Mistress Katja locked her slave's head in the smother box and then steps on the box - and his face - wearing her sexy leather boots. She loves how he moans in pain as she distorts his face under the powerful steps, but after a while she takes off the boots anyway and reveals a pair of socks she's been wearing for 3 days in a row! Trampling his face with these stinky socks is even more fun for her as the slave is clearly disgusted by the smell. In the end she also tramples his face under her pretty bare feet of course!
Princess Sandra is very concious about her weight - but she hates having to watch it all the time and wants to take it out on her poor slave. He has to lie down in front of a mirror and she gets right on his body. She tells him to guess her weight and punishes him for guessing it wrong. In the end she even steps on his face with her soft perfect feet.
Pumagirly loves trampling - especially trampling a man's cock! Today she ordered her slave to lay his cock on the kitchen table and tramples it under her converse sneakers. She steps on his penis again and again with the full weight of her sexy body and doesn't care if it hurts him or if she even makes it unusable!
Goddess Jessica instructs her slave to lie down on the kitchen floor and then she steps right on him wearing her sexy high heel boots and tramples him. The sharp heels of her boots dig deep into this weak slave's skin and cause him a lot of pain - but his goddess doesn't care. After a while she orders him to take off the boots and proceeds to trample him with her sweaty pantyhosed feet. She even steps on the slave's face and makes him smell her feet while enduring her weight!

|Venom Guard
Selection icon
|Male Security Guard
|Date added
|South Korea
28 June 2012
Taiwan/Hong Kong
|System name
Venom Guard is a male zombie introduced in the Z-VIRUS patch.
- After the Free Update patch, this zombie becomes a free default faction in all player's inventories.
Venom Guard is a male security guard who turned into a zombie due to the Z-Virus while working for an unidentified illegal research complex. Its body has been filled up with toxic substance as it was affected by chemical waste. It has the ability to harden its body and heal injuries when their HP is lower than 50%.
Venom Guard is similar to Heavy zombie (very high knockback resistance and low jump height). In terms of offensive strategy, Venom Guard is better than Heavy zombie due to its ability to heal and to reduce damage received by humans. It will explode on death, knocking humans away. The knockback power is further than Stamper's Iron Maiden.
- Venom Guard has 3200 health points and 300 armor points (3700 health points and 350 armor points with Strong Lifepower) in Zombie: The Union.
Using Venom Guard
- Use Hardening and Healing Skill when you are running out of health or when humans are using Deadly Shot ability as you can't get killed by a headshot when the Hardening effect is still on.
- In Zombie: The Union and Zombie Scenario when a Venom Guard dies its explosion will damage nearby enemies, making humans most likely to die if not from the explosion it might be from the fall.
- If player is on the verge of death, try to get as close as possible to human players since the explosion can harm and give human players several seconds of shock, which gives more time to teammates to infect the humans.
Engaging Venom Guard
- Fight Venom Guard with weapons which have high stun power, since they have a very high knockback resistance.
- Use Venom Guard's big body as an advantage because it has big hitbox.
- Don't ever try to kill Venom Guard at close range and always engage this zombie in a safe range as the shockwave may knock the player off the safe position or at human camps and gives the other zombies time to attack the player.
- It is not recommended to engage them with melee weapons since they explode upon dying which harms and possibly kills nearby players.
This zombie was released alongside Sting Finger, Forbidden and Z-VIRUS pacth on:
- South Korea: 28 June 2012 alongside M32 MGL and Big Tree.
- Taiwan/Hong Kong: 4 July 2012 alongside M32 MGL and Big Tree.
- China/Japan: 4 July 2012 alongside M32 MGL and Big Tree.
- Indonesia: 1 May 2013 alongside Tomahawk, Dragon Tail and Thompson Gold.
- Singapore/Malaysia: 22 May 2013 alongside M32 MGL.
This zombie was released as AI-controlled on:
- Turkey: 14 May 2014 (appears in New Zombie Shelter only).
This zombie was released alongside Free Update on:
- CSN:Z: 8 January 2015.
- Vietnam: 26 March 2015.
Using skill
- The code name in game files is boomerzb which refers to the Boomer from Left 4 Dead. Its behavior is similar to Boomer's, which is exploding upon death.
- The view model is the combination of Heavy Zombie's skin texture and Regular zombie's animations.
- In Zombie Mode, the body will be upright after death and doesn't explode if killed due to headshot.
- While the Hardening skill is active, you will be unable to use Healing.
- In Zombie: The Union both of its skills delay is 30 seconds, while in Zombie Mods the delay will be 240 seconds.
- This zombie is very hard to kill due to fast skill cooldown and replenish full hp at a glance.
- Despite its size, this zombie ironically runs faster than the Regular Zombie. However, he got the lowest jump above all.
- Before the Zombie Mode Rework patch, Venom Guard used to have another Healing skill that allowed it to heal anytime. It was replaced with the current one for game balanced purpose.

Book: ABDIRAZAK HAJI HUSSEIN: My Role in the Foundation of the Somali Nation-State, A Political Memoir
Author: Abdirazak Haji Hussein
Edited by: Abdisalam Issa-Salwe
Publication year: 2017
Page count: 412 Pages
Publisher: The Red Sea Press
Writing a book in which one interweaves one's own political history with that of the formation of the nation-state is an ambitious and challenging task, but this is the precisely the goal that Abdirazak Haji Hussein set himself in this autobiography, a project that, although he started it about forty years ago, is coming to fruition only now, several years after his death in 2014.
The 1950s, when Abdirazak, at the outset of his formal involvement in the political life of Somalia, began to keep notes for this autobiography, were precisely also the time when the Somalis were struggling to reverse the partition of Somali-inhabited areas by five colonial powers, Great-Britain (British Somaliland and Kenya's Northern Frontier District), Italy (Italian Somaliland), France (what is now Djibouti), and Ethiopia (the Haud and Ogaden, now Ethiopia's Region Five).
Abdirazak kept notes of the political processes and events in which he was involved as they were unfolding. This means that I had to put together this autobiography from a wide range of materials that Abdirazak wrote at different times in his life, many of them typed on old typewriters.
Abdirazak was a nationalist and it is the story of the formative years of the Somali nation (and not the Somali state or country) that he narrates in his autobiography. To him and the other Somali nationalists, July 1, 1960, the date on which the Somali Republic gained political independence through the union of Italian and British Somaliland, was only the beginning of the quest for the Somali nation-state, for the Somalis living in Ethiopia, Kenya, and Djibouti were still absent and unfree.
In the early days of the struggle for independence, African nationalists resented colonial rule and all the borders it had arbitrarily imposed. However, on achieving independence, the majority of the African states accepted the boundaries created by colonial rulers. The inviolability of the boundaries inherited from colonial rule was formalized by the member states of the Organization of African Unity at the organization's April 1964 meeting. Somalia objected to the resolution.
At that meeting, Adan Abdulle Osman, who was President of the Somali Republic from 1960 to 1967, and under whom Abdirazak served as Prime Minister from 1964 to 1967, explained the Somali case as follows:
Unlike any other border problem in Africa, [for Somalia] the entire length of the existing boundaries, as imposed by the colonialists, cut across the traditional pastures of our nomadic population. The problem becomes unique when it is realized that no other nation in Africa finds itself totally divided along the whole length of its borders from its own people.
Abdirazak was in the opposition when General Mohamed Siad Barre took power in a military coup d'état on October 21, 1969 and overthrew the civilian government in power then. Despite the fact that Abdirazak was not in office at that time, the military regime took him, as well as the former president Adan Abdulle Osman, to prison. Abdirazak remained in prison until April 4,1973.
In November 1973, the military regime appointed Abdirazak as Somali Ambassador to the United Nations. He kept this position until December 28, 1979 when he resigned from the post and requested and received political asylum in the United States. To support himself and his family, Abdirazak had to do menial work, first as assistant project manager at the New York Department of Health Management, and then as a security guard in a garment factory in New York. Thus it happened that the man who had served his country Minister of Interior (1960 to1962), as Minister of Public Works and Communications (1962 to 1964), Prime Minster (1964 to 1967), and Permanent Representative to the United Nations (1974 to 1979) became a garment factory security guard.
Although Abdirazak, because he had received political asylum, was not supposed to be a political activist, he never stopped his efforts to find solutions to the military dictatorship, the civil war that racked his nation and country from 1978 onwards, and the collapse of the state in the early 1990s.
Abdirazak Haji Hussein died on January 31, 2014. He was buried in Somalia with full national honors on February 6, 2014. In his will, Abdirazak asked to be buried in Mogadishu next to former President Adan Abdulle Osman. This shows how close the connection between these two great leaders was and remained.
Abdisalam Issa-Salwe
This book is about my life and how my lifespan had been intertwined with the formation of my country, Somalia. Writing about my nation's history is not an easy task, but I thought one way to do so is to narrate my experience through my own contributions to nation-state building. During the early days of my nation, there was a constant turmoil in the world as it spanned the era between the end of the First World War and the beginning of the Second World War. During this period, the world was changing very fast as new nation-states and state-nations (with which I mean states trying to create nations) were appearing in the world. One of these nation- states was my country. Many of the African countries initially followed the state-nation model rather than that of nation-state. But Somalia, and very few other African countries, was formed in a way in which the nation came before the state.
Developing outside the main stream of African thinking, our nationalism was based on an ethno-cultural entity embracing all Somalis. For us the creation of an independent Somali Republic on the 1st of July 1960 was only the beginning of our struggle for national unity by linking those Somalis formerly ruled by Italian and British colonial powers in Italian and British Somaliland. It excluded those living in Ethiopia, Kenya, and Djibouti (the latter becoming independent from France only in June 1977). Technically, the struggle was our expression of 'a nation in search of a state'. However, the policy of pursuing our deeply-rooted values or "core values" related to our "national self" made us the enemies of our neighboring countries, which opted to accept the boundaries determined by colonial rulers. During the struggle for independence, as African nationalists, we viewed the international borders inherited by our newly independent African states critically. The feeling of anti-colonial nationalism led us to resent all arbitrarily imposed borders as well as colonial rule. However, on achieving independence, the majority of the African states accepted the boundaries determined by colonial rulers; this meant define African countries according to the inherited boundaries.
In Chapter 1, I will introduce the reader to my early childhood. Similar to the majority of Somalis of my generation, my early life was fundamentally that of nomadic life. A nomad is a person who lives in an environment of constant movement and constant danger. Although we lived in an environment of sharp fluctuations between abundance and scarcity, what supported us was a particular form of solidarity, namely life in social hamlets in which many different families used to help each other and stick together in times of need. This way of life in social hamlets used to help us.
The events leading up to the UN Trusteeship in part of Somalia and the policies which shaped Trusteeship rule is my subject in Chapter 2. The years between 1940 and 1949 constituted the era when Italy and its allies lost the war as well as their colonial spoils to the Allies. In Chapter 3 I will discuss the Italian Trusteeship of Somalia (1950–1959) and the fate of other Somali territories in this decade. This period was also the time when Somalis were giving expression to nationalism in different forms at local and national levels. The first Somali government (1960–1964) forms the subject of Chapter 4. This period was the time when the Republic of Somalia was trying to formalize its structures by breaking away from the colonial legacy and the influence under which the two territories of British and Italian Somaliland had developed during the colonial period. In this chapter I will also examine the struggle of the missing Somali territories and how our politics were shaping the Somali nation-state in Africa.
In the early 1964, Somalia was experiencing the ups-and-downs of democracy as the country was having one of its local and the national elections. In Chapter 5, I will discuss the March 1964 elections, what shaped my premiership, and the political fallout of the practices and policies of the former government and the president. My premiership is the subject of Chapter 6. Here I look at the background of what influenced my premiership and ask how local politics influenced the political outcomes. Heeding popular complains about the government before mine, President Adan Abdulle Osman decided to alter the path of the state by selecting me to form a government.
In Chapter 7, I assess the impact of our foreign policy. The European colonial powers left us with a complex legacy of disorder when the majority of African states decided to form their newly independent states within the inherited colonial boundaries. For us, this decision was detrimental, as along the entire length of our existing boundaries were cut out of our republic Somali communities were cut off from, and left outside our Republic. As a nation, we could not accept the policy of delineating our nation-state within the artificial constraints of the inherited boundaries, and this impacted on our relationships with Africa, the East, and the West.
The change in the presidency of the nation is the subject of Chapter 8. In this period there was a change of government, as a new president has been elected and my government had lost the election. This caused me to move to the opposition and form the Somali Action Party (DAP).
Political pressure forced the new president and his prime minister to increase the number of ministerial posts. However, within a short time, the new president and his entourage found themselves in a political nightmare. Corruption became widespread and many people joined us in the opposition to counter the new government. The resulting crisis led to the sad event of the president's death and consequently the military coup.
Despite the political crisis of the late 1960s, there had been ups and downs in Somalia's nascent democracy, but on 21 October 1969 the military took over the country by way of a coup. By taking over the country's leadership, the military changed their role as gatekeepers to gatecrashers. The military soon started ruling the country by decree and controlling the executive, legislative and judicial organs. It also introduced sweeping legal and administrative reforms. Motivated by power lust, the military regime's extensive reforms led to control over the people in the name of national security, and the consolidation of the power of the SRC. A dictatorial form of authority was in the making. At this time the people could not yet perceive this.
In Chapter 11, I discuss my new life in the nation's changing contexts during military rule and afterwards. When I was released from prison, I wanted to adopt a different way of life than I had followed since I was twenty. In the Conclusion, I present my last words and outline my hopes for my nation.

National administration officers must not condone sexual abuse and traditional compensation but ensure rapists are tried in court, Interior PS Karanja Kibicho has said.
He commented on Wednesday following reports that a chief in Vihiga county attended an elders' meeting in which a 78-year-old man was fined just Sh17,000 and a cow for raping his six-year-old granddaughter.
"You are encouraging brutality by passing such verdicts. Who gave you such powers? Don't wait until I come for you, just come to the headquarters," Kibicho said.
He was addressing chiefs and assistants chiefs at Mbale Boys' High School in Vihiga. Kibicho warned that he would personally punish any chief who takes part in local meetings involving sexual abuse cases.
"There is a big conflict in execution of the law. Defilement cases cannot be negotiated at a chief's baraza. Let me not hear that a chief has engaged in such," he said.
On October 10, the parents of the six-year-old girl reported to Izava North chief Zachary Mwangala that their daughter had been defiled by her grandfather.
The chief told the Star that elders usually make judgments in such cases to avoid embarrassing the community.
Kibicho learnt of the case at a press briefing at the county headquarters just before he addressed the chiefs.
He said the chief should report to the headquarters in one week to show cause.
The girl's parents have said justice was not served by handing out a cow and Sh17,000.

Industrial Floor
Substrate preparation
Depending on substrate:
- Removal of old flooring materials
- Improvement of defective substrates where applicable
- Substrate preparation (milling, shot blasting, grinding, vacuum cleaning)
- Adoption of existing joints:- Limitation of liability if joints are covered and have not been carried over in the upper layer, as there is the danger of cracking during use
- Application of height marks
Apply two coats of weberfloor 4716 primer dispersion diluted 1:3 and 1:3 (concentrated primer; clean water) on to the substrate (concrete or cement screed).
NOTE: Some substrates might require more priming due to their porosity. If so prime first time with 1:5, for example. The primer must be brushed on to the cleaned substrate avoiding ponding.
Reinforcement (if required)
NOTE: If doubts exist regarding substrate strength, for example, substrate pull-off strength < 1.5 N/mm² (MPa), ALWAYS reinforce the base material using a bolted down steel reinforcement mesh.
A steel reinforcement mesh Ø 4mm, mesh 150mm should be bolted down on the substrate using a nail gun tool.
- Place a steel reinforcement mesh Ø 4mm, mesh 150mm on the substrate. Place a second mesh directly over the first mesh ensuring the steel rods are aligned to avoid overlapping. If necessary, trim off steel rods at the ends.
- Bolt each mesh down with 4 - 6 bolts. Use a perforated strip, approximately 5-10cm, to attach each steel reinforcement mesh to the next at the adjoining corner. Ensure each mesh is properly bolted down. The mesh should not rise up when walked on or during application of the self-levelling material. Wrap the perforated strip around the steel rods and bolt down. If not using a perforated strip, always attach the bolt together with a washer in order to keep the mesh bolted down.
Base layer (if required)
If the substrate is very rough and uneven, it requires a base layer. Use weberfloor 4600 industry base pumped on to the substrate to the required thickness in sections 6 to 8 metres wide. When filling the sections be sure to advance in strips, adding each new strip to the old as quickly as possible, so the material can merge. Afterwards, level out the surface while it is still fresh, using a notched trowel. Follow the product data sheet.
NOTE: Always pump the products with a continuous mixer pump. The volume of added water must be specified on the continuous mixer. Check the correct volume of water to be added before and after application (see Product Data Sheet).
Priming of base layer
- Apply two coats of weberfloor 4716 primer dispersion diluted 1:3 and 1:3 (concentrated primer; clean water) to weberfloor 4600 industry base.
- Apply the first primer coat as soon as the base layer can be walked on and the second coat as soon as the first coat is absorbed.
- The aim of applying the primer is to achieve a thin but tight membrane.
- Use a brush to apply the primer and also to remove any excess primer material from the surface.
- When the primer has formed a film on the surface, commonly after 2-4 hours, the top layer weberfloor 4655 industry flow rapid or weberfloor 4610 industry top can be applied.
Top layer
weberfloor 4610 industry top is pumped on to the substrate to the required thickness, normally 8-10mm, in sections of approximately 6 to 15 metres wide. When filling the sections, advance in strips so that each new strip is added to the next as quickly as possible to enable the compound to merge. Afterwards, level out the surface while it is still fresh, using a notched trowel.
Pump weberfloor 4655 industry flow rapid on to the base to the required thickness in sections of approximately 6 to 15 metres wide. When filling the sections, advance in strips so that each new strip is added to the next as quickly as possible to enable the compound to merge. Next, level out the surface while it is still fresh using a notched trowel. Interruptions to the work process must be avoided. Do not mix different batches for areas that are connected.
NOTE: Always pump the products with a continuous mixer pump. The volume of added water must be specified on the continuous mixer. The accuracy of volume of water added must be checked before and after the mixing process (see Product Data Sheet).
Additional recommendations
To ensure a straight joint between the sections, we recommend first pumping the material (weberfloor 4610 industry top, weberfloor 4650 design colour) into every second section (for example first, second...). Then removing the foam barriers and masking the two edges of the middle section with masking tape (minimum width 50mm) 6 hours after pumping at the earliest. Immediately after, pump the material into the remaining sections. Remove the masking tape after approximately 30 minutes.
Further recommendations
- Air dehumidifiers, draughts and too high temperatures must be avoided.
- weberfloor 4600 industry base, weberfloor 4610 industry top and weberfloor 4655 industry flow rapid are cement-based materials that may be used immediately. As a result, the shade of the hardened flooring surface may vary with use of different raw materials. Slight variations in colour may occur during the laying process due to, for example, fluctuations in the volumes of water added or surface processing.
- When impacted by dirt or liquid agents, the surface reacts like a dense concrete surface.
- Movement and expansion joints must be carried through from the substrate.
- In the case of industrial use, dummy joints may develop into spontaneous joints. When overlaying the dummy joints, cracks may occur.
- Cracks may occur due to the consistency of the substrate and if layer thicknesses are exceeded.
- Small hairline cracks may occur due to the building shape or the substrate. These are purely optical flaws and have no influence on the floor's adhesion or loading capacity.
- Early point loads during the first week may leave small indentures since the material is still in the process of curing.
- Rapid reconstruction of stores with cement-bonded floor coatings as final flooring material - for internal use.
- Total reconstruction time: Minimum 48 hours

The Furniture of Isaac Vose & Thomas Seymour, 1815 to 1825
Open 11 May to 14 September 2018 Details
Environmental History Seminar The Fight before the Flood: Rural Protest and the Debate over Boston's Quabbin Reservoir, 1919-1927 16 January 2018.Tuesday, 5:15PM - 7:30PM Jeffrey Egan, University of Connecticut Comment: Karl Haglund, Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation
In 1919, state engineers proposed solving Boston's water supply crisis by damming the Swift River, flooding a western Massachusetts valley and evicting 2,500 people. The contentious six-year debate that followed does not fit the standard story of urban conservationists versus rural peoples, as many valley residents defined themselves as rural and conservationist, and thus offers scholars a chance to see fresh nuances in early twentieth-century land management, rural life, and urban development.

Universities are established institutions with professional financial management procedures that are regulated and audited at national level. Therefore, EUA recommends embracing and making operational a trust-based approach that can support a greater alignment between European, national and regional programmes.
This is best achieved by improving acceptance of institutional accounting practices and EUA proposes to make it operational by providing beneficiaries with the following options:
Moreover, beneficiaries should be able to opt for new and simplified funding methods and be allowed to choose to continue using successful management systems already put in place in Horizon 2020. As guiding principles, such simplified funding methods should effectively reduce the administrative burden, ensure fair accessibility and competition, and ensure transparent financial management.
The recommendations put forward in EUA's report on impactful Framework Programme simplification build on EUA's work on sufficient, sustainable and simple EU Funding for Universities. The report draws its conclusions from the 2017-2018 EUA member consultation on new and simplified forms of funding introduced in Horizon 2020. Specific feedback from the EUA expert group of university practitioners active in European and national research funding programmes, as well as the results of the broader EUA consultation on the Horizon 2020 mid-term review also supported and complemented the report results.

London Borough of Lambeth v SSCLG and others [2017] EWHC 2412 (Admin)
DATE: 03 Oct 2017
Mrs Justice Lang gave judgment in an important case as to the scope for implying a whole new term into a planning condition, following the Supreme Court's decision in Trump International. Mrs Justice Lang has granted permission to appeal to the Court of Appeal. Mr Justice Holgate had on granting permission marked the case as a "significant planning court case".
The Court held that in principle a whole new condition could be implied into a planning permission, as the Claimant argued for. The Defendant Secretary of State's argument that such cases would in practice be rare and this case did not fulfil the legal tests for implication of whole new term was also accepted. The Interested Party's argument that the scope of Trump was restricted to an "incomplete condition" was rejected. The Court held "Although Lord Carnwath observed, at [47], that the Trump case, together with the cases cited, concerned "incomplete conditions", I do not consider that his guidance on implication was limited to "incomplete conditions" cases, though in practice such cases will more readily fulfil the legal tests for the implication of terms."
Mrs Justice Lang, in granting permission, remarked:
I do not accept the Claimant's critique of my judgment, and the application of the current law to the facts of this case. However, I am left with some unease about the result. The principle established in I'm Your Man Limited v Secretary of State for the Environment 77 P & CR 251, and its application, merits consideration in a higher court which is not bound by precedent in the same way as the High Court. The interpretation and application of the judgments of the Supreme Court in Trump International Golf Club Scotland Ltd & Anor. v The Scottish Ministers [2015] UKSC 74, [2016] 1 WLR 85 is still evolving, and merit consideration by the Court of Appeal in this case.
Further information
The Claimant applied under section 288 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 to quash the decision of the Defendant, made on his behalf by an Inspector. The issue was whether the current planning permission, which was varied pursuant to a s,73 application in 2014, permitted unrestricted retail use for the sale of all goods (including food), or whether it restricts retail use to the sale of non-food goods. The retail use had been restricted prior to the variation of planning permission in 2014 by express conditions. The description of use on the varied condition referred to a restriction on the use for the sale and display of non-food goods only, but the conditions which were imposed "subject to the conditions listed below" did not include such a restriction. They were a time limit condition imposed to comply with section 91(a) of the TCPA, a car parking condition, and a traffic survey condition,
The Claimant had three grounds of challenge. The first two grounds of challenge were:
Interpretation of the permission. The Claimant argued that the 2014 permission should be interpreted in a manner which restricted the permission to use for the sale of non-food goods only, which the Claimant argued was consistent with the objective meaning of the words used.
Implication of a condition into the permission. The Claimant argued that a condition should be implied restricting the use of the premises to the sale of non-food goods, to achieve which was obviously intended by the parties and to give "business efficacy" to the grant of planning permission. The Defendant accepted that following thee judgments given by the Supreme Court in Trump International Golf Club Scotland Ltd & Anor. v The Scottish Ministers [2015] UKSC 74, [2016] 1 WLR 85, conditions could in principle be implied into a planning permission, such a course would rarely be appropriate. The Defendant argued that the criteria for the implication of a condition were not met in this case. The Second Interested Party took a narrower view of the effect of Trump and subsequent cases, submitting that they only envisaged implying terms into an existing condition, not adding a new condition.
The Court:
There was also a third ground of challenge. The Claimant also submitted that Condition 1 was valid, as the "development" in issue was not the implementation of the initial 1985 permission but the implementation of the 2014 permission, permitting a variation of use. Such a condition could be imposed under the general power in section 72 TCPA 1990, even if it was not required pursuant to section 91(1) TCPA 1990. The three year time limit expired in November 2017. The Court rejected this ground of challenge, on the basis that on an application under s.73(1) the only "development" was the principal development to which the condition is attached. In this case, the principal development was the construction and use of the DIY store pursuant to the 1985 permission. Further, it was clear from the face of the 2014 permission that Condition 1 was imposed pursuant to section 91(1) TCPA 1990, not section 73 TCPA 1990. Section 91(4) TCPA 1990 excluded the application of the section "to any planning permission granted for development carried out before the grant of that permission". It was of no effect.
Matthew Reed QC appeared for the Claimant.
Sasha Blackmore appeared for the Secretary of State.
Christopher Lockhart-Mummery QC appeared for the Second Interested Party.

A judge has denied a request to ban Kim Kardashian and her sisters from bashing Haven Beauty bosses in a legal battle over a failed make-up collaboration.
Company officials have been fighting with the reality TV stars ever since they distanced themselves from the brand's Kardashian Beauty collection, a range which they had initially planned with the support of the siblings.
However, Kim, Khloe and Kourtney subsequently backed out of the deal when they failed to receive the royalties they were allegedly owed, and then insisted they had no involvement whatsoever in a fresh range of Kardashian Beauty products, which were launched by Haven Beauty chiefs earlier this month (Jul16), despite the legal dispute.
Executives responded to the Kardashians' claim by filing a new $10 million lawsuit against the siblings for breach of contract. They also requested an order barring the stars from making "damaging" comments about the cosmetics company in public.
The Kardashians hit back with their own countersuit, accusing bosses of profiting off the use of their last name without providing any compensation.
The case went before a judge this week (begs18Jul16), and the sisters scored an early legal victory after the motion for an injunction was thrown out of court as Haven Beauty heads had failed to honor their payment agreement, reports TMZ.com.
The company's damages claim remains ongoing.

Former Wootton wide receiver enjoys life as a Super Bowl champion
- Published in Sporting View
Former Wootton wide receiver Mack Hollins is a Super Bowl champion.
The Rockville native celebrated the Philadelphia Eagles' 41-33 victory over the New England Patriots Sunday in Super Bowl LII at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis.
The Eagles' rookie wide receiver and special teams contributor earned a Super Bowl ring in his first season on the job. Not a bad way to begin your NFL career.
Wootton head coach Eddie Tolliver said he watched the entire game from start to finish and beamed with pride over his former pupil.
"It just shows if you put the hard work and effort into it where you can go," explained Tolliver, who noted that Hollins took a roundabout way to the NFL.

Mouth Guards
Mouth guards are protective coverings that are to be worn over your teeth, so as to protect it from injury as well as during any sporting activities. This could include rugby, football, and various other contact sports.
3 Types of Mouth Guards
There are three types of mouth guards that can be found on the market:
Generally speaking, most of the mouth guards cover the upper portion of the teeth. There are some exceptional cases which you would be able to get out that for the lower teeth also.
Always follow the suggestion of the dentist to get the best mouth guard to ensure its effectiveness, comfortability and durability.
It should also be easy to clean, so that you can get rid of any accumulation of bacteria after a hard day of work. It should also not create any restriction for your breathing or cause speaking difficulties.
If you have the habit of grinding your teeth at night, then there are special mouth guards also known as a bite splint or the nocturnal mouth guard that can be created on the normal mouth guard. This helps to prevent any tooth damage.

Jason learned to DJ around the age of 16 and grew up around music as his mum and dad were keen lovers of Reggae and Soul.
He was inspired to start mixing by watching his uncle on Technics 1200's making two records sound like one with films like Wild Style and Beat Street also being a major influence
Over the years of buying records he has a vinyl collection which consists of everything from Hardcore to House
After years of attending Hardcore and early Jungle events in and around London Jason's tastes moved more towards the House sound which in 1995 led to him joining a leading underground pirate radio station.
Some of his most memorable moments in his earlier career as a DJ were playing Jungle for a sound system and playing at World Dance two years in a row.
In the studio he has made tracks for years under different aliases, one being Calenda and another to name but few being Quantech as well as releasing as Jason H and has collaborated with the likes of MJ Cole, Qualified and Spectralband amongst others. Although not having released anything in a while now Jason plans to work on new material in the near future!

Starting June 6th, 2018, Pennsylvania residents will no longer be able to fly with their PA driver's license.
As an attempt to prevent further terrorism and unlawful entry into the country after September 11th, Congress passed the REAL ID Act. This act established, minimum-security standards for state-issued driver's licenses and identification cards and prohibits federal agencies from accepting for official purposes from states that do not meet these standards. Each state is therefore required to incorporate anti-counterfeit technology and strategically incorporate a star somewhere on the license to signify compliance. Applicants will also be required to present a photo ID document, valid birth certificate, social security number and proof of legal U.S residency to verify their identity when renewing/applying for a license.
Pennsylvania and six other states are currently not in full compliance with these REAL ID requirements. Participation at the state level is voluntary because this mandate is unfunded by the federal government. The financial obligation will rest solely on the state. According to PennDOT Secretary Leslie S. Richards, "We are out of compliance for limited technical reasons and because existing state law bars us from fully complying." Pennsylvania will need more time to make additional system changes to accommodate a fully compliant REAL ID.
So until then, prepare yourself for June 2018. Unless you live in a state that is already compliant with REAL ID requirements or has received an extension, you will need to provide an alternative form of identification. It is also important to note that this will only affect adults 18 years and over, who are required to show a valid form of ID at airport security.
Here is a list of TSA acceptable forms of identification to use instead of your PA Driver's License:
- U.S. Passport
- U.S. Passport Card
- U.S. Military ID
- Permanent residence card
- Airport issued ID
It is important to note that Pennsylvania residents will still be able to use their state-issued driver's license at the airport until June 6th, 2018.
For a complete list of TSA acceptable identification, please visit the TSA website:

A Detroit-based artist and a Bloomfield Township-based real estate company have reached an agreement that will allow Katherine Craig's colorful "The Illuminated Mural" to remain in place on the side of a Milwaukee Junction building.
In a joint statement provided to Crain's, Princeton Enterprises LLC's law firm in the case, Southfield-based Jaffe Raitt Heuer & Weiss PC, said the building at 2937 E. Grand Blvd. is under contract to Detroit-based The Platform LLC, which "has agreed to honor — and extend — a previous agreement allowing 'The Illuminated Mural' to stay on the side of the building for several years to come."
Crain's reported last month that The Platform — founded by Peter Cummings and Dietrich Knoer — has the building under contract.
The building, built for the Detroit Storage Co. a century ago, sits just east of the northern terminus of the QLine streetcar project. That makes it a prime redevelopment prospect in a neighborhood just east of the New Center area, which has attracted considerable real estate investment recently due to the rail project and a shortage of quality multifamily rental housing in the greater downtown area.
Craig, whose nine-story mural adorns the western wall of the 73,000-square-foot building, sought an injunction in a January 2016 lawsuit under the federal Visual Artists Rights Act of 1990 barring the destruction of the mural, created in 2009.
"I'm really happy we got a break-through with 'The Illuminated Mural' where we are able to protect the work and maintain the original contract, which was the goal," Craig said Friday afternoon. "It's respect for the artwork that's there and the future of the community, and the developer as well. We reached a middle ground there that I am happy with."
The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Detroit, said the mural was in danger because Princeton Enterprises, whose founder and CEO is Matt Lester, put the building up for auction in 2015 (it did not sell) and has considered redeveloping the building into multifamily housing. It is currently vacant.
Lester declined comment.
The lawsuit said Craig received $33,000 in funding from the College for Creative Studies Community + Public Arts: Detroit program for the project.
It also said that after Craig received the CCS funding, she searched for properties to house the mural, eventually reaching an agreement with Dennis Kefallinos' Detroit-based Boydell Development Co. to put the mural at 2937 East Grand. Boydell owned the building at the time.
According to the lawsuit, a contract was signed, with Boydell agreeing the mural would "remain on the building for no less than a 10 years time period." Craig, the lawsuit says, "never 'expressly agreed' to a waiver of her lifetime rights of attribution and integrity" under the federal law. She has provided subsequent property owners with paperwork notifying them of her copyright on the mural obtained in 2012, according to the lawsuit.
More than 100 gallons of paint were used for the mural, as were some unique items to apply it, including fire extinguishers and salad dressing bottles, according to the lawsuit.
The Visual Artists Rights Act allows visual artists to protect their work from "any intentional distortion, mutilation, or other modification of that work which would be prejudicial to his or her honor or reputation."

Idris Jala clarifies use of Pemandu operating budget
Posted on 1 November 2010 - 02:53am
Datuk Seri Idris Jala
PETALING JAYA (Oct 31, 2010): Minister in the Prime Minister's Department and Pemandu chief executive officer Datuk Seri Idris Jala has refuted claims of Pemandu using an operating budget of RM729 million to pay international consultants.
"Pemandu's operating budget for 2011 is RM40 million. This claim that the amount is RM729 million is 1,822% exaggerated," he said in a statement on Friday.
According to him, the RM729 million consists of operating budgets for Pemandu (RM40 million), National Key Result Areas (NKRA) (RM334 million) and National Key Economic Areas (NKEA) (RM355 million).
"Out of the total budget of RM729 million, RM334 million is parked under Jabatan Perdana Menteri (Prime Minister's Department) because this expenditure covers initiatives that cut across various ministries and agencies.
"For example, RM265 million is for financial support for the hardcore poor of about 22,000 households under the NKRA for Low Income Households for the entire 12 months in 2011. None of this money is paid to consultants as alleged," he said.
Under the 'Low Income Households' project, money will be paid as financial support directly to hardcore poor families after taking into account the full impact of the efforts by participating ministries such as the implementation of Azam Tani by agriculture ministry.
The money is then released for each family based on the e-kasih report by Internal Coordination Unit (ICU) and verification by the Welfare ministry and Pemandu before actual distribution is made via Pos Malaysia.
Final decisions for spending the money is done collectively by the NKRA Steering Committee, he added.
Meanwhile, Pemandu's RM40 million operating budget comprises manpower costs / emoluments; services and supplies; assets under existing and new policies; one-off payment for non-recurring items including costs of conducting labs, open days, workshops, surveys, consultancy fees, research and benchmarking exercises; travel and logistics; and media costs.
Idris also refuted claims of a new government ministry called "Kementerian Idris Jala" which has been allocated RM12 billion and is a waste of public funds.
He said RM12.22 billion is the 8% investment provided by the government in the form of infrastructure and financial incentives/support under the Economic Transformation Programme (ETP) aimed at making Malaysia a high-income economy. The ministry expects the private sector to make up the remaining 92% investment.
"This is revenue generating expenditure and in no way a waste of public funds. We need to spend to grow the economy and increase our gross national income.
"The total 2011 NKEA budget, covering operating and development expenditures, amounts to RM355 million and RM5.5 billion respectively. For 2012, a further RM6.4 billion has been allocated for development expenditure," he added.
Idris said it is difficult to implement the ETP as it requires the nation to transform rather than conduct business as usual and in addition, compete with other nations for investment, market access and talent.
"Our economy used to grow at between 8% to 9% but since 1997, our annual growth has been only around between 4% and 5%. With greater focus under the NKEAs, if we can grow at 6% per annum, we can become a high-income economy by 2020," he said.
Idris added that claims of the MRT project's traffic study being outsourced to third-party contractors with vested interest are not true, adding that open competitive tender is the default process in awarding contractors, except for direct negotiations with land owners to acquire land along the route.
"The traffic study was never outsourced to Gamuda-MMC. MinConsult, an independent consultant commissioned by the Ministry of Finance (MOF) has just completed their independent study, including the analysis of Gamuda-MMC's proposal which includes MRT network design and alignment, proposed governance structure options and methods for awarding contracts which is then further subjected to competitive tender," he said.
He added that all MRT projects comprise many sub-projects which would be parceled out in separate packages to be tendered out to ensure the best outcomes in quality and cost.
Idris added that the study has not been presented to the Economic Council as the mechanism for selecting and awarding contracts for the MRT project has not been finalised. -- theSun

Trips 2003
Newbottle Spinney
7th November 2003
Due to the cold clear conditions, the Northamptonshire Moth Group trip to Newbottle Spinney (SP53) resulted in only two common moths being recorded. As the area is under-recorded both were new to the grid square.
17th October 2003
The Northamptonshire Moth Group trip to Fineshade (SP99) resulted in fifteen species being taken, the most significant moth being Red-green Carpet C. siterata. Records for this species have markedly increased throughout the county over the past decade.
Ravensthorpe Reservoir
19th September 2003
The Northamptonshire Moth Group trip to Ravensthorpe Reservoir (SP67) resulted in sixteen species being taken; nothing of any significance.
Pitsford Reservoir
15th August 2003
The Northamptonshire Moth Group trip to Pitsford Reservoir (SP77) resulted in thirty-nine species being taken. The most significant moth seen was a singleton of the immigrant Bordered Straw H. peltigera.
Fermyn Woods
18th July 2003
The Northamptonshire Moth Group trip to Fermyn Woods (SP98) resulted in seventy-four species being seen. The most significant moths were singletons of Fen Wainscot A. phragmitidis and False Mocha C. porata, both local in the county.
Salcey Forest
13th June 2003
The Northamptonshire Moth Group trip to Salcey Forest (SP75) resulted in seventy-five species being recorded. There were no species of particular note. After several years of decline in this former stronghold, it is perhaps significant that The Concolorous P. extrema was not seen. It was also not recorded at a Humbug meeting at Woodwalton Fen on 20th June 2003.
Hazelborough Forest
9th May 2003
The Northamptonshire Moth Group trip to Hazelborough Forest (SP64) resulted in a 28 species catch. Notable species included one Scarce Prominent O. carmelita, the first record of the species in the forest and in the grid square. Also recorded, eighty Great Prominent P. anceps, already known from the site and easily the most common moth on the night. This is further confirmation that this species comes to light more readily than other moths of late spring when cool clear conditions prevail.
Old Sulehay Wildlife Trust Reserve
18th April 2003
The Northamptonshire Moth Group trip to Old Sulehay Wildlife Trust Reserve (TL09) resulted in a 25 species catch. This included three Small Waved Umber H. vitalbata, local in the county and two Frosted Green P. ridens, a moth more associated with the county's southern woodlands.

Sheaths and Beans
What could I possibly add to a topic that has been written about in every horse magazine ever published? Is regular cleaning of a gelding's sheath important for his health, or just a waste of time? This article is my perspective on the topic, with some situations that I have run into over the years.
First, here is a one paragraph anatomy and physiology lesson. The sheath is a thick double fold of tissue whose function is to protect the penis. It is like a collapsible telescope. When the penis is extended, the folds of the sheath disappear and become part of the penis. The sheath has some glands in its lining that produce a waxy secretion. When mixed with dirt and old dead cells, it's called smegma. It smells about the way it sounds. At the end of the penis, close to the urethral opening that carries urine out, is a small cavity that you can just get the tip of your finger in. Its official name is the urethral diverticulum. It doesn't have a common name that I am aware of, so let's call it the bean pocket. Smegma tends to collect and compact in that pocket, and like play dough, it takes the shape of that space. The smegma dries over time and when you get the tip of a finger in that cavity and work the smegma out, it looks like a bean, which is what it is called. Part of cleaning the inside of the sheath is the removal or "popping" of that bean. Cleaning the sheath without removing the bean is not really completing the job and can lead to down the road problems.
One early morning this spring I was called out to examine an 18 year old gelding who hadn't eaten breakfast and was mildly painful. The owner had given him Banamine paste over an hour before, and although he seemed better, there was a concern because he still wasn't right. I already had a full day, but agreed to come out right away and had Lizzy call our scheduled clients to say that we would be late.
When I got to the farm the horse had just made manure, but still seemed distracted. His temperature, pulse, and respirations were all normal and there were good gut sounds on both sides. Everything was checking out OK, so I didn't understand why he seemed restless. I did a rectal exam, but couldn't get very far in because his bladder was so big. I gave him an IV diuretic so that he would urinate. He soon became even antsier, and acted just like a person who has to pee but knows that the nearest McDonalds is still 5 minutes down the road. Finally his urine came out in a huge stream, and his relief was immediate. I did another rectal, and found all the intestines in place and nothing distended. We watched him for a bit and then I left to drive to my first scheduled call. About two hours later his owner called my cell.
"Hey, I know what was bothering that gelding."
"Go ahead, tell me."
"I called my wife at work and she said that since we've had him he has never had his sheath cleaned, so we did that, and found a monster bean. Hey, this thing was the size of a walnut, and we had to break it up to get it out. He's been 100% ever since."
I hadn't made the connection between that full bladder and the real reason for it. I suspect that the huge bean distended the end of his penis enough that he didn't really want to urinate, but the diuretic in his system finally gave him no choice.
Several years ago I ran into a peculiar lameness that made no sense. The horse had been off for several weeks before I was called. On examination I could see that the horse was off behind, but his gait didn't fit any of the usual patterns. We decided to do a more extensive work up in a week, but before I left we gave the horse his annual vaccines and cleaned his sheath at the owner's request. He had a bean that was good sized and quite hard. She called the next day and said that he was totally sound. Was it the bean? I'm pretty sure it wasn't the vaccines, and there were no other changes, so yes, I think so. This isn't a common cause of lameness, but I have had this happen just enough over the years to believe that a large bean can cause discomfort which can be expressed in different ways.

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 137276
RFE: allow more format choices for various installs
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:10:53 EST
Description of problem:
I keep a copy of rawhide on disc. To test the rc trees, I figured
I'd save time and bandwidth by just syncing it to the rc1 tree, then
booting off a copy of the rc rescue cd to do a local disk install...
But NOOOOO, it had to have copies of the ISO images on disc. A tree
with all the packages wasn't good enough for it.
Ok, whatever. So I try an http install, and point it to the iso/
directory on testing.fedora, since it just said it wanted iso
But NOOOOO, now it wants a tree with the packages, instead of iso
I did switch it to the os/ directory and the http install then worked
fine. But in case it's not blatantly obvious where I'm headed here,
I think either format of the data (isos or package tree) should work
with any retrieval method the installer supports.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
anaconda-10.1.0.0-1 as of this writing.
ISOs are preferred in almost all cases, but aren't usable for HTTP/FTP
installs as I can't loopback mount an ISO via FTP/HTTP.
