, on labour market and on occupational distribution across sectors. By applying propensity score matching technique, mining and non-mining districts are compared. The results show that recent mining expansion has encouraged migration inflows to mining districts and affected the sectoral composition of the labor force in these areas. However, despite the great expectations and the new institutional and legislative settings, the mining growth has not produced a multiplicative effect on non-mining and non-agricultural activities and did not boost a process of economic diversification towards non-primary sector. Finally, the analysis shows a significant heterogeneity in impacts on labour opportunities and on access to basic services across rural and urban areas, and between districts with a long history of mining exploitation and new mining areas.

An ambulance took Haden to his doctor. Though the initial reports said that Haden collapsed, the school's account of what happened is different. The Trojans' statement said that Haden did not collapse, but "felt lightheaded," and compared the episode to when Haden felt lightheaded at the Trojans' game against Notre Dame last October: Advertisement Advertisement Haden was walking back from an on-campus meeting this morning and felt lightheaded, similar to how he felt at the Notre Dame game last October. He sat down outside Heritage Hall and the athletic department's medical personnel attended to him. Haden was alert and talking as he walked under his own power up to his office in Heritage Hall. Medical personnel continued to attend to him there before transporting him to his doctor off campus.Last Friday, school president C.L. Max Nikias had announced that Haden would be stepping down from his role on June 30. Photo: AP Contact the author at email@example.com repliesLeave a reply

Yesterday, the Eighth District Ohio Court of Appeals affirmed the dismissal of a putative class action raising claims against a noteholder, mortgage servicer, and law firm under Ohio's Consumer Sales Practices Act ("CSPA"). In Glazer v. Chase Home Finance L.L.C., 2013-Ohio-5589 (Ohio App. 2013), the Eighth District held that servicing defaulted mortgage loans is not a "consumer transaction" subject to the CSPA. The court also reinforced that there is no private right of action to enforce alleged violations of R.C. 1319.12, a statute imposing certain regulations on debt collectors. The court's ruling limits the exposure of the mortgage servicing industry to class action litigation in Ohio—a substantial win given that Ohio was one of the epicenters of the foreclosure crisis.
The plaintiffs alleged that the defendants violated the CSPA by prosecuting a foreclosure case in which they allegedly wrongfully held Chase (the putative noteholder) out as a noteholder when the note was allegedly still held by Fannie Mae. The plaintiff argued that the CSPA applied because the defendants were "suppliers" under the CSPA, made material misrepresentations in a residential mortgage consumer transaction, and engaged in unfair and deceptive debt collection practices.
The court rejected this argument, relying on the Ohio Supreme Court's recent decision in Anderson v. Barclay's Capital Real Estate, Inc., 136 Ohio St.3d 31, 2013-Ohio-1933, 989 N.E.2d 997, that residential mortgage servicers are not covered by the CSPA. While the plaintiff attempted to distinguish Anderson, reasoning that Anderson focused on "primary mortgages" rather than mortgages that had gone into default or foreclosure, the Eighth District rejected that distinction because Anderson expressly held the "management of loans in default" was not covered. As a result, the court found the foreclosure-related actions were not "consumer transactions" and dismissed the plaintiff's CSPA claim for lack of standing. Likewise, for similar reasons, the court also found that mortgage servicers were not "suppliers" subject to CSPA.
The court also addressed a claim the plaintiff brought for alleged violations of R.C. 1319.12, a statute which authorizes the assignment of certain creditor claims to collection agencies and sets forth requirements for those collection agencies to commence litigation to collect such claims. The plaintiff argued that one of the defendants was a collection agency and was liable to the plaintiff for alleged violations of the statute. However, the court again was not persuaded, finding instead that no private right of action existed because "a private right of action is not presumed where no remedy is provided for in the statute."

Wedding jewelry is a big part of our wedding traditions. Engagement rings, wedding bands and bridal jewelry all add sparkle and shine to getting married. When you are planning a wedding, you have many wedding jewelry choices to make. Engagement rings and wedding rings are both integral to the process of marrying, and most brides and grooms like to add wedding accessories to their gowns and tuxedos on the big day. Whether you are looking for a simple set of matching wedding rings or you want to find the perfect bridal jewelry to wear with your gorgeous wedding ball gown, our tips about wedding jewelry is a great place to start.
Do our wedding rings need to match?
Not necessarily. Bridal rings and wedding bands can fit the style preferences of the wearer. Some couples prefer to have matching bridal rings; many ring sets are available that include rings for the bride and groom or a pair of commitment bands. Otherwise, you can keep the sentiment of a matched set by choosing rings crafted of the same metal or by having each ring engraved with your names, a saying or the wedding date.
What are the best materials for the wedding bands?
The group of metals used for wedding jewelry has expanded in recent years, and each metal has its positive qualities. Gold is the most traditional material and is the only metal with a warm, yellow color. Other traditional choices include white gold, platinum and sterling silver, all of which can be polished to a brilliant shine. Many contemporary jewelry designers eschew the precious metals in favor of the industrial metals, such as stainless steel, titanium and tungsten. The industrial metals are more common in men's wedding bands than in women's rings. Platinum, titanium and tungsten are stronger than gold and silver. The industrial metals also resist scratching better than the precious metals. Some people are allergic to gold or silver. On the other hand, platinum, tungsten, surgical stainless steel and titanium are hypoallergenic.
How do we care for our wedding rings?
Your wedding rings will keep their shine for a lifetime if you take proper care of them, and they actually require little maintenance. For metal bands and diamond rings, clean them occasionally by soaking in a mild solution of water and dish soap. Use a soft brush to clean the diamonds and the settings. Rinse the rings in fresh water and dry them with a soft, lint-free cloth. Visit a professional jeweler every few years to have the settings on diamond rings checked for loose stones or damage. A jeweler can buff and polish a metal band that has been scratched, tarnished or discolored.
How can we be sure our rings will be perfect and ready for our wedding day?
Retailers have their own guidelines for returning, resizing or altering engagement rings and wedding bands, and you need to understand these policies before you complete the transaction. In addition, purchase wedding rings at least two months before the wedding, if you have the time, in case you need to have rings adjusted. This timeframe gives a jeweler time to have rings custom-fit to your specifications.

Helen of Troy might have been the face that launched a thousand ships, but Marks & Spencer reckons Dame Helen Mirren's is the face to flog a thousand dresses.
Or quite a few more, if possible. In May, M&S posted its lowest full-year profits since 2009, a slump in clothing sales sending pre-tax profit down 6 per cent to £665.2m.
Now the 129-year-old high street stalwart has dumped its "faces" of the past few years, Twiggy and Myleene Klass, and instead splashed out on the fashion photographer Annie Leibovitz and a campaign featuring "Britain's Leading Ladies". The retailer's new clothes horses are the artist Tracey Emin, Brick Lane's author Monica Ali, the Olympic boxer Nicola Adams, creative director of American Vogue Grace Coddington, the ballerina Darcey Bussell, supermodel Karen Elson, singer Ellie Goulding and the charity campaigner Katie Piper, as well as Dame Helen.
Marks & Sparks' gathering won't come cheap. And it might not even succeed, according to Tony Quinn, chief strategy officer of the advertising giant Publicis. "Celebs can work very well for brands – they give glitter and fast-track brand recognition," he said. "But it all goes tits up when a brand that's struggling to find its way says 'let's grab a celeb to fix sales'.
"That's happened with Morrisons and Ant and Dec, and there's a bit of that feeling about M&S too – a sense of, 'we're not quite sure what we're about, so we'll try to be something for everybody'. It's a scattergun approach to building a brand – chuck enough celebs at people in the hope that something will hit."
So how do you choose a face for your brand? There are two ways, according to Ralph Scott of the brand agency CDW & Partners, whose clients include M&S. First there is "brand reinforcement – picking personalities that align with what a brand already stands for", and second there is "brand repositioning, as M&S is doing, where you try to use celebrities to take the brand in a direction where it's perceived in a different light.
"By picking Annie Leibovitz [a photographer for Vanity Fair], M&S is moving in baby steps to try to secure more of a high-end fashion focus."
Importing the kind of Hollywood glamour captured by Ms Leibovitz is another big trend in advertising, according to Richard Thompson, head of the talent division at the ad agency M&C Saatchi. "A lot more Americans – serious Hollywood A-listers – are doing ads over here than, say, five years ago, like Kevin Bacon for EE [the mobile phone group], Al Pacino and Jennifer Aniston for Sky," he said. "Brands are looking for a very big sledgehammer to crack a walnut, and they want to break into multiple territories, so they're going for the big guns."
Elsewhere, the mobile giant HTC has a new campaign featuring Robert Downey Jr, and Jean-Claude Van Damme is flogging Coors lager. The stars are clearly doing it for the money, but, Mr Thompson added, "they also see the UK as a far-off territory. Would Pacino do that kind of ad in America? Probably not, but he feels OK doing it here. Taking the talent away from their main territory means they don't get diluted."
There can be a problem with picking a well-known face for your brand, however – what the industry calls the "Lance Armstrong issue" but could also be applied, lower down on the notoriety scale, to Tiger Woods. "You're held horribly hostage to the behaviour of that celeb," said Mr Quinn at Publicis. "That's great when Lance is clearing up on the Tour de France, but not so good when he's tangled up in a doping scandal."
Brands try to protect themselves against the risk of their name becoming tarnished through association with the personal life of a celebrity with "death and disgrace" clauses – warranties against bad behaviour. "M&S's use of multiple celebrities mitigates against some of the potential issues," said Joseph Petyan, an executive partner at the ad agency JWT London. But it could also create other problems: "With competitor brands such as Littlewoods employing their own raft of celebrities, one can't help but wonder how distinctive and differentiated this approach is. One thing is for certain: celebrity is no substitute for a proper brand idea."
Certainly, celebrities and brands are not always compatible. "The biggest mess was John Cleese for Sainsbury's," said Neil Saunders, the managing director at the retail analyst Conlumino. The Monty Python and Fawlty Towers comedian was filmed shouting loudly about cheap offers, but "the supermarket had previously prided itself on quality," Mr Saunders pointed out. "Cleese's anarchic yelling about cheap deals actually hit sales. The supermarket chose him to be a face of their brand in a bid to be a bit irreverent and wacky, but customers saw Sainsbury's as more serious, middle of the road." The ads were noticed in the City. They were referenced in analysts' notes. Shares fell. Mr Cleese was axed.
So watch out, M&S, and don't get too reliant on your stars either. "It overwhelms the message," said Mr Quinn. "I did a lot of work with David Beckham and Adidas. He began by being the face of a particular boot, the Predator, which was all about precision, and Beckham's glorious goals from the halfway line meant he was the perfect expression of the brand. But eventually, I think Beckham became bigger than Adidas."
Perhaps M&S should have opted for a cheaper solution –one that would negate the possibility of the face of a brand being embroiled in a drugs scandal, or becoming so successful that fees soar. "Pick a meerkat," said Mr Quinn, "it won't get involved in a scandal. And it's a lot easier to negotiate on fees with a meerkat."
The perfect model? It's Kate Moss
From her 1993 ad for Calvin Klein's Obsession to this year's St Tropez fake-tan campaign, Kate Moss has been probably the most in-demand face for advertisers in modern times.
Even being photographed apparently about to vacuum a line of cocaine up her nose in 2005 only dented demand for her services temporarily. So what is the pull?
Brandon Leigh, the finance director at St Tropez owner PZ Cussons, says his team had specifically wanted to push the lotion into the fast-growing markets of Brazil and the US as well as Europe, where it was already established.
The supermodel was one of the few faces famous and cool enough in all of those countries for the campaign to work: "Kate is an international star," he says. Editors, recognising their audience's appetite for "anything Kate" gave acres of coverage to the St Tropez brand in glossy magazines, newspapers and TV shows, from Rio to New York City to Berlin. The fact that she posed naked added to the editorial allure, of course. Sales in Brazil and the US spiked instantly.

Ependymomas are tumors of the brain and spinal cord. Treatment approaches and mortality rates for this disease have changed little over the last twenty years, highlighting the great need for new therapies. Histologic similarities among ependymomas have led investigators to treat these tumors as a single entity;but we have shown that ependymomas from different regions of the central nervous system include discrete clinical and molecular subtypes, suggesting they are different diseases. Thus, contemporary efforts to cure all patients with ependymoma must be concerned with understanding the biological basis of these disease subtypes, and where necessary, developing subtype-specific therapies. During the last funding cycle we developed a cross- species genomics approach that characterized genomic subtypes of human ependymoma and matched these with neural stem cells in the mouse to generate accurate models of the disease. We will build on this work to complete three Specific Aims designed to test the central hypothesis that 'Ependymoma subtypes are driven by distinct cell signals that can be targeted for therapeutic gain.'Aim 1 will employ new 'virus-pool'screens to test the in vivo oncogenic role of the top 90 candidate oncogenes and 40 tumor suppressor genes that we previously identified in ependymoma. We will thereby generate a 'clinic'of mice that recapitulate the full spectrum on human ependymoma subtypes.
Aim 2 will interrogate the models developed in Aim 1 using high- throughput drug screens, kinome-wide binding and cell biology assays to pinpoint the key cell signals that maintain each ependymoma subtype that might therefore serve as therapeutic targets. Integration of these data with genetic analyses of human and mouse tumors will further validate candidate drug targets. Future clinical trials of therapies that target signals identified in Aim 2 will demand the selection of patients with the appropriate disease subtype. Therefore, Aim 3 will develop a robust Affymetrix Quantigene assay to reliably and rapidly diagnose ependymoma subtypes using formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue.
The failure to progress the treatment of patients with ependymoma has resulted from a lack of preclinical models and a drug development process that does not account for the discrete subtypes that comprise the disease. Our proposal will develop highly accurate mouse models of the full spectrum of ependymoma and use these to identify robust drug targets and diagnostic tools for subtype-specific clinical trials.

High Speed Internet Providers – South Carolina
South Carolina Internet Speed Test
Today's internet requires broadband speeds: dial-up access is no longer fast enough for anything more than text-based email tasks. If the user wants to share photos, communicate through social networking, shop, download movies, and watch steaming and live video, high speed access is a requirement (remember: check your bandwidth performance regularly with an Internet speed test). For South Carolina residents, broadband connections are readily available through different technologies —cable, satellite, T1 or bonded T1, and DSL — from many internet service providers (ISPs).
Cable internet is available to any business or residence that is wired for cable television connections. All that is required is a cable modem — connected to the user's computer — and an account with a cable ISP, like US Cable, Time Warner Cable, Comporium, Comcast, Charter Communications, and Adelphia.
Available anywhere in South Carolina that there is a clear view of the southern skies, satellite internet provides a broadband connection to consumers who do not have access to other high speed technologies. The user will need to have the equipment professionally installed, including the satellite modem and the satellite dish that works as a receiver and transmitter. Some satellite ISPs in South Carolina are HughesNet, StarBand, SkyWay USA, and WildBlue.
T1 and Bonded T1 Lines
The broadband internet options that work for many businesses — large and small — are T1 or bonded T1 lines. The T1 technology allows for multiple users to be sending and receiving information at the same time, at very high speeds. Some of the companies offering T1 lines to the state are Qwest, TW Telecom, and One Communications.
Digital subscriber line, DSL for short, internet access is a way of providing broadband connection speeds over the existing telephone lines. The technology divides a single line into high and low frequencies, so there is no bleed over, and the user can utilize the same line for talking on the phone while they are viewing websites. DSL ISPs serving South Carolina include AT&T, BellSouth, and Frontier, as well as SBC Yahoo! DSL and Verizon.

Agreement between Canada and the Netherlands Antilles for the exchange of information relating to tax matters
The OECD welcomes the announcement today of a package of measures between Liechtenstein and the United Kingdom intended to ensure effective exchange of information for tax purposes between the two countries and to address the important issue of undeclared funds in a cooperative way.
In the past two days Belgium has signed protocols to its tax conventions with Luxembourg, Singapore, San Marino, and the Seychelles as well as a tax convention with the Isle of Man and a tax information exchange agreement with Monaco
The Kingdom of Bahrain has recently signed double taxation conventions with Bulgaria (26 June 2009) and Austria (2 July 2009) that provide for exchange of information in accordance with the OECD standard. These agreements bring to 12 the number of agreements that Bahrain has signed that meet the OECD standard. As a result, Bahrain can be considered as having substantially implemented the internationally agreed standard in this area.
Luxembourg has signed a protocol to its double taxation convention with Norway, bringing to 12 the number of agreements it has on exchange of information for tax purposes.
Article for the OECD's Observer (June 2009), written by Jeffrey Owens, Director of the Centre for Tax Policy and Administration.
The financial crisis might not have been caused by taxation, but it nonetheless raises concerns about evasion, compliance and transparency in financial markets. The OECD Observer asked South Africa's minister of finance, Pravin Gordhan, who chairs the OECD's Forum on Tax Administration, to explain.

Hmm. Did you try using the Eclipse update manager thingy? Does Photran have an update site?
Yes, you should compile from source. There are some issues around building arbitrary Eclipse plug-ins from source (see [1], for example), but with a bit of help, we should be okay on this one. We can worry about adding native compilation later, so in the meantime, look at one of the specfiles for the plug-ins we ship in FC (bugzilla, pydev, changelog, cdt) for some inspiration (you can ignore most of the stuff in the gcj_support if blocks).

Why not junction=mini_roundabout?
Would not the key 'junction' be more appropriate than 'highway' for mini-roundabouts since this tag is only applied at the intersection of two or more ways? Also it would fit in better with junction=roundabout. --Milliams 18:36, 21 August 2007 (BST)
- +1 Gorm 02:06, 20 December 2009 (UTC)
Roundabout Names
Is there any facility to add a name to a roundabout -- the main roundabouts here in Basingstoke, UK are named.
- Certainly. Add the 'name' tag to the roundabout with the name in it. Morwen 20:45, 27 October 2007 (BST)
Is there any standard / common practice on naming roundabouts in the middle of a longer road?
See here: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?way=30877938
==Knossou Avenue====(o)====Knossou Avenue====(o)====Knossou.. etc.
I believe they should have the same name as the bigger road. Zeptomoon 18:07, 1 September 2010 (BST)
- As I understood it, the roundabout is a junction and therefore, does not belong to any of the intersecting roads. Consequently it should not carry the name of any road (bigger or smaller). --ALE! 19:49, 1 September 2010 (BST)
- The intersection itself might be named, independently and differently from the roads crossing it. For example Prinsenkrysset in Trondheim, Norway. (Intersection of Prinsens Gate and Kongens Gate. If the roundabout is named in such a manner, than name=* is on its place. --Skippern 21:48, 1 September 2010 (BST)
Junction Names
A junction does not necessarily have a roundabout and can still have a specific name independent of the road names. For the moemnt I've just put a 'name' tag on the junction. --Le top 09:42, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
The number of points
The example shows some roundabouts and uses "just" 4 points. In the map a typical roundabout has 8 or more points be drawn. It might make sense to add a good hint on how many points are sensible to use (i have seen rounabouts with 30+ points) Flohoff 12:55, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
- In my opinion roundabouts should have as many nodes that it takes to give it a round shape. Compare with how you draw a twisty road section. --Erik Lundin 22:53, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
- It would be nice if JOSM could create a circle with 12, 16, 24, 32 or 48 evenly spaced points. Alas, it creates paltry 8 points. I have painstakingly (by following, ungluing and rotating) created a 16-pointer which I keep copying and pasting around. T99 (talk) 19:17, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
- iD does circles - and squarifies things.
- You can add any number of nodes you need to create correct connections with connected streets, notably when there are traffic islands separating the directions, and get the correct shap. On large roundabouts, this helps navigation by more explicitly saying to drivers when to place themselves on the external lane to exit the roundabout. This may be useful also when there are special service lanes (for cycles, buses, tramways, sometimes subways and railways) crossing the central island, which may have the priority to the other vehicules turning around. Just place additional nodes anywhere, then select the ring and press "O" (in JOSM or iD) and all nodes will be aligned on a circle and equally spaced (except onodes for interconnection which will keep their anggular position on the circle.
- So you can just start drawing a roundabout using 4 nodes (or 8 nodes if there are trafic islands for separating oneway access/exit ways: place first these connecting nodes. Press O, and a few nodes may be added (this avoids non realistic sharp angles with more than 45 degrees). Add enouch nodes so that segments will not pass through the central island and will keep the direction within the outer lane. Press O again if you have added a few more nodes. Generally with about 16 nodes you get a much better look in all scales (with angles flattened with less than 15 degrees) and this works for most roundabounts. Very large roundabounts may need mode nodes to fit the outer lane correctly. It may also be useful to draw the central island and tag its landuse=* (such as grass) or surface, or other elements on this island (trees, light poles, statue, fountain, sometimes footways...). 8 nodes is generally suitable only for miniroundabouts. 4 nodes is generally insufficient and not realistic as they produce too sharp angles (more than 90 degrees on at least one node).
- Note that a some roundabouts are clearly oval, or are half-circular only on two sides, the two other sides being mostly straight; a few ones may be found that are lightly "8-shaped" (often created by interconnecting two successive roundabouts to create a single one, without needing more land space). These unusual shapes are still useful to represent correctly as they provide hints about the direction to take and where/when to exit the ring. In those cases, the fast "O" keyboard shortcut will not work properly.
- For these reasons there's no standard number of nodes, the precision needed largely depends on the ratio between the outer and inner radius and the number of generic lanes on the ring (most roundabouts have two lanes, roundabouts with only one lane are normally only mini-roundabouts, whose central island is still traversable by long vehicles such as buses and trucks).
- So just place nodes correctly to fit the outer lane of the ring, and correctly place other features you may want to to locate around the roundabout (signals, crossings, postal boxes, recycling containers, bus stops, trafic calming, sometimes even trafic light within the ring itself...) — Verdy_p (talk) 06:56, 29 July 2016 (UTC)

highway=*-tag of a roundabout
Old text said: "If the larger road ends at this roundabout (so all other connecting roads are smaller), the roundabout should probably get the same highway=* tag as the smaller roads."
No, that was not a very good idea.
If a "larger road" ends at a roundabout then there must still be more traffic on any segment of the roundabout (traffic from the larger road plus traffic from the smaller roads) than on either of the directions on the larger road. So, the roundabout should be of the same class as the larger road.
- Not necessarily. E.g. the roundabout at the end of a motorway is usually not part of the motorway itself - and is more likely to be something like trunk or primary. I've changed it to "usually". Richard B 16:22, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
- Motorways would certainly be the exception - whatever's at the end of a motorway should generally not be tagged as motorway. Similarly, slip roads should be excluded when thinking of the "larger road" - a roundabout where "trunk" meets "primary" should be "trunk", but if it's grade-separated with slip roads the roundabout should be "primary". Such is my opinion, at least. Chriscf 16:30, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
I think the currently documented rule is overtly simplistic. It does not cover all possibilities. For example, what if there are three tertiary highways terminating at the roundabout and one residential highway going through? Obviously, trying to cover all possibilities could make the rule very complex. Therefore, it has to be taken only as a guideline. The mapper will have to use his/her best judgment to evaluate the significance of not only each of the highways but also that of the roundabout. By the way, I think the guideline for roundabouts should be similar to those for links. T99 (talk) 21:46, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
I think we need an example for how to tag a relation (e.g tags needed for the ways and tags needed for the relation)--skyper 13:46, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
- I see very little use for adding such relation, maybe someone can enlighten us... Surely it's simple to group together consecutive ways tagged with junction=roundabout, before using them for any purposes needing a single entity for each roundabout? Alv 14:08, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
ref tag
Is it correct to remove ref tags from roundabouts? I personally think that this is ok as a roundabout is a junction and therefore belongs to two or more different roads. But please correct my reasoning if I am wrong. I want to get a second opinion on this. --ALE! 22:24, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
- Is the highways parts of relations? In that case the ref is protected by the various highway relations, and not really needed on each road segment. If not, than maybe all the road refs should be included. But what about roads that starts or ends in a roundabout, should their refs be extended to the roundabout, or is this really only valid for roads crossing a roundabout? I tend to tag only the refs of roads passing the roundabout. --Skippern 08:43, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
- I think the situation is analogous to the 'Roundabout names' issue discussed earlier: the roundabout does not belong to any of the roads and should therefore not have road refs on it. To be more concrete: if you're crossing a roundabout from one minor road to another, it just causes confusion to be told that you have to drive some metres on say a primary road with such and such number. And IMHO, adding refs from all classified roads would be just like including all the road names, just leading to even higher levels of confusion! However, as with names, if a country gives numbers to roundabouts themselves, then these can of course be tagged. I strongly agree with ALE, who started this topic, but I see a lot of misleading tagging here so it would be really good to get some clear guidance into the wiki itself. --JeffH 21:19, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
- I guess it varies from country to country. F.ex in Norway, an intersection (no matter if its a roundabout or not) is usually funded, named, owned and maintained by the same agency/department as the road 'highest' class of two roads crossing. In those cases, using the same ref=* on a roundabout as the "master road" would be quite correct. --Gorm 19:55, 4 June 2012 (BST)
- The ref= should be handled analog to the name. It is not uncommon in the world that roundabouts have a given name and ref. As per definition the roundabout is a junction e.g. interconnects multiple streets. So it is per definition not exclusive part of one of the streets so it should not carry the name or ref of one of the connected streets. Flohoff (talk) 18:03, 7 November 2014 (UTC)
Two editors confused by roundabout instructions
Just a suggestion for improving this article. I was mapping my first roundabout today, and I wasn't sure whether the following applied to the roundabout I was working on:
If a road is split into two separated carriageways (one approaching, one departing), draw those explicitly and tag these carriageways (not the roundabout) with oneway=yes. Pay attention to their correct orientation and use separate nodes of the roundabout for the approaching and departing road.
Does this apply to all roundabouts that connect to two-way streets? What does this look like in practice? I decided to just connect the normal residential roads to the roundabout circle that I'd made, and not split anything, but I don't know if I did the right thing. And then later today, another editor asked a related question on IRC: "If a highway approaches a turnabout junction, do we split the way into two oneways? And if we do it, how to add both the oneways in a relation so that continuity (in the relation) is preserved?"
Since both of us were confused, it sounds like this page could be improved with an example or other additional explanation for that section. Also, the other editor and I were both unfamiliar with the term "carriageway"; we had to look it up while reading this page. Thanks! Brittag (talk) 05:52, 1 September 2013 (UTC)
- I believe the intent here is that this applies where there is a significant island, or other protected area, between the two carriageway, i.e. they are physically separated. Although some people like to micromap everything, I think that an ordinary residential road is best mapped as a single way. -- Hadw (talk) 14:22, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
Bypass lanes for nearside turns
I've come across a roundabout where at least some of the exits have a left (nearside) lane that has priority over traffic on the roundabout for traffic that is leaving at the next exit. That breaks the normal UK rule that traffic on the roudabout has priority. I'm not convinced that the right approach is to split that lane off before the roundabout, as lane changes to or from it are possible along its whole length, and tend to be the only safe approach for bicycles. -- Hadw (talk) 14:13, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
- On further reading, it turns out the real problem here is that this is actually a traffic circle and not a roundabout! -- Hadw (talk) 15:10, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
Tag:junction=traffic_circle should be explicit
The article currently says that traffic circles should not be tagged at all. However, it seems that people expect satellite navigators to tell them to turn off at the nth exit, but satellite navigators aren't clever enough to infer that a feature is a traffic circle and therefore has exits. This, combined with a general failure to read and understand the section on what is not a roundabout, is almost certainly resulting in mis-tagging of traffic circles as roundabouts. -- Hadw (talk) 11:54, 5 January 2014 (UTC)
- this has been sorted with the introduction of junction=circular after discussion on the tagging list. junction=traffic_circle is ambiguous and could easily be confused with regular roundabouts. --Polarbear w (talk) 17:06, 24 November 2016 (UTC)
Circular and widened road features vs Tag:junction=roundabout
There overlapping content, is there option to cleanup pages in less duplicate manner? Xxzme (talk) 18:29, 10 November 2014 (UTC)
- The "Circular and widened road features" were written as a template that had been embedded in the pages of the different tags involved.--Polarbear w (talk) 17:06, 24 November 2016 (UTC)

Changes to federal rules prohibiting discrimination on the basis of disability may help create job opportunities for people with disabilities, but advocates say companies also need disability-friendly work environments. The new rules, which set hiring goals for federal contractors, allow people with disabilities to self-identify on employee paperwork, but consultant Joyce Bender said companies still must show that hiring workers with disabilities is a priority that starts with corporate leadership.
Siblings of people who have disabilities networked and shared stories at a conference in Pittsburgh hosted by the nonprofit Sibling Leadership Network. Executive director Katie Arnold said siblings often are overlooked when a family member has a disability. The group provides a support system and is trying to widen the focus of the Family and Medical Leave Act so they can take unpaid time off work to provide care for their siblings.
A study has found that preschool-age children who have autism respond favorably to a small robot that was programmed with prompts to help teach and reinforce social skills that might otherwise be taught by a therapist. "A therapist does many things that robots can't do," said Nilanjan Sarkar, a Vanderbilt University mechanical and computer-engineering professor who worked on the study. "But a robot-centered system could provide much of the repeated practice that is essential to learning."
Some Texas school districts could cut staff, increase class sizes and reduce budgets for professional development and assistive technology if anticipated cuts to special education and Title I take effect. "We are all in a dilemma of how to meet the needs of students that we're required to meet, but not given the funding to do. It's a double-whammy," said Robbie Stinnett, special-education director for the Duncanville Independent School District.
Of 256 doctors' offices in four major U.S. cities, 20% said they could not make an appointment for a patient in a wheelchair, noting in many cases an inability to assist the patient from the chair to the exam table. Researchers said doctors need to be reminded of their legal obligations for patient accommodations under the Americans with Disabilities Act.

If you are looking for a camera app that focuses on silent shooting and sending, then this may be one for you to check out. Snap multiple pictures in complete quiet. Convert exposures and set the app to auto-focus and timing. Although it isn't perfect, it's a capable app.
There are a number of features that enhance the singular purpose of this app. It does what it advertises itself to do quite well. Minus missing feature problems, the app generally performed well, with quick load times and smooth operation.
The ads can be a bit intrusive for such a simple app. The sound effects are a little tinny. The picture quality is sacrificed for faster shutter speed.

Calli Cox is so beautiful and so well matched with Myne who is such a great actor; the guy always delivers. His pop shot in this was well aimed for Cox but I was a little disappointed that she spat it out, that's a non non as far as I am concerned especially with an actor of Myne's calibre.3 years ago0Reply

Pranic Healing® is a highly evolved and tested system of energy medicine developed by GrandMaster Choa Kok Sui that utilizes prana to balance, harmonize and transform the body's energy processes. Prana is a Sanskrit word that means life-force. This invisible bio-energy or vital energy keeps the body alive and maintains a state of good health. In acupuncture, the Chinese refer to this subtle energy as Chi. It is also called Ruach or the Breath of Life in Hebrew.
The Tibetan Master Djwhal Khul said, "All disease is a result of inhibited Soul Life... The art of the healer consists of releasing the Soul, so it can flow through the aggregate of organisms which constitute any particular form. The true and future healing is brought about when the life of the Soul can flow without impediment and hindrance throughout every aspect of the form. It can then vitalize it." What this means is, the more abundant the flow of spiritual energy (Soul Life) coming into the body through the crown chakra, the faster the rate of healing.

Hay fever; Nasal allergies; Seasonal allergy; Seasonal allergic rhinitis; Allergies - allergic rhinitis; Allergy - allergic rhinitis
Allergic rhinitis is a diagnosis associated with a group of symptoms affecting the nose. These symptoms occur when you breathe in something you are allergic to, such as dust, animal dander, or pollen. Symptoms can also occur when you eat a food that you are allergic to.
This article focuses on allergic rhinitis due to plant pollens. This type of allergic rhinitis is commonly called hay fever or seasonal allergy.
Blooming flowers and blossoming trees are signs that spring has arrived. But for some people, those blossoms and blooms are also signs that allergy season is under way. And that means months of sniffling, sneezing, and runny eyes ahead. You may know that you have allergies as soon as you step outside on a spring day, eat peanuts, or pet your dog. Signs of an allergy may include trouble breathing, teary eyes, hives, itching, or vomiting after you come in contact with your allergy trigger. Your doctor can also do allergy tests to find out whether you're allergic, and what triggers your allergies. The most common type of allergy test is a skin test. The doctor puts a small amount of different allergy-causing substances under your skin. Then you wait for signs of a reaction, like swelling or redness. You might also have blood tests to check for chemicals that are related to allergies. So, how are allergies treated? There are a few medicines you can buy at your local drugstore or your doctor can prescribe to treat your allergies. Antihistamines prevent histamine chemicals from triggering allergy symptoms. Decongestants shrink swollen blood vessels throughout your body, including inside your nose, perhaps helping you breathe easier. Steroid drugs reduce swelling and inflammation. And Leukotriene inhibitors block the substances that trigger allergies. If your allergy is really bugging you, your doctor may give you allergy shots. When you take allergy shots over time, eventually they can help your body get used to the substance so you don't over-react to it in the future. Usually you can relieve allergies by taking medicine and avoiding whatever it is that triggers them. But in some people, allergies to insect stings or certain foods, like peanuts, cause a life-threatening reaction. This is called anaphylaxis. And if you have a life-threatening allergic reaction, call immediately for emergency medical help.
An allergen is something that triggers an allergy. When a person with allergic rhinitis breathes in an allergen such as pollen, mold, animal dander, or dust, the body releases chemicals that cause allergy symptoms.
Hay fever involves an allergic reaction to pollen.
Plants that cause hay fever are trees, grasses, and weeds. Their pollen is carried by the wind. (Flower pollen is carried by insects and does not cause hay fever.) Types of plants that cause hay fever vary from person to person and from area to area.
The amount of pollen in the air can affect whether hay fever symptoms develop or not.
Hay fever and allergies often run in families. If both of your parents have hay fever or other allergies, you are likely to have hay fever and allergies, too. The chance is higher if your mother has allergies.
Symptoms that occur shortly after you come into contact with the substance you are allergic to may include:
Symptoms that may develop later include:
The health care provider will perform a physical exam and ask about your symptoms. You will be asked whether your symptoms vary by time of day or season, and exposure to pets or other allergens.
Allergy testing may reveal the pollen or other substances that trigger your symptoms. Skin testing is the most common method of allergy testing.
If your doctor determines you cannot have skin testing, special blood tests may help with the diagnosis. These tests, known as IgE RAST tests, can measure the levels of allergy-related substances.
A complete blood count (CBC) test, called the eosinophil count, may also help diagnose allergies.
The best treatment is to avoid the pollens that cause your symptoms. It may be impossible to avoid all pollen. But you can often take steps to reduce your exposure.
You may be prescribed medicine to treat allergic rhinitis. The medicine your doctor prescribes depends on your symptoms and how severe they are. Your age and whether you have other medical conditions, such as asthma, will also be considered.
For mild allergic rhinitis, a nasal wash can help remove mucus from the nose. You can buy a saline solution at a drug store or make one at home using 1 cup (240 milliliters) of warm water, half a teaspoon (3 grams) of salt, and pinch of baking soda.
Treatments for allergic rhinitis include:
Medicines called antihistamines work well for treating allergy symptoms. They may be used when symptoms do not happen often or do not last long. Be aware of the following:
Allergy shots (immunotherapy) are sometimes recommended if you cannot avoid the pollen and your symptoms are hard to control. This includes regular shots of the pollen you are allergic to. Each dose is slightly larger than the dose before it, until you reach the dose that helps control your symptoms. Allergy shots may help your body adjust to the pollen that is causing the reaction.
Instead of shots, medicine put under the tongue may help for grass and ragweed allergies.
Most symptoms of allergic rhinitis can be treated. More severe cases need allergy shots.
Some people, especially children, may outgrow an allergy as the immune system becomes less sensitive to the trigger. But once a substance, such as pollen, causes allergies, it often continues to have a long-term effect on the person.
Call for an appointment with your provider if:
You can sometimes prevent symptoms by avoiding the pollen you are allergic to. During pollen season, you should stay indoors where it is air-conditioned, if possible. Sleep with the windows closed, and drive with the windows rolled up.
