Socks over knee with stripes
Stripes are a pretty traditional type of pattern. But thin stripes always look really cool. They have a way of moving and creating shapes and shades completely unique to them. The types of movement and optical illusions that an over knee sock with thin stripes create are overly fun to see.

Forget luxury iPad cases, French fashion house Pierre Cardin have created a tablet computer that combines the world of fashion and technology in one stylish package.
The Pierre Cardin tablet claims to combine an elegant design with user-friendly technology, running on the popular Android operating system with the usual tablet features we've come to know and expect like 3G and WiFi capability, USB port, camera, touch screen and to top it all off, it comes with a stylish monogram case.
"Tablet PCs are becoming an essential accessory for today's busy lives on the go. However, technology does not need to be cold and boring," said Kam Kothia managing director of the UK's sole distributor of Pierre Cardin Tablet PCs – eBusiness UK.
"Pierre Cardin epitomizes the belief that great design can enhance everything from clothes and luggage to furniture and living spaces. We are delighted to be launching the first designer-branded tablet PC into the UK market. Following the successes of the Prada and Armani brands with their mobile phones, we strongly believe there is a strong market for our tablet PC."
Measuring in at 19.5cm x 12.3cm x 1.4cm (Inches: 7.7 x 4.8 x 0.6), it's smaller than the Apple iPad2, making it more handbag or briefcase friendly. The Pierre Cardin tablet only available in the UK right now, priced at a tidy £275. Find out more information at PierreCardinTabletPC.co.uk.
It should be interesting to see how the Pierre Cardin tablet sells, much like its fashion designer & mobile phone counterparts, we don't expect it to light the world on fire, but for Pierre Cardin and fashion fans (like Lady Gaga and Nicole Richie) it is another option on the market.

Whilst some opt for the traditional route when it comes to their wedding reception, others prefer to stand out from the crowd and go for something a little different. If you find yourself in the latter camp then the following 5 East London venue options are definitely worth considering.
As is alluded to in its name, Copa de Cava is the very first dedicated cava bar in the whole of the UK, found just a few minutes from the iconic St Paul's Cathedral. Having only been open since 2013, it has very quickly cemented itself as one of London's most interesting and unique venues. Nestled amid brick vaults, the atmosphere is thick and unlike that which you will find anywhere else in the city; a real nod to a true Catalan bodega. With a late license, facilities for either a DJ or live music and plenty of nearby transport links, your guests should have no problems having fun or finding their way home!
The vast ceiling height and dramatic marble columns immediately grant Banking Hall a sense of prestige and glamour, ideal for making you feel special on your big day. This huge and highly flexible event space can accommodate up to an impressive 800 guests, lending it to large scale gatherings and it has already been used as the backdrop for all sorts of different occasions and when you see the striking beauty of its Art Deco styling, it's easy to understand why. Just a stone's throw from Bank tube station, it is also handy for those who have to travel from throughout the city.
If you really want to impress at your wedding then Drapers' Hall is the venue for you. Nothing short of stunning, the breath-taking decorative ceilings, striking artwork and abundance of beautiful features throughout mean that there is something to surprise and delight no matter where you look. Having hosted all sorts of events over the years, from operas to fashion shows, this historic venue is fit for royalty, so there is no doubt that you will feel rightly special on your big day. Despite all its glamour, it is still a practical choice, with a generous 700 person capacity and several nearby transport links, including Liverpool Street Station.
Swan Wharf is a Victorian warehouse complex which features a range of indoor and outdoor spaces which total 25,000 square feet, allowing for an impressive maximum capacity of more than 2800. Based on the River Lea, it also benefits from wonderful views of the Olympic Park. Of the 2 main spaces, one features exposed brickwork, high ceilings and full views of the waterfront, whilst the other is a bistro complete with an indoor bar and an outdoor terrace.
Found on the top floor of a former cardboard box factory, Dalston Heights is rich in texture and has become a popular setting for photographic projects for its arresting urban look. The 2 main areas are supplemented by a generous make-up and styling room, plus a separate kitchen; handy when it comes to organising the catering. A quirky and eclectic mix of props and furniture help to set the scene and add a sense of fun to the space, which all-in-all can take up to 250 guests.

A smile costs nothing, is it true? Know it from a Cosmetic Dentistry Specialist in NYC
Time is changing and so do the meanings of philosophical thoughts are. Whoever said, "Smile costs nothing; he must have never been to a dentist." Although a smile costs nothing but yes a good and wide opened smile does have prices to pay, and it is completely a matter of choice. In recent years, the demand for looking young and eye-catchy has soared like stock's line graphs of NASDAQ. New Yorker are tending towards face lift surgeries, eyelid surgeries, nasal surgeries and many more, but these all are practically useless without a cosmetic dental surgery and only a Cosmetic Dentistry NYC expert can help with this.
What is cosmetic dental surgery?
In general, dental surgery is a surgery, which is defined as an alteration made for modification or correction of teeth and jawbones. There are different types of dental problems that are treated with this procedure such as tooth-whitening, dental implants, porcelain veneers, tooth colored fillings, root canal therapy, extractions, scaling, dentures, Jaw and inlay or onlays.
Why do we need a cosmetic dental surgery?
It is obvious that smile is first thing that everybody appreciates and if one shy from offering it, opportunities will shy from him too. Although, this surgery is all about treating dental problems, yet the major concern of this surgery always remained in perfection of a smile. This surgery comes with heaps of benefits listed below:
The first benefit of this surgery is that, "it delivers what it promises". Precisely, people who had to cover their smiles with their hands in order to conceal broken or chipped teeth are now free for confident chuckles. This surgery can fix all those broken and chipped teeth and can remove the discoloration as well.
Unquestionably, confidence plays a vital role and is an important factor for success. Many people, who were battling with their low self-esteem due to their appearance (Dental), have gained back their confidence with these surgeries.
How much this cosmetic dental surgery costs?
It will be dishonest to say that this surgery is not expensive. The cost of a treatment fairly depends on the type of surgery to be performed by a Cosmetic Dentistry NYC surgeon. There may be countless cosmetic dentists in or around city offering their cheap priced services, but one should always remember, "If you throw peanuts, you will only get monkeys."
How long this cosmetic dentistry alteration lasts?
It is hard to determine the exact age for any medical treatment including dental surgeries, but on an average, these treatments last for 10 years to the minimum.

Bending Sheet Metal (Part 1) Sport Aviation / Experimenter "Technically Speaking" Article April 2017
Bending Sheet Metal (Part 1)
We are often surprised by the number of aircraft builders who seem to be intimidated by the process of calculating bend allowance, setback, and simply creating a flat layout for bending a simple part. In this article we are going to back up a bit, and provide some of the theory necessary to understanding how we go about the process of converting a flat piece of sheet metal into a complex sheet metal component. Learning to accurately layout and bend sheet-metal is a very useful exercise. Once you have mastered the process, you will find that it not only saves a great deal of time, but also can save you a great deal of wasted material.
To start with, let's examine some of the properties of aluminum sheet metal used in aircraft. The two most common alloys of aluminum used in the experimental aircraft world are, 6061 T6, and 2024 T-3. 6061 is one of the least expensive and most versatile of the heat-treatable aluminum alloys. 6061 T6 has a tensile strength of approximately 40,000 psi. It has good corrosion resistance in comparison to 2024 T-3. And current cost per square foot of .040" is $2.53. On the other hand, 2024 is one of the best known of the high strength aluminum alloys. With its high strength, about 50,000 psi tensile strength in the T-3 condition, it is used on structures and parts where good strength-to-weight ratio is desired. Since corrosion resistance is relatively low, 2024 is commonly used in clad form ("Alclad") with a thin surface layer of high purity aluminum. The cost of 2024 T-3 is about 50% more than 6061 T6 aluminum, costing about $3.94 per square foot for .040" sheet.
Understanding the properties of each of the aluminum alloys becomes very important during the sheet-metal layout and bending process. In particular, the malleability and ductility. By definition, ductility is a solid material's ability to deform under tensile stress. And malleability is a material's ability to deform under compressive stress. The ductility of 2024 T-3 is about 18%. When bending aluminum around a radius, we can see that we are both stretching one side of the aluminum (ductility), and compressing the other side of the aluminum, (malleability). (Figure: 1). Extensive testing has shown that the "neutral axis" (neither, under compression or tension) during the bending process is about .445 times the thickness of the material. The smaller the radius that the metal is bent around, the greater the differential between the neutral axis and the outside arc of the skin. Additionally, the greater the thickness of material, the greater the differential between the neutral axis and the outside arc of the skin. Stretching the outer skin beyond its limits will normally result in cracking. Of course, there isn't a necessity for calculating the minimum bend radius because most sheet-metal manuals, including AC 43.13-1B, have a minimum bend radius chart available for quick reference. (Figure: 2)
The tool, which we use for bending sheet-metal, is called a "brake". A sheet-metal brake used for aircraft aluminum has either fixed or interchangeable jaws with a very specific radius built into the jaws. In our shop, we use a 1/8 inch radius which allows us to bend up to .063" 6061 T6 aluminum. This allows us the ability to bend the majority of sheet metal sizes used in small experimental aircraft. Understanding the necessity for utilizing a radius during the bending process will, now, help us to understand how to calculate bend allowance. Bend allowance is nothing more than the amount of material that is used for the bent portion of the sheet-metal. The radius of the bend at the neutral axis is the tooling radius + (.445 times the thickness of the sheet metal). Multiplying the radius times 2 will give us the diameter, and multiply that times pi (3.1415) will give us the circumference. Taking the circumference and dividing by 360° will leave us with a dimension per 1° degree of bend. Multiplying that times 90° will give us the bend allowance for a 90° bend. (Figure: 1) Although the process of calculating bend allowance is relatively simple, it's made even easier by the use of a bend allowance table. A bend allowance table has a matrix of the most common sheet-metal sizes and the standard bending radii already calculated for both a 1° bend as well as the most common, 90° bend. A bend allowance table can be found in Advisory Circular 43.13-1B. When we prepare a piece of metal for bending, we are doing what we call a flat layout. All sheet metal components are simply a series of flat sections and bends. Prior to bending up a sheet-metal part we get out a piece of scratch paper and simply formulate a layout similar to what we see in (Figure: 3).
We will lay out each flat section with the bend allowance required for each of the bends. In this case, because the bends are all 90°, the material thickness is the same, and the radius for each of the bends are also the same, we only need to calculate or look up bend allowance once. The amount of material (bend allowance) used for each of the bends is identical. Next we simply need to calculate the length of each one of the flat sections. The normal formula for calculating the flat section is given dimension, minus setback. "Setback" by definition is the radius plus the thickness used during the bend. If all given dimensions were given from the outside of the material to the end of the flat section this formula would work great. However there are many cases where you're going to have to extrapolate on this formula in order to calculate the flat section length. For example, in order to calculate the length of FLAT A, the given dimension is from the inside of the bend. In this case FLAT A = (given dimension .375) - (bend radius .125) = .25. In order to keep comprehension to a higher level, we normally start by teaching bend allowance as we have shown here, with all bends being conducted at 90°. Once we have mastered the process calculating for 90° bends, we can now venture into the calculations necessary for bends that are more acute or obtuse. (Figure: 4)
We still use setback which is radius + thickness however this time we multiply a K factor. A K factor chart is available in Advisory Circular 43.13-1B (Figure: 5). This is simply another complex mathematical calculation distilled into a matrix which correlates to the correction factor to the angle of the bend. To calculate the length of each flat, use the same procedures as we used in calculating for a 90° bend. Simply take the given dimension and subtract the setback. When calculating the bend allowance for the bends that are other than 90° simply multiply the bend allowance for 1° times the number of degrees that the metal is bent. This is the same number of degrees used when calculating setback utilizing K factor.
You may have become very proficient at bending aluminum using the old standby method where you start with an extra-large sheet, bend it to the appropriate angle, then cut off the excess material to come up with your final dimension. There's nothing particularly wrong with utilizing this method, however if you have more than one bend you're going to be in big trouble. This is where I see individuals getting fairly creative- by guessing at the dimensions, bending the metal, and re-measuring to see how far off they are. Then changing their original dimensions by the amount of error in the original part and re-bending a new piece. After about three or four tries, they can typically get pretty close. But as you might imagine, this can be quite time-consuming, expensive, and frustrating. If you find yourself working on aluminum aircraft on a regular basis, the amount of effort required to learn to do sheet-metal layout is really quite minimal. Once you've practiced a bit, you can develop confidence and accuracy worthy of a professional. It's very rewarding to go through the process of laying out a fairly complex part with multiple bends and have it fit into the aircraft on the first shot. In part 2 of this article, we will address some of the more practical aspects of bending aluminum such as how to place the metal into and set up the sheet-metal "brake". Establishing a site line. And some other tips and tricks that will get you on your way to becoming a sheet-metal whiz.

For the past year, USD Law has actively searched for a dynamic, well-rounded individual to replace beloved Dean Kevin Cole beginning summer 2011. In January, three finalists came to campus for a two-day marathon of meet-and-greets and informational sessions for faculty and students. At the end of the visits, the USD Faculty voted its recommendation for Dean and submitted it to the USD Provost. One of the finalists withdrew his name from consideration due to familial reasons.1
After nearly three months of anticipation, on April 14, the law school e-mailed a status update on the Dean search. The school announced that the Dean Search Committee ("the Committee") had expanded the group of Dean Finalists to include three more individuals. The Committee noted in its announcement that it was "extraordinarily impressed with the overall quality of the candidate pool" and that it "felt strongly that there were some outstanding candidates remaining." The Committee communicated with USD Executive Vice President and Provost Julie Sullivan its recommendations to expand the pool and happily extended invitations to the candidates to visit the campus. The finalists accepted.
The expanded pool now includes an even more diverse group of individuals with distinguishing characteristics and experiences that would positively benefit USD Law. The three new finalists are Goodwin Procter Partner Stephen Ferruolo, Professor Russell Osgood of Grinnell College, and Associate Dean Michael Waterstone of Loyola Law School.
A former Rhodes Scholar, Mr. Ferruolo is the Founding Partner and Chair of the Goodwin Procter, LLP San Diego Office. Prior to law school, Mr. Ferruolo was a professor at Stanford University for nearly eight years. After attending Stanford Law School, Mr. Ferruolo was a judicial law clerk and associate at O'Melveny and Myers in Los Angeles. Soon after, Mr. Ferruolo received a position with Heller Ehrman, LLP in its Palo Alto and San Diego offices. After a mere four years of work with Heller Ehrman, he became a partner—the earliest promotion in firm history. He co-chaired both the Life Sciences and Corporate departments. While at Heller Ehrman, Mr. Ferruolo also worked as an adjuct professor at Stanford Law School. In 2007, Mr. Ferruolo became a partner at Goodwin Procter.
A current La Jolla resident, Mr. Ferruolo is the one candidate with near equal balance in teaching and professional experience. He feels that being the next law school dean would enable him to experience the best of both worlds and would be the perfect opportunity for himself and his family because it is in San Diego. Most importantly, Mr. Ferruolo feels that he can make a positive impact for the USD legal community. From his experience working as a partner at a large multinational law firm, he knows that USD Law graduates are among the best lawyers, even better than graduates of many Ivy League schools. He is also well-acquainted with several members of the faculty and knows them to be among the finest in the nation. He would like to build the reputation of the University of San Diego School of law and really help structure the school to focus not only on the strengths of USD's program but also the San Diego legal community. Mr. Ferruolo notes that San Diego is not known for big corporations. The wealth of San Diego is not from the area, and it's not stored here in the realm of banking. What San Diego has is human talent (e.g., Biotech). He says it is time to focus on servicing these markets and building up our in-house counsel opportunities and training.
When asked about how he plans to assist in the development process of recruiting top-notch, diverse students, Mr. Ferruolo notes: China. Mr. Ferruolo believes that to enhance the school's ability to secure post-graduation positions is to expand the student base into broader markets, which will enhance the school's name brand. If there are strong employees at law firms across the nation, this will enhance the likelihood that USD Law will be at least considered for positions. He also notes that the largest growing legal market is China and that Chinese students come to the U.S. for law school and return to their home country for positions. He would like to expand our reputation into that legal market and encourage students to consider taking positions overseas. The first step in expanding our reputation is to encourage Chinese students to come to USD and return home and spread the name of USD Law.
Mr. Ferruolo is a practical, "hands-on guy" who understands that the best way to motivate the alumni base to support the school is to build relationships with current students. Students need to develop an affinity and relationship with the school, and we need to learn how to communicate with alumni in a way that resonates with them and build connections while students are still on campus.
An active outdoorsman who enjoys running, swimming and golfing, Mr. Ferruolo believes in balance and discipline. If selected as USD Law Dean, he would like to implement a culture that develops upon these ideals. Mr. Ferruolo humbly notes that he is a phenomenal cook who focuses on Italian dishes. And in the Women's Law Caucus auction, he would donate one of two things: 1) golfing, or 2) a home-cooked Italian meal with his family.
Note: At the time of publication, Professor Osgood had not yet visited campus. This synopsis is based on cursory research and a basic questionnaire sent to all three candidates.
A former member of the U.S. Navy, member of the elite Phi Beta Kappa, and former Articles Editor for the Yale Law Review, Professor Russell Osgood is a current professor of history and political science at Grinnell College in Iowa. For twelve years, he was also the president of the college and led a campus-planning process resulting in the construction and planning of new facilities. He also undertook a process of major programmatic and curricular advances and launched several galleries and centers and a diversity hiring initiative.2
Prior to his work at Grinnell College, Professor Osgood worked in the Tax and Corporate Department of Hill & Barlow in Boston, specializing in employee benefits. Before that, he worked at Boston University School of Law as an Associate Professor and then for eight years at Cornell University School of Law. He was the Editor of the Law and History Review and later the Allen R. Tessler Dean for the law school. During his tenure at Cornell Law, he focused his scholarly work in areas of American Legal History, employee benefits and pension law, and income tax.3 He also helped to introduce a new writing program for the first-year curriculum and enhanced the school's international curriculum and increased the diversity of its students and faculty. 4 Professor Osgood also worked to increase the "school's resources to keep pace with technological advancement" and enhanced the law school's "Legal information Institute."5 This Institute is known as one of the top providers of legal information on the web.
Professor Osgood feels that being the Dean of USD Law would be "a great opportunity to meaningfully advance the law school in national reputation and in contributing to [the] legal system." He feels that the goal to expand the school's reputation will involve many decisions that may not be easy or popular but necessary. He would like to work with a community of students, faculty, alumni, and University that is committed to the advancement of the school and willing to make those hard decisions. Before Professor Osgood finds the best ways to move the law school forward, he would like to first find his way around the campus community and develop a stronger sense of the opportunities and challenges of the school and the interaction between students, faculty, and the legal community. As Dean, he has three key interests: 1) Increasing the academic reputation of the school, 2) working to reduce student loan indebtedness on graduation, and 3) building excellence at every step in the Law School.
When asked about the bar passage rate, Professor Osgood noted that during his work on law school accreditation, he has observed a number of schools with lower bar passage rates. He would like to work with the law school to continue in its development of a multi-faceted plan and program for success. He knows that California has a historically lower bar passage rate, but he believes USD Law's rates must be improved.
Professor Osgood met his wife in junior high school and notes that he enjoys swimming and running every day. However, the school would be unwise to put him on a softball team. He has three Cairn Terriers and four accomplished grown children and enjoys all kinds of broiled fish. He enjoys watching college swimming, basketball, and football.
Note: At the time of publication, Mr. Waterstone had not yet visited campus. This synopsis is based on cursory research and a basic questionnaire sent to all three candidates.
Michael Waterstone is the current Associate Dean of Research and Academic Centers at Loyola Law School. He is a 1995 summa cum laude graduate of UCLA, a member of the prestigious Phi Beta Kappa, and a former Technical Editor of the Journal of Legislation and magna cum laude graduate of Harvard Law School. Prior to working at Loyola Law School, Dean Waterstone clerked for the Honorable Richard S. Arnold in the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals. He later became an associate at Munger, Tolles, & Olson in Los Angeles and then taught at the University of Mississippi School of Law.
Dean Waterstone is a "nationally recognized expert in disability and civil rights law." He has been published in several prestigious law reviews.6 He has been a consultant for several programs and has addressed Congress and worked on many policy initiatives. He has also lectured at conferences throughout the world.
As native Southern Californians, Dean Waterstone and his wife would love to remain close to home and raise their children near family. Also, Dean Waterstone notes that being the Dean of USD Law would be an "extraordinary opportunity to be a part of a school that has already had phenomenal success." He enjoys being a part of a program that is "larger than himself, and working to empower colleagues and students to succeed." When questioned about his vision for USD Law, Dean Waterstone notes that he would like to visit the campus and meet more individuals before articulating a vision. However, he has several priorities: developing the resources for USD Law to move forward; helping students get jobs and succeed in this more competitive environment we find ourselves in, and strategically growing USD's already stellar faculty.
Dean Waterstone is a life-long Angels fan who enjoys traveling. Dean Waterstone recollects one of his happiest memories as being with his father at Game 7 of the World Series when the Angels beat the Giants in 2002. As a traveler, after graduating from UCLA, he backpacked around Europe and after law school spent some time in Costa Rica studying Spanish and surfing. As Dean he would be excited to continue current USD traditions. In a Women's Law Caucus auction, he and his wife would donate dinners or tailgates at sporting events.

The Chicago Terminal Chapter of the PRRT&HS will hold its first meeting of the new year on Saturday, January 24 between 2:00 PM and 5:00 PM at the Pullman Visitor's Center, 11141 S. Cottage Grove Avenue, Chicago Illinois.
George Pierson will present "The PRR Middle Division in Juniata County, PA, 1847-2012." This program will take an in-depth look at this 30-mile stretch of the famous PRR Middle Division in central Pennsylvania. The presentation will cover how the PRR developed from its earliest days into the famous four-track Broad Way of Commerce. Every significant structure in this 30-mile stretch will be covered. Port Royal, Mifflin, and the coal wharf at Denholm will receive special attention, including a number of rare photos, many of which have not been seen before. Over this stretch, the PRR once connected with three different narrow gauge pikes. A fuller version of this material is being prepared for an upcoming issue of the Pennsylvania Railroad Technical & Historical Society's KEYSTONE magazine.
While desirable, membership in the PRRT&HS is not required for attendance at our local meetings. Moreover, while donations are always welcome, there is no admission charge, nor any "arm-twisting" for a donation. Typical attendees consist of a mixture of ex-railroaders, model railroaders, and those interested in the operation and history of the Pennsylvania Railroad.
Anyone interested in learning about the Pennsylvania Railroad is invited to attend.
Marvin Cadwell
President, Chicago Terminal Chapter,

Exercise URL:
Error message:
Is it possible to make my all page in same font-family, font-size without writing again and again in every tags?
for example under <body> make something <??? style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 20px; color: blue">
and close it before </body>, or something like that?
You can put this in your css:
* {
//Any css in here will be applied to the entire page
Do what sgt.schultz said. However you will need to either have your code in a CSS file, or otherwise put it between <style></style> tags.
EDITED:You generally shouldn't be putting the styling in the HTML tag, it gets very messy and hard to maintain. The best way is to have a seperate CSS file, which can apply styling to every page of a website, as long as you link to it. Alternatively you can put your code between <style></style> tags, as I mentioned before, but it will only apply to that page.
Thanks Schultz and Andreobriennz! I haven't learned the CSS yet, but knowing that could answer my question also helps a lot.
you can add the following to your html code:
body {
font-family: Garamond;
i wouldn't use unversial selector here.
Thanks Andreobriennz and Stetim! The code works, and I also tried font-size and color.
It seems to me that if the normal<style= " ">tag applied in the following lines, the system will give the normal one priority, which makes the <style></style> useless.That totally makes sense to me why Andreobriennz you said that that will make things hard to maintain.
<style= " ">
is highly uncommon, you mean style attribute:
<p style="">
? Well yes, css needs a way to resolve conflicting properties, so there is a point system. The property with the most points get applied.
from the top of my head:style attribute: 1000pointsid selector: 100 pointsclass selector: 10 pointselement selector: 1 point
you should check documentation if you really want to understand this point system
using <style></style> means you have an internal stylesheet, usually you have an external stylesheet (css code in separate file), its quit uncommon to use style attribute or internal stylesheet.
the external stylesheet, will make things more maintainable.

Maybe Facebook (FB) is onto something after all with its notion that people want their smartphones to be centered more around its social network. Flurry Analytics released a new report on Wednesday showing that iOS and Android users spend roughly half their time either playing mobile games, which accounted for 32% of all time spent on both platforms, or using Facebook's mobile app, which accounted for 18% of all time spent. The report, which used both Flurry's own data as well as data from comScore and NetMarketShare, found that mobile users spend 80% of their time using some kind of mobile app on their devices and spend just 20% of their time using some kind of mobile browser.

The local government election has generated much discussion about the future of the Redlands.
Across the City some community groups have collaborated to seek the views of all candidates on issues critical to the community and public interest. These organisations are:
- Stradbroke Island Management Organisation Inc. (SIMO),
- Koala Action Group Qld Inc. (KAG),
- Community Alliance for Responsible Planning- Redlands Inc. (CARP),
- Birkdale Progress Association Inc. (BPA)
- Redlands2030
These groups will use the results to inform their members about making informed decisions when voting for a mayor and divisional councillor. Questions on issues of community concern are being presented to all candidates with the aim at clarifying their positions.
All candidates have been sent the same five questions (by email).
The questions are published below. They may require some thought and maybe a little research about the "public interest", but this is no more than we would expect any elected councillor to be able to do.
Candidates have been asked to respond by 5pm Sunday 5 March 2016, sent to firstname.lastname@example.com .
The community will be advised of candidates' responses through web based posts and the social media of participating community organisations.
In addition to the questions, back ground material is provided in this article so candidates and the community are fully aware of the context and history of the issues. This may involve a bit of time and effort but nothing compared to the timelines given and time required for the elected councillors to respond to some matters that come before Council meetings.
During the last term of office, Redland City Council asked the Queensland State Government to create a Priority Development Area (PDA) over land comprising Toondah Harbour and the adjacent GJ Walter Park (17.9 hectares) as well as 50.5 hectares of the Moreton Bay Marine Park – total of 68.4 hectares. This was done. The subsequent Toondah Harbour Priority Development Area Proposed Development Scheme represented a massive overdevelopment of the site including reclamation of Moreton Bay for residential towers. The proposed site includes part of the Marine Park and internationally recognised RAMSAR locations. Since the Walker Group was awarded development rights on the site, the proposed development has grown exponentially.
The proposed development ignores the community's wishes as embodied in the Redlands 2030 Community Plan and as documented in the Toondah Harbour Community Engagement Report 2013. The people of the Redlands indicated support for renewal of the Toondah Harbour facility; they did not give the thumbs up to the massive overdevelopment of the Harbour, adjacent land and Moreton Bay itself.
The amenities at Toondah Harbour for travellers to Minjerribah/North Stradbroke Island need improvement. The proposed development creates a township on the bay rather than just improving the port. This will conflict with the needs of Island residents and visitors particularly in making parking more difficult and more expensive. The commercial activities at the Toondah Harbour development will likely draw business way from the Island.
Accordingly, the community has been actively campaigning to influence the State Government to withdraw the 'Toondah Harbour Priority Development Area (PDA) Proposed Development Scheme' as released January 2014 and start again, ensuring that the process of drafting a new Proposed Development Scheme:
- honours the Redlands 2030 Community Plan (April 2010)
- honours the findings of the Toondah Harbour Community Engagement Report (August 2013) , and–
- is done in close and continuing consultation with the people of the Redlands.
If you are elected to Redland City Council will you lobby in favour of and vote for a resolution of Council to ask the Queensland State Government to withdraw the 'Toondah Harbour Priority Development Area (PDA) Proposed Development Scheme' as released January 2014 and start again?
Please answer only YES or NO.
During the last term of office, Redland City Council developed a Draft Redland Planning Scheme (Draft Redland City Plan 2015). The community was omitted from the development stages of the Draft Planning Scheme and was only consulted once the Draft Plan had been fully formulated and signed off for release by the Queensland State Government.
Concurrently, the Redland City Council had invited representatives of the development industry to form an internal advisory group entitled the Development Industry Reference Group (DIRG) a clandestine group operating under 'Chatham House rules' ie – what is discussed in the room stays in the room. Ultimately, the community became aware of its existence and reluctantly Council released the DIRG meeting minutes. These revealed Council's briefings of the Development Industry on the preparation of the Draft Planning Scheme and an ongoing dialogue of over a year between Council and the Industry. On a "confidential basis" the DIRG was provided with copies of Council's draft 'Land Supply Study' and was invited to review and comment before completion of that Study. As perhaps the most commercially sensitive documents associated with the preparation of a new Planning Scheme, customarily such documents remain confidential within Council until adopted by the elected Council.
The Draft Redland City Plan 2015 promotes excessive development and significant relaxation of environmental protection measures including but not limited to:
- Rezoning and sale of Council-owned parks, bushland & open space throughout the Redlands which will reduce our greenspace amenity, destroy koala habitat and intensify development in already-developed urban areas.
- Further densification through subdivision ('infill') of the heavily developed urban areas of the Redlands when there is enough land already designated to accommodate population growth. . Within the residential zones significant decreases in minimum lot sizes and increases in site coverages together with the deletion of certain maximum density controls are proposed.
- Removal of all habitat/ tree protection on lots under 2000m2 as this comprises most of the Redlands' leafy urban areas – where our urban koalas live.
- Further expansion of small lot housing developments as planned in the area between Bunker Road and Double Jump Road, Victoria Point.
- Removal of habitat/ tree protection on properties in the Rural Zone, enabling the clearing of 2500m2 of bush per property without Council control or approval.
- Designation of huge tracts of rural land in Thornlands (area bounded by Taylor Road, Woodlands Drive & Springacre Road) AND in Southern Redland Bay as future urban growth investigation areas – ie, more urban expansion.
- Changes to the Rural Zone which allow extra dwellings, new uses and associated clearing without Council control and approval (including the creeklines and significant, old growth habitat) and which, if abused, could lead to systematic degradation of Redlands' rural lands as a precursor to even more urbanisation.
- Removal of the Conservation Zone and the Environmental Protection Zone from private properties, leaving most of Redlands' highly important and sensitive environmental areas unprotected and subject to clearing.
- The proposed planning scheme does not include the Development Control Plan for Point Lookout with severe consequences for the visual amenity and character; the DCP for Point Lookout should be included in full as a 'Local Plan' within the planning scheme and local development control plans should be prepared for Amity and Dunwich.
- No protection is provided to Aboriginal cultural heritage and the protection of non-Aboriginal heritage places is inferior to that in the current Planning Scheme.
When the formal community consultation closed 27 November 2015, there were 6407 submissions received, the great majority of which did not support one or more aspects of the Draft Plan.
If you are elected to Redland City Council will you lobby in favour of and vote for a resolution of Council to withdraw the proposed Draft Redland Planning Scheme (Draft Redland City Plan 2015) and begin the plan-making process again, this time with full and proper community consultation?
Please answer only YES or NO.
During the last term of office, Redland City Council released its draft Planning Scheme, the Draft Redland City Plan (City Plan 2015).
The Draft Redland City Plan 2015 makes some major changes that reduce protection of heritage places:
- the protection given to heritage places in the proposed Planning Scheme is very inferior to that in the current planning scheme:
- the main objective, in regard to heritage, of the current planning scheme is conservation and protection
- this changes under the proposed scheme to an objective 'to better manage the impact of future development'
- the proposed Draft Redland City Plan 2015 calls for the community and developers to 'acknowledge and respect' Aboriginal cultural heritage but provides no measures to ensure this occurs
- the proposed Draft Redland City Plan 2015 does not have an adequate definition of 'heritage' or 'heritage place' and this will make it difficult to secure protection and conservation; and –
- Redland City Council is lagging behind other local governments in identifying and documenting heritage places, providing assistance in their conservation and in allocating specialist resources.
As an example, what happened with Willards Farm shows the inadequacy of heritage protection by Redland City Council, even before the proposed changes in the Draft Redland City Plan 2015:
- the Queensland Heritage Council recommended that Willards Farm should be placed on the Redland City local heritage list
- however, the Redland City Council local heritage list does not include places recommended for protection as long ago as 1999
- Redland City Council has a policy not to list 'private properties' on the heritage list
- other Councils including Ipswich, Scenic Rim, Noosa, and Sunshine Coast have much more developed processes.
If you are elected to Redland City Council will you lobby in favour of and vote for a resolution of Council to establish a comprehensive Heritage Protection Scheme that:
- applies irrespective of the type of ownership or tenure to Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal heritage
- allows the public to nominate places for heritage listing?
Please answer only YES or NO.
It is clear that the current Council has done very little to stem the rapid decline of koalas in the Redlands. The most pressing threats to koalas are:
- habitat loss (including disease which is directly attributable to habitat loss)
- road mortality
- attacks by domestic dogs. *
The Draft Redland City Planning Scheme (City Plan 2015) further entrenches the planning processes that are leading to most of the loss of koala habitat. For example, there is no protection of trees in the urban footprint on private properties less than 2000m2. This means that the all-important links between larger areas of habitat will be lost. Council's own studies and strategies all emphasise the importance of these links. The Urban Habitat Koala Tree Study and the Koala Management Plan have been largely ignored.
The currently proposed 'Toondah Harbour Priority Development Area (PDA) Proposed Development Scheme' will wipe out one of the best koala populations in the Redlands. The foreshore is an important movement corridor for koalas as it connects to the creek estuaries.
* Note: It is recognised that the recent proposed changes to regulations in identified koala areas currently out for public comment will help protect koalas in those areas.
If you are elected to Redland City Council will you:
(a) Lobby in favour of and vote for a Redland City Council koala recovery program that includes a moratorium on koala tree removal and strengthening of habitat protection laws?
Please answer only YES or No.
(b) Lobby in favour of and vote for a resolution of Council to ask the Queensland State Government to withdraw the 'Toondah Harbour Priority Development Area (PDA) Proposed Development Scheme' as released January 2014 and start again, ensuring that the process is done in close and continuing consultation with the people of the Redlands?
Please answer only YES or No.
(c) Lobby in favour of and vote for a resolution of Council to withdraw the proposed Draft Redland Planning Scheme (Draft Redland City Plan 2015) and beginning the plan-making process again, this time with full and proper community consultation?
Please answer only YES or No.
In November 2015, Redland City Council granted a Preliminary Approval for a Material Change of Use to vary the effect of a local planning instrument for a masterplanned urban community comprising town centre, town centre frame, residential and open space precincts at Southern Redland Bay, subject to conditions (that is, the proposed Shoreline Development – Council reference MCU01328 – comprising 4000 homes for some 10,000 people).
The Preliminary Approval and related conditions are detailed in Council's Decision Notice dated 25 November 2015.
Many of the conditions of the Preliminary Approval require the Applicant to lodge submissions to Council on a wide range of matters which require Council's approval prior to the lodgement of further development applications, which in turn will require Council's subsequent approval in order to implement the development. For your reference the Conditions of Consent are linked.
The conditions which require Applicant submissions and Council approval as a pre-requisite to the lodgement of development applications are numbers 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 22 and 23 – covering a range of matters including but not limited to updating the Plan of Development, Precinct and Master Plans, Open Space Landscape Strategy and Biting Insect Management Plan and some roadworks, cycleway, open space as well as environmental matters relating to migratory birds
Future development applications for the Shoreline proposal will, in themselves, be of a scale, complexity and public interest greater than almost all other applications assessed and decided by the Redland City Council.
The prescribed period of the current approval is fifteen (15) years and it would be reasonable to anticipate that the Applicant will seek many changes to that approval over time.
Currently most Council decisions on development matters are made by the Officers acting under delegated authority rather than by Council itself. Relatively few decisions, classified by either the Officers or Councillors as Category 4 – Major and Significant Assessments are determined by Council (after the Officer assessment reports are placed on the public record and debated by Councillors in open Council meetings).
Given the level of community concern about the Shoreline development and the scale of the development, the community is entitled to have assurances that our elected members will be directly responsible for decisions and will closely monitor the implementation of and compliance with these decisions; further, that decision-making and compliance with the decisions are dealt with openly and by vote of the Council rather than by delegation to officers.
Redland City Council wrote to Shoreline and detailed the conditions of consent.
If you are elected to Redland City Council will you lobby in favour of and vote for a resolution of Council that will:
a. categorise all matters relating to the Shoreline proposal as Category 4 – Major and Significant Assessments. and
b. direct all matters requiring Council approval to implement the Shoreline proposal (other than Operational Works and Building applications) to be openly determined by Council and not by Officers acting under delegated authority?
Please answer only YES or NO
Responses to these questions will be collated and each participating community organisation will consider the results and what the results mean for that organisations members.
The participating candidates will be acknowledged. Note a no response or incomplete response to any or all questions will be reported but in the interests of clarity and transparency all candidates are asked to answer either YES or NO.
A report card will be compiled from the responses and the results distributed to the participating community organisations and the candidates themselves.
Redlands2030 appreciates the time and commitment of the candidates who make this information available to the participating community organisations.
Each participating organisation will consider its own response to the outcomes of the questions.

The medical examiner who performed the autopsy of Dwayne Grandson, confirmed to the jury Wednesday that Grandson died of gunshot wounds.
During his testimony, Assistant Medical Examiner Dr. Zabuli Ali told the jury he was able to determine Grandson was shot in the torso.
Ali found three entrance and exit wounds of gunshots in Grandson's body. He appeared to be shot in his neck, thighs, chest and right side.
In a diagram presented by the government, Ali showed the jury where Grandson's gunshot wounds were discovered. He also told them there were "scratches" on Grandson's body the images on the left side of the diagram, indicate where bullets "occurred." The ones on the right side of the diagram, are where bullets entered the "back of the chest."'
Clifton Johnson was arrested in connection with Grandson's murder and charged with second-degree murder while armed. He is being held without bond and his trial resumes next Wednesday.

text: Vladimir Miklashevsky, Economis/Strategist at Danske Bank, has assessed the prospects for the Russian currency. Key Quotes "As we expected, the RUB continues to be the best play among oil producers on a rising oil price". "Yet Russia's currency has moved closer to its equilibrium levels as its strengthening has been subdued. Thus, the current levels in RUB are much more comfortable for the state budget than they were in the autumn 2015". "We continue to be bullish on the RUB in the long run as the free float is protecting Russia's current account surplus and economy despite probably another year of a slump". "The rising oil price prospects, an upward oil futures curve and marginal FX redemptions by the corporate sector, combined with low FX demand by individuals, are also RUB supportive".

Winter Gardening Time is here. Hurray!
By Gini Bramlett
For the Calapooia Food Alliance
Garden catalogues have been making their way into our mailboxes by the wheelbarrow load the past few weeks. The colorful pictures and the creative descriptions of new and exciting varieties, as well as the old standbys get the old gardening juices flowing, and the desire to start digging in the dirt makes it difficult to wait until spring.
That being said, there's no need to wait. It's not too early to be planting cool weather veggies provided your soil is in good condition. With the milder Northwest climate and limited below-freezing temperatures, crops like beets, lettuce, Pak Choy, peas, and even spinach can be planted now.
Beets can be planted when your garden soil has warmed to 40 degrees. When seedlings are four inches tall thin to 4-6 inches apart by cutting off the tops at soil level. Never pull seedlings, as this could uproot plants nearby that you want to keep.
Some of the heirloom varieties mature in as little as 45 days making them easy to grow this time of year.
If you didn't take the time to nourish your soil last fall, no worries. Beets have low nutrient requirements and unless your soil is seriously depleted, will do pretty well without added fertilizer.
Cold weather is spinach's best friend. Seeds will germinate in temperatures as low as 40 degrees, and seedlings can handle temperatures even lower to 15 degrees. That doesn't mean it wouldn't be a good idea to use row covers as a precaution when freezing temperatures threaten. If you don't have row cover, throw a piece of clear plastic over the bed. Just don't forget to remove it in the morning.
Harvest outer leaves when spinach is small or wait until they get larger. Just remember, most spinach will bolt when temperatures warm. Try Razzle Dazzle, a variety that reaches harvest size in a month.
Loose Leaf Lettuce
Lettuce likes cool weather, too. Forty degrees is the magic number to plant leaf lettuce seeds. Plant in rows or broadcast and cover with light mulch until germination.
Thin when plants develop two or three true leaves.
For crispier lettuce, harvest during the coolest time of the day when leaves are about two inches long. Lettuce, which has very shallow roots, cannot tolerate dry spells, so light watering may be necessary during drier spells.
Pak Choy
This crop requires temperatures a bit warmer, so wait until night temperatures are about 50 degrees before you plant. Thin seedlings to 6 inches apart for dwarf varieties and 12 inches apart for taller varieties.
Thinned seedling can be tossed into salads. Plants need to stay watered or they will bolt when temperatures rise. Some varieties can be harvested in as little as 50 days.
Peas are so good and so easy to grow. They love cool temperatures, so this can be the perfect time to get them started. Whether you grow snap, shell or snow peas, they can be started outdoors at 40 degrees. If they suffer a touch of frost, they bounce back by producing more fruit.
Rains this time of year should provide adequate moisture, but the soil should not get waterlogged. Consequently, I like growing peas in raised beds. Pole varieties need to be trellised.
Don't overlook using row covers on your winter/spring garden when frost or lower temperature threatens. They are inexpensive and easy to use. Row covers can be the difference between an abundant crop of fresh home grown vegetables and the disappointment of investing all the time, money and labor for nothing.

Oregon state legislators are considering House Bill 3451 to establish at OSU an Oceangoing Research Vessel Program. This bill fits into a larger multiyear effort to grow the marine science economic sector for Oregon. It began over four decades ago with the establishment of the Hatfield Marine Science Center, initiated with investments from the state of Oregon and Oregon State University. In 2008, a group of regional leaders, led by then HMSC director George Boehlert, set the goal to establish Newport, Oregon as a hub for ocean observing in the Pacific Northwest. Since then the results have been remarkable. With state help, Newport and the central Oregon coast have obtained the following federally funded programs:
- NOAA Marine Operations Center – Pacific – a 20 year port lease with $19M annual impact to our region in jobs, products, and services
- National Science Foundation Ocean Observatories Initiative Endurance Array – multimillion dollar, five year build out with 25 year operation and maintenance
- Pacific Marine Energy Center – multimillion dollar, 20 year program
Today, marine science research is a significant economic force in Oregon. In the greater Newport region alone, it accounts for $60M in annual revenues, third in revenues behind fishing and tourism.
The next stop for our region is replacing OSU's research vessel Oceanus, forty years old, which annually contributes $3.6M to our local economy. OSU has been given a remarkable opportunity under a $3M contract with the NSF to design the next class of regional research vessels. But designing a ship does not guarantee OSU will receive a new vessel. The federal government is always looking for ways to cut costs, and states that support their marine research will be favored over states that do not.
This program is important for Oregon. It builds on the momentum underway, and will ensure continued premier ocean research at OSU for the next thirty plus years.
And what is the effect of not funding this? Possible loss of a replacement vessel for the R/V Oceanus. And a diminishing leadership role OSU is playing in oceanographic research.
The amount request is modest, and the return to Oregon is huge. Oregon legislators should pass HB 3541, and help to secure Oregon's future in marine science research.

Two years ago, Hurricane Sandy swept through New York and New Jersey on its damaging path from the Caribbean up the Atlantic Coast, leaving at least 182 people dead and wreaking $65 billion in damage in the U.S., according to the Associated Press.
Environmental writer Kathryn Miles has documented the events leading up to hurricane's destructive path in her new book "Superstorm: Nine Days Inside Hurricane Sandy." As devastating as the natural disaster was, it may have been much worse had it not been for the crucial meteorological information gathered by an elite group of Air Force reservists known as the Hurricane Hunters. A mix of military fighter pilots and meteorologists, they fly into the center of the storm in high-tech WC-130J airplanes and relay wind information back to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
Miles, who was recently in New Jersey promoting her book, spoke with Not Impossible Now about these brave airmen and the important work they do to forecast the track of hurricanes. She also spoke about how financial cutbacks will affect that and other important hurricane detection efforts.
NIN: What did you discover about the Hurricane Hunters in your research?
Kathryn: These guys are the real superheroes of meteorology. Hurricane Hunters have a long history that goes back decades. They became a bona fide part of the military not long after World War II, and have consistently provided the information that NOAA needs. A team of five (two pilots, a navigator and a meteorologist) will go out when the National Hurricane Center (NHC) calls them. The reason for that is because the technology that the NHC uses is really quite limited in terms of its ability to detect wind. When a system starts to form, usually in the Caribbean, they can tell that it's starting to circulate but they can't tell how strong the winds are. They can't make the distinction between a 200 mph wind and a 50 mph wind. For the NHC to know if it's a hurricane, let alone what level of a hurricane it is, they literally have to send human beings into the storm.
The Hurricane Hunters go on a hunting mission to figure out the four winds. To prove that it's a closed system that's fully circulating, they need to go in and find winds that are blowing in all four cardinal directions. To do that, they use two major pieces of technology. The first is called a Stepped-Frequency Microwave Radiometer (smurf, for short), and it sits on the wing of the plane. It's a very sophisticated tool that records these winds as the plane flies through. They need to be where the strongest winds are, which makes it an incredibly risky job.
The second piece of technology that they use is called dropsonde. It's a cardboard tube that looks like a toilet paper roll. They have what's called a loadmaster whose job is to drop this tube out of the airplane, and as it falls from the sky it reads barometric pressure, wind speed, temperature and moisture. It records the data and sends it back to NHC. The head of the NHC told me that since they started using these devices, their forecasts have improved more than 30 percent, which in meteorological language is enormous.
How far back had they used them?
Kathryn: They've been using them for quite some time and they've been improving them in the last decade. The head of the group, a man named John Talbot, designed the smurf (which was first used in 2007). Before that, they were using more primitive devices.
Has the technology improved since Sandy?
Kathryn: This is where the funding crisis and what I call the infrastructure crisis that is our meteorological system comes into play. The Hurricane Hunters for years were their own branch of the Air Force. The U.S. government folded the agency altogether about 15 years ago. Right away, NOAA was like, "Wait! We cannot do our job without these guys." So Congress agreed to bring them back, but they brought them back as a reserve unit (based at Keesler Air Force Base in Mississippi. There also is NOAA unit based in Tampa, Fla.). These guys are doing lots of other jobs, though. What's happening is there is next to no funds for research and development. We've made it such that they can't do the improvements and advancements that they certainly have the capability to do if they only had the time and resources.
Are there estimates of how many lives the Hurricane Hunters have protected?
Kathryn: I've never seen it quantified in terms of lives saved. But that 30 percent improvement rate number is what the NHC and NOAA point to. The forecast error rate grows exponentially. So if on day one I'm 50 miles off of where I think the storm is going to go, by the time its day five, I could be 500 miles off. That's why the accuracy at the start is so very crucial. That's why the Hurricane Hunters are so important. They're the only ones who are able to tell us in real time what's actually happening in the storm. They go in and say, "The winds have reached this level," and that effects everything from our emergency management plans or warning systems and it affects things that you wouldn't expect like insurance disbursements after a storm.
Meteorologically speaking, are we prepared for another Hurricane Sandy?
Kathryn: Our national weather program is in crisis. One of the most pressing problems that we have is a satellite crisis. We use two different types of satellites to forecast the weather. We use geostationary satellites and polar orbiting satellites. Both programs were recently pushed on the GAO watch list.
It's particularly dire for these polar orbiting satellites, which we use for long-term forecasting and the weather models used to predict storms. We have two satellites that are well beyond their life expectancy. One of them was never even intended to be a functioning satellite. It was designed as a test model. It's going to be another two years before the first replacement satellite is going to go up, and there's a good chance it will blow up on launch or die right away. Its replacement satellite won't be ready until 2024. So we could conceivably be in a satellite gap that's anywhere from two years to seven years. Without that long-range data, even the best information that the Hurricane Hunters gather won't really help us as much as we need when it comes to three-day and five-day forecasts.

I mainly use it to batch-download galleries from Vkontakte. It is the only add-on with this functionality, where it actually works. The download of the file-hosters is quite a bit slow, but nevertheless nice...
One issue: Addonbar/Toolbar icon is too large / too high.
