You really need to learn to settle down there crypt. It's bad enough that it takes us forever to read what you are trying to say, but to be overly defensive that people take you as a fool after repeatedly showing that you are is a bit ridiculous.
You're not going to last long here. That's very obvious.

On another street of Verona, Capulet walks with Paris, a noble kinsman of the Prince. The two discuss Paris's desire to marry Capulet's daughter, Juliet. Capulet is overjoyed, but also states that Juliet—not yet fourteen—is too young to get married. He asks Paris to wait two years. He assures Paris that he favors him as a suitor, and invites Paris to the traditional masquerade feast he is holding that very night so that Paris might begin to woo Juliet and win her heart. Capulet dispatches a servant, Peter, to invite a list of people to the feast. As Capulet and Paris walk away, Peter laments that he cannot read and will therefore have difficulty accomplishing his task.
Romeo and Benvolio happen by, still arguing about whether Romeo will be able to forget his love. Peter asks Romeo to read the list to him; Rosaline's name is one of those on the list. Before departing, Peter invites Romeo and Benvolio to the party—assuming, he says, that they are not Montagues. Benvolio tells Romeo that the feast will be the perfect opportunity to compare Rosaline with the other beautiful women of Verona. Romeo agrees to go with him, but only because Rosaline herself will be there.Read a translation of Act 1, scene 2 →
This scene introduces Paris as Capulet's pick for Juliet's husband and also sets into motion Romeo and Juliet's eventual meeting at the feast. In the process, the scene establishes how Juliet is subject to parental influence. Romeo might be forced into fights because of his father's enmity with the Capulets, but Juliet is far more constrained. Regardless of any inter-family strife, Juliet's father can force her to marry whomever he wants. Such is the difference between being a man and woman in Verona. It might seem a worse thing to be caught up in the violence of a brawl, but Juliet's status as a young woman leaves her with no power or choice in any social situation. Like any other female in this culture, she will be passed from the control of one man to another. In this scene, Capulet appears to be a kind-hearted man. He defers to Juliet's ability to choose for herself ("My will to her consent is but a part" [1.2.15]). But his power to force her into a marriage if he feels it necessary is implicitly present. Thus parental influence in this tragedy becomes a tool of fate: Juliet's arranged marriage with Paris, and the traditional feud between Capulets and Montagues, will eventually contribute to the deaths of Romeo and Juliet. The forces that determine their fate are laid in place well before Romeo and Juliet even meet.
The specter of parental influence evident in this scene should itself be understood as an aspect of the force wielded over individuals by social structures such as family, religion, and politics. All of these massive social structures will, in time, throw obstacles in the path of Romeo and Juliet's love.
Peter, who cannot read, offers a touch of humor to this scene, especially in the way his illiteracy leads him to invite two Montagues to the party while expressly stating that no Montagues are invited. But Peter's poor education is also part of the entrenched social structures. Juliet has no power because she is a woman. Peter has no power because he is a lowly servant and therefore cannot read.
Romeo, of course, is still lovelorn for Rosaline; but the audience can tell at this point that Romeo will meet Juliet at the feast, and expectations begin to rise. Through Shakespeare's ingenious manipulation of the plot, the audience starts to feel the rustlings of approaching fate.
In act 2 scene 5 Nurse appears to be tired and sore and tell Romeo the news NOT in act 2 scene 4 as sparknotes have written down.

We are reading Romeo and Juliet in my class and it is so confusing because of the way they talked back then. Sparknotes has been a great help.

This essay (written in my first year at uni) focuses on the balcony scene but should help with thinking about the development of the characters and their relationship. If you're talking about Petrarchan conceit, this should help a lot.
Good luck!! Please follow.

No Whey
I have been trying to eat healthy for long enough that I know I have to read labels, but sometimes I still get caught off guard.
For years I've taken Kyolic garlic. When I started the Blood Type Diet and saw that garlic was neutral, I continued to take it. Then I noticed that the number two ingredient, is whey! I was horrified. I checked the other garlic labels in my health food store. Every single one contained either whey or soy oil. I wound up buying garlic tablets that don't seem to have any avoids at Walmart of all places. But I rarely take it any more unless a virus is going around.
My son used to get migraine headaches. We traced them to MSG, chocolate, and sodium nitrite. After years of reading carefully reading labels, I thought I knew which of the standard products were safe for him. Most lunch meat has sodium nitrite, but Oscar Mayer's oven roasted turkey breast did not. Since other brands without sodium nitrite had corn syrup or other offensive additives, I've been a loyal Oscar Mayer customer for years. For some reason, the week before my son came home from college, I glanced at the turkey breast label and saw "sodium nitrite". I wrote the company to complain. They answered, defending their decision and implying that they now add sodium nitrite to all their meat products.
Two nights ago dinner was almost ready, when I realized I needed another vegetable that I could eat. I keep some canned vegetables in the pantry for such occasions, and I grabbed a can of neutral English peas. The label said they had sugar in them. They had also changed the name from English peas to "sweet peas". When did this happen? At the store yesterday I read pea labels. Every brand had sugar, or worse, corn syrup! I'm going to check the health food store to see if they carry peas without sweetener. Otherwise, I guess it will be frozen or fresh peas from now on.
Will I trust products, even at health food stores, without reading labels anymore? No whey.

Hi brides, we got married at Now Jade in January. The resort is so beautiful and Pilar ensured our wedding day was as perfect as we imagined. I got in touch with the DJ, photographer and videographer about 5 months before our wedding. The DJ requested a list of "must play", "do not play" & the mother/son & bride/groom dance songs from us which we emailed to them before we arrived to the resort. It was nice to communicate with all the different people who would work with us on our day to make sure we are happy.
Here is a link to my full review of Now Jade: http://www.bestdesti...ve/reviews/5858
Happy planning everyone

Fresh fruit and vegetables that have been home grown by adults with learning disabilities are being sold.
The produce has been grown from seed without the use of chemicals or pesticides and can be purchased from the Sleekburn Horticultural Skills Unit, situated on the former Earth Balance site in Bomersund.
Over the coming weeks potatoes, white turnip, cucumbers, courgettes, cabbage, onions, spring onions, tomatoes, garlic, leeks, peas, beans, blackcurrants, raspberries and melons will all be ripe for picking and will be on sale to the public.
There are also fresh eggs available on a daily basis at the facility.
The Northumberland County Council community scheme provides vulnerable adults with an opportunity to learn horticultural skills, meet new people and develop their self-esteem while preparing them for future employment or voluntary work.
Northumberland County councillor Susan Dungworth said: "The project gives people with all levels of learning disabilities the opportunity to plant, grow and harvest crops while doing physical exercise.
"The produce is picked from the field daily, tastes wonderful and really is as fresh as it gets."

Charlotte McKinney has been a busy lady as of late. Whether she's filming for Sports Illustrated, posing for Men's Health, or having Rob Gronkowski spike footballs on her butt, she's almost definitely been all of your news feed lately. She's also arguably the hottest woman on earth right now. Everything about her appears to be so perfect that it's hard to believe she wasn't created in a lab. Or, at the very least, it's hard to believe the she hasn't been augmented with the help of some surgery. Well, she insists it's all real.
The five most common answers Charlotte gives when asked if her enormous boobs are real are as follows:
- "Wow, that is such a good question"
I know it's a good question. That's why I asked it. Sheesh.
- "A unicorn gave them to me"
That would actually explain a lot.
- "I was shopping on SkyMall"
So, you're saying that they ARE fake? Now I'm confused.
- "Justin Bieber thinks they're real"
This doesn't even make sense. Are you telling me that Justin Bieber has felt them? Or are you simply saying his name for the sake of it?
- "They're 'real' off limits, that's what they are."
Yeah, that's more like it.
This is just my opinion, but I think that everyone's favorite blowjob proponent should stick to modelling and not put all her eggs in the comedy basket. That's just my opinion, though. You be the judge: you've seen her try to be funny, now look at her pictures and you tell me.

It was first introduced at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics where it proved hugely popular.
The idea of good-looking men and women playing sport in skimpy outfits on golden beaches was a winning one, with both sponsors and supporters.
Television lapped up the coverage and by the time it was held on Bondi Beach at the Sydney Games, officials restricted the size of swimsuits in order to show as much flesh as possible without the competitors being arrested.
Again, the fun and frolics on the Sydney shoreline proved a massive draw.
Detractors argue that a large part of the sport's skill is in being able to hurl yourself around the sand while all the time keeping your sunglasses on.
Image may be everything, but so is a ticket to one of the fastest growing attractions at the Olympics.
The first official match was played in California in 1943, but the sport did not spurt in size until the 1970s and 80s.
The California Beach Volleyball Association was set up in 1965 and after a sustained period of growth the Association of Volleyball Professionals was set up in 1983, attracting numerous Olympic stars.
The first men's world championship was played in 1987, with the women's event making its debut in 1993.
Finally in 1996 the sport was introduced to the Olympics and was deemed a roaring success.
The USA have won each of the men's tournaments with volleyball legend Karch Kiraly taking his tally of golds to three, his 1996 win coming after victories in 1984 and 1988 in the indoor version.
Brazil, the modern home of the sport, have dominated the women's event, but unlike the USA were unable to win back-to-back golds in Sydney.
Australia's Natalie Cook and Kerri Pottharst were buoyed on by frenzined home support to clinch a thrilling match 12-11, 12-10.

Purees are to the plate what pearls are to women and ties are to men--fashion accents that can lift a menu from the routine.
Cauliflower never has been on my Hit Parade of vegetables, for instance, but I can't get enough of it when it's finely blended and teamed with mashed potatoes in a silken puree. And a clever way of coaxing finicky eaters to swallow Brussels sprouts--or any other commonly dreaded vegetable, for that matter--is deceptively simple:

This week's Talent Talk picks up where we left off last week, looking at what you as an employee should be doing now to manage your own career. To recap, your future earnings are probably your greatest asset unless you are within 10 years of retirement. You should keep your resume current, including information on the successful projects you work on, recognitions you receive, and the like. Also, be honest in evaluating your current situation.
If you have decided that you should keep your eyes open to potential new opportunities, know which companies in your industry you would like to work for. Which companies are financially stable, what is the culture like, which ones are in the growth markets that interest you and line up with your experience? Keep your eyes open for openings with those companies. If the company is using a recruiting firm its Help Wanted advertisement, if there is one, probably will not include the company name so you'll need to look for key phrases as well, such as "a leading compounder of custom resins", or "a growing molder of disposable medical devices"....

MELBOURNE--Rio Tinto PLC RIO, -0.55% said Tuesday it is on track to produce 250 million metric tons of iron ore this year as output from mines in Australia's remote Pilbara region hit a record.
Rio Tinto, the world's second-largest producer of iron ore after Brazil's Vale SA VALE, -0.56% said production from its global mines rose 5% to 67 million tons in the third quarter compared with a year earlier. Production from the Pilbara also rose 5% compared with a year earlier to 63 million tons, a quarterly record.
"Markets remain volatile, but our business is resilient and our operations are performing strongly," Chief Executive Tom Albanese said in a statement.
Rio Tinto is also a major exporter of other raw materials that have helped feed China's rapid industrialization in recent years.
The company said mined copper production rose 21% in the quarter from a year earlier, although it reduced its copper forecast for the year to 560,000 tons from a mid-July estimate of 580,000 tons.
Production of thermal coal--which is used for electricity generation--rose by 21% in the quarter compared with a year earlier. Production of hard coking coal, which is used to produce steel, fell by 13%.
Rio Tinto kept its annual production forecasts for coking coal and thermal coal unchanged at 8.5 million tons and 19.5 million tons, respectively.

ANCHORAGE - It was unlike anything the village of Emmonak had ever experienced: All over town salmon berries, blackberries and blueberries were disappearing from freezers.
"We knew something fishy was happening," said resident Darlene Andrews.
Emmonak takes its berries seriously. Residents of the close-knit Bering Sea community of 767 people at the mouth of the Yukon River have to travel at least 26 miles outside town in June and July to collect them, and it takes two or three days of picking to stockpile enough to make Eskimo ice cream through the winter.
"It's a lot of work," Andrews said.
Who would steal the coveted subsistence food off the front porches and out of the freezers?
For 10 days in September the calls came in - about 15 in all, said Daryl Schierholt, Emmonak's acting village police supervisor. At the height of the berry heists, one resident put an ad on the local TV channel.
"Please watch your freezers and porches," it said, according to village police officer Stephanie Paul.
On Sept. 17, the great berry boosting came to a shocking end: Village police and Alaska State Troopers busted what they claim was a berries-for-pot swap.
Authorities served a search warrant on a two-bedroom house in the center of town after "numerous reports" of drugs being sold there.
Three out-of-towners, a father and two sons, were renting the house, Paul said. The father, Michael Selvester, 48, of Nikiski was cooperative, Paul said. The younger Selvesters - Jason, 24, of Anchorage and Douglas, 18, of Nikiski - were not.
"They were being smart alecks," Paul said. "So the trooper escorted them out and handcuffed them to the Honda for about an hour."
The raid turned up a small amount of marijuana, drug paraphernalia and Hydrocodone, a powerful painkilling drug. Officers also found 29 stolen bags of frozen berries weighing 75 pounds in the freezer.
"It was a lot, believe me," Paul said. "Each Ziploc bag had different writings on them and different dates on them so we seized all of them."
Village police put an ad on television about the found berries and all but two bags have been claimed, Schierholt said. Community members were happy to have their fruit back.
"Berries out in Western Alaska are a very important subsistence food," said Franklin Murphy, who works for the state Division of Juvenile Justice in Emmonak.
Still, parents and elders were disturbed to discover how the berries ended up in the Selvesters' freezer: "A bunch" of teens in the village had traded their parents' and grandparents' berries for pot, Paul said.
"That was shocking to us, to the whole community," said Andrews, who works with elders and youths in Emmonak.
None of the teens has been charged, but some may go before the Emmonak Elders Group and be put to work picking up trash or helping elders, Schierholt said. They also could be required to receive counseling from elders.
What the Selvesters wanted with the berries is not clear, police said. Michael Selvester was charged with third- and sixth-degree misconduct involving a controlled substance. Jason was charged with second- and sixth-degree misconduct involving a controlled substance and violation of condition of release. Douglas was charged with second- and third-degree theft and sixth-degree misconduct involving a controlled substance. All were transported to the Yukon-Kuskokwim Correctional Center in Bethel.
"There is supposed to be no drugs and no alcohol imported to this village, and we are making a stop to this," Murphy said.

She was the first woman ever chosen Best Sommelier in the United States by the Sommelier Society of America, and is also the first appointed Dean of Wine Studies for The French Culinary Institute in New York City, where she graduated with honors from its renowned 600-hour professional culinary program. Andrea was named Outstanding Wine & Spirits Professional by the James Beard Foundation in 2002, and in 2004, was inducted into the Foundation's "Who's Who of Food & Beverage in America." With five books, two television programs and a new DVD series to her credit, Andrea's down-to-earth, energetic approach to wine education has helped demystify the often intimidating subject for hundreds of thousands of consumers and beverage professionals across the globe.

As the first Corporate Director of Beverage Programs for Starwood Hotels & Resorts, Andrea oversaw the entire alcoholic and nonalcoholic beverage program for its North American hotels, including the Sheraton, Westin and W Hotels, and The Luxury Collection. She also launched its award-winning wine education program, lauded by USA Today and numerous trade publications as the most innovative and far-reaching in the industry.
Andrea was named the first woman Cellarmaster for Windows on the World in 1992, and in 1996, reopened the restaurant as Beverage Director. Andrea counts the most significant years of her wine career in service to the Windows family of employees and guests.

Things appear to be moving fast in Washington, as President Obama already seems to be living up to his promise of supporting renewable energy development. But do those in the industry think his policies will work?

Could extended periods of wind turbine downtime be not just a problem of faulty turbines, rather on occasion also be down to the lack of expertise – and poor attitude – of wind turbine Operation and Maintenance (O&M) teams themselves?

If we are to have a sustainable transportation infrastructure that includes hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, we must produce the energy carrier-hydrogen- in large quantities from clean, non-fossil energy sources, and that means from renewables. So exactly what options do we have to put us onto the clean hydrogen path and what challenges need to be overcome along the way?

I love playing the alchemy market. It's proved profitable for me all expansion long. Part of the reason why its been so profitable is a general alchemy specialization imbalance; almost no one chooses Potion Master on my server. Why? Part of the reason is that a lot of people choose Transmutation Master. The other, more important part of the equation: Few casual players know that specializations even exist.
Come patch 4.3, though, that's about to change -- new alchemy specialization quests are being added in your capital city.

Conan Concedes 'Sexiest Man Alive' to Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson in Epic Speech
After narrowly losing People Magazine's Sexiest Man Alive to Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Conan O'Brien gave his concession speech. And though it was a tight race, Conan was graceful in defeat… imaginary defeat. O'Brien is known for being one of funniest hosts in late night, not one of the sexiest men on the planet. But that didn't stop him from conceding that honor to Johnson in a hilarious speech not much different than the real ones we hear when a politician falls in any given election.

ISTANBUL, Turkey, Aug. 14 (UPI) -- Turkey's Kurdish separatist guerillas have been battling the Turkish government since 1984. From bases in northern Iraq, the Kurdistan Works' Party has been mounting guerrilla attacks into southeastern Turkey.
Members of the Kurdistan Works' Party, known by its Turkish language initials of PKK,. Monday kidnapped 11 workers from an earthworks site in the southeastern province of Hakkari.
The militants set fire to 11 trucks and a construction vehicle that were being used in the construction of an airport in Hakkari and then fled, taking 11 drivers from the site with them, Dogan Haber Ajansa news agency reported.
PKK guerrillas Sunday kidnapped parliamentary deputy Huseyin Aygun from the main opposition Republican People's Party, known by the initials CHP, in the southeastern province of Tunceli in the Ovacik district that Aygun represents in Parliament.
The attacks follow a 19-day operation by the Turkish military against the PKK in Hakkari province, which concluded Saturday.
The issue of how to quell the Kurdish insurgency has bedeviled Ankara for many years. By October 2007, increasing cross-border attacks by the PKK, which resulted in 40 casualties and the abduction of eight soldiers, prompted the Turkish Parliament to authorize attacks into northern Iraq against the PKK.
The following month approximately 100,000 Turkish soldiers were posted at the Turkish-Iraqi border awaiting orders before U.S. diplomacy helped to defuse the situation. Washington apparently gave the "green-light for Turks to conduct limited cross-border raids into Iraqi territory," the Middle East Policy Council, a Washington think tank, said.
The situation is different now. Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said the increased PKK attacks are directly linked to the civil war in neighboring Syria, where the Turkish government maintains that a PKK-linked group controls some border areas and is endeavoring to foment unrest in Turkey's southeastern provinces.
Following Aygun's abduction the Turkish army launched operations against the PKK in the Ahponos Valley in Ovacik.
Dismissing calls by the CHP for a parliamentary meeting to discuss the abduction of its deputy, Ruling Justice and Development Party -- AKP -- Deputy Chairman Huseyin Celik commented during an interview with broadcaster Haberturk that calling an extraordinary meeting of Parliament would allow the PKK to set Turkey's political agenda.
"Parliament can meet if necessary, of course," he said, "but we cannot allow the organization to set the agenda just because they raided a place and killed a few soldiers."
Celik added that even though a lawmaker from Turkish Parliament was kidnapped by the PKK, it wouldn't change AKP policy.
Firat News, a Web site affiliated with the PKK, released a statement by the PKK leadership that Aygun "was detained by our guerrillas." Commenting on the subsequent Turkish military operations the statement continued, "This operation is placing Huseyin Aygun's life in danger.
"The CHP and the public must be aware of this and operations must be halted."


text: After a 2-year public engagement exercise on the Review of the Urban Renewal Strategy (URS), the New URS was promulgated by the Government in Feb 2011 and it stresses on "People First, District Based, and Public Participatory Approach". New initiatives have been formulated to allow new modes of redevelopment which could reflect these central principles. In addition to the existing URA self-initiated redevelopment projects, URA may act as a Facilitator to help private owners to assemble titles for public auction, or as an implementation agent in Demand-led redevelopment projects. The main objective is to help speed up urban renewal.

NBA star and husband of Khloe Kardashian Lamar Odom was involved in a near-fatal car accident Thursday while en route to his cousin's funeral in New York City, E! News reports.
The Lakers star was riding in the backseat of a car service when the driver of his vehicle collided with a motorcyclist.
According to MediaTakeOut, a witness reported that the car struck the motorcyclist, who was taken to a nearby hospital. The gossip website reported that a 15-year-old pedestrian was also injured at the time of the crash.

Welcome to the Wharfedale line. On this site you will find details of things to look out for when travelling along the line, a few facts about some of the places it passes through, and also a little about the recent history of the line.
The site has been put together by Peter Denbigh. I travelled on it as a boy from around 1950 and it includes a few of my early memories of those days, as well as more recent times.
The line is perhaps one of the most striking examples of how wrong a large number of the Beeching closures were. It survived total closure at this time by the skin of its teeth largely through the hard work put in by the Ilkley Railway Group. It is now one of the busiest in West Yorkshire following its electrification. Unfortunately the User Group ceased to function in April 2014, largely because it was a victim of its own success. My own personal view is that such a group is still needed to monitor the services on the line and keep the operators on their toes. Any volunteers?
Take a tour of the line.

I have never been close to my family so I mostly depend on my friends for emotional support.
excited for beach week!!
Life sucks, then you die
the reason we are uncomfortable to talk to our parents about our lives, is because we are scared of being judged.
we(most of us) live with both our parents, and though we hate to admit it, they have been our role models at one time or the other, or we look at them to gives us support in our most darkest of times, or we always have a sense of respect towards them.
the last thing we really want to do is alienate them from us by telling them anything that will upset them or make them look down on us. its mostly this fear that keeps us from telling them not anything that might hurt them, but 'anything' at all.
and not to forget the generation gap. when our parents were our age, their worlds were totally different and so were the rules, limits, technology, people's thoughts, basically they lived in a different world than the one we live in now. so there is always this problem in relating our thoughts to theirs'.
as for me, nope. i dont feel comfortable talking to them `bout my life.
friends...my parents get annoying so...yea i dnt talk 2 them much
pfft no! they still think i'm going through some weird phase and that i'm gonna wake up and not care about anime. they don't even know what anime is, to them its just weird cartoons...
Hmm I tell my dad about some things that are going on with my life, but not my mom though. But hopefully when I have a kid, I want her to feel comfortable around me and develop a really close relationship.
if you can spend money on manga you can donate to this site!support shinji!
i don't know why... but most of my friends don't want to listen to me when i talk about my life or personal stuff... They think that im emo and would distance themselves from me a real long time until i solve my personal issues. All they wanted me to talk about is pop stars, video games, what restaurants i went to and other stuff like that... As for my parents... i always talk to them... and when we talk, i feel way more comfortable telling them about my personal stuff because they are the ones that understands me the most... and for the record... i have a great relationship with my parents and sister... so that explains why
" i miss u"
nothing wrong with it ..
I talk about my life only with my friends and roommate,also with my wonderful grandma.
I don't have good relationship with my parents, especially with father.
the third eye..
um, neither. my friends are not to be trusted and my parents......well, i just know their reactions would piss me off.
hillooooooo!!!!!!!!! ^o^
defiantly my friends and my brothers....not my parents
Yes finally got my damn Wii!!
no one.. i dont like talking to anyone.. i personally feel comfort when talk to my sister.. im the serious quiet type when at school but i think its funny cuz no one dares talk to me.. ^^ at least no one bothers me, but i should at least talk more.. oh well, it would be ackward if i sudden started talkn in school and everyone would be surprise.. haha. that wont happen tho.
Its Morphin Time!
I don't talk to my parents concerning my friends and my usual state.
I live in secret. Therefore, any information that I leak will not be a secret anymore =)
Besides that, my parents know that I'm keeping a life which only I know of. But it's an okay for them though
'Life should be spent in a way you can enjoy it ^^ =þ
my friends for sure.
my parents don't understand .__.
i'll miss your arms warmth.
i don't really talk to my parents
or idk if they even care..
i'm in love with robby p.

Local government watchdog The Standards Board for England has raised public confidence by proving there is little corruption going on in councils, a panel of MPs has heard.
Sir Jeremy Beecham, deputy chairman of the Local Government Association, told a scrutiny hearing on the complaints watchdog that the board's work since it was set up almost four years ago had made the public aware of the paucity of cases requiring full investigation.
Asked by members of the urban affairs select committee whether the watchdog had raised standards, he said: "I don't think it has raised standards. I think it has contributed to raising public confidence in local government. I don't think there is any evidence to suggest there are any significant problems with corruption."
Sir Jeremy added that political parties had a role to play improving standards. "There is a responsibility in political parties in raising high standards, and indeed, addressing those who transgress them."
Hackney council's director of legal and democratic services, Claer Lloyd-Jones, argued that complaints deemed either frivolous or 'vexatious' should be dealt with directly by a council, rather than referred to the central complaints body.
But another witness, Denis Wilson, chairman of the standards committee for Northamptonshire council, said the current system, which sees complaints triaged by the Standards Board with the less serious being referred back to councils, was important in maintaining public confidence in the complaints process.
"One of the aims of the exercise is local public confidence, and I feel that if the public see the council were investigating themselves it would lose that confidence," he said.
The MPs heard evidence from a number of witnesses who found significant improvements in the board's performance after a slow start following its inception in March 2001.
This is despite the fact that only 38% of serious investigations were dealt with within six months last year, against a target of 90%, with some councillors still waiting more than a year while an accusation hangs over them.
Chloe Lambert, LGA independent group spokeswoman, said the speed at which cases were resolved was "unacceptable, but were getting better".
Concerns were raised about the stipulation in the Standards Board code of conduct which requires elected members to 'whistleblow' if they have concerns over the council's affairs or face being reported to the Standards Board later on.
Professor Richard Chapman, chairman of the standards committee for Durham council, said this requirement could lead to anxious councillors reporting minor matters merely to protect themselves. "This stimulates people with an excuse where they would not have had a problem previously," he said. "I would be very happy if that were out of the code."

Luxe Pineapple Post Subscription Box Review + Coupon – April 2016
Luxe Pineapple is a female-owned beauty box company and store based in Austin, Texas. Their goal is to source the best in skincare and cosmetics while offering them at great prices. They also have their own brand of cosmetics!
LuxePineapple recently started their own monthly subscription service called Luxe Pineapple Post. April is their inaugural box. Their new box sends you 4 or more beauty and lifestyle items from anything in the makeup, skincare, hair care, beauty accessory, jewelry, clothing accessory categories and more. I took a lot of photos since this is the very first box!
My Subscription Addiction paid for this box. (Check out the review process post to learn more about how we review boxes.)
The Subscription Box: Luxe Pineapple Post
Cost: $24 per month + free shipping (discount with a longer commitment)
COUPON: Save $5 off your first box with coupon code MSA5
The Products: 4 or more beauty and lifestyle items curated to a theme
Ships to: USA only
Check out the Beauty Subscription Box Directory for more beauty boxes and make sure to add Luxe Pineapple Post to your subscription list or wishlist!
This month's box came with an info card, a welcome letter from the owner, Liz, and a coupon code for Rae Cosmetics.
The theme this month is "The Classics."
Contempo Jewelry Hand Wrapped Amazonite Copper Stud – $12
I love how simple but beautiful these earrings are! It's times like these that I'm envious of pierced ears. This may be an exclusive or upcoming item because I don't see it on the Contempo Jewelry website.
Rae Cosmetics Lush Silk Mascara – $18
Rae Cosmetics is a woman-owned beauty company based in Austin, Texas (same as LuxePineapple). Their products are cruelty-free and "designed for active women and athletes looking for performance as well as beauty from their cosmetics." The mascara contains silk powder and is infused with chamomile, juniper and vitamins A, C and E. I think the formula gives a natural look while feeling soft and comfortable on the lashes. That said it doesn't dry quickly, so you can't just put it on and start jogging on the treadmill. It does, however, do a good job of staying put while exercising.
Demeter Fragrance Library Jasmine Roll On Perfume Oil 0.29oz – $10.20
I have yet to smell a Demeter fragrance that I don't like. This is a roll-on perfume oil in Jasmine. It smells warm but delicate, never cloying. I like the fragrance a lot! The info card mentions this as "an exotic, sweet, warm floral bouquet." The scent didn't linger on my skin very long but I don't mind reapplying throughout the day. This rollerball is also super portable.
MOODmatcher Lipstick in Green – $4
To be honest I was freaked out by the color at first. The lipstick looked more like a toy and less like makeup. However, I'm glad I held off judgment until I tried it out. It feels like a lightweight lip balm. The green color turns into a very pretty and semi-opaque pink on my lips. I can also attest to the "12 hour lip color" claim on the lipstick– it leaves a vibrant tint even after eating and drinking and remains for multiple hours. Between the long-lasting color and moisturizing properties, this will replace my Maybelline Baby Lips lip balm, effective immediately.
MOODmatcher Split Stick in Green/Orange – $6
Similar to the MOODmatcher green lipstick, this one has a green side and orange side. The green side turns into the same delicate pink hue, while the orange turns into a more peachy pink. You can also mix these colors together for a completely different color. I'll definitely get a lot of use out of both these lipsticks.
Swatch of MOODmatcher lipsticks. The top shade is Green and the bottom shade is Orange. The first photo is taken 5 minutes after applying to my arm, and the second photo is taken 9 hours later.
Lord & Berry Fluid Delicate – $30
This is a makeup remover, toner, and treatment for eyes and face. It's fragrance free, safe for contact lens wearers, and formulated for all skin types. I didn't know what "Fluid Delicate" meant, but upon using this it felt like micellar water. Sure enough, Lord & Berry's updated packaging lists this as micellar water. This does a good job of removing regular makeup, but you may want a heavier duty remover for waterproof eye makeup. My face feels a little tacky when it dries (although it's not exclusive to this micellar water) so I prefer to use it as a makeup remover and not a toner or treatment.
Verdict: I'm so impressed with this month's Luxe Pineapple Post. It's a great mix of beauty and wearables. My favorites are probably the MOODmatcher lipsticks– it goes to show that you should never judge a book by its cover. I also really like the gentle Lord & Berry Fluid Delicate! Total retail value is $80.20, which I think is huge for a small beauty company to accomplish! I paid $20 for this box (with a prepaid 6-month plan) so that made me even happier.
A couple of things to point out if you want to subscribe: their new website is lacking some essential links such as how to easily login to your account. I received an email link to access my new account after I purchased the subscription. Customer service is awesome though so if you're having trouble be sure to contact them about it.
What do you think of the first Luxe Pineapple Post? What's your favorite item?

Jose Mourinho has admitted that Chelsea are interested in Cesc Fabregas after Gerard Pique inadvertently revealed to the Press that a deal for his Barcelona team-mate was already in place.
Barcelona defender Gerard Pique was caught on camera informing Spanish coach Del Bosque that Fabregas will be leaving Barcelona and that a deal worth £26.8 million was already in place. Unaware that his conversation was being recorded, Pique let it slip that Fabregas was not happy at Barcelona and was looking for a way out of Camp Nou.
"Someone needs to stand up for Cesc. He's told me it's a done deal. He's leaving now for 33 million."
Del Bosque was then caught on camera suggesting that the Barcelona President has his work cut out for him in the coming weeks.
"The president just can't seem to catch a break. You're going to drive the poor guy crazy."
It has since then been suggested that Chelsea is Fabregas' preferred destination and rumours stated that Mourinho had already signed the former Arsenal midfielder in a bid to strengthen his team. Adding fuel to the fire, Mourinho himself admitted that they are 'interested' in Fabregas and that they are closely 'monitoring' the situation.
"We have some (interest in Fabregas). I have interest in analysing the situation."
Following an unsuccessful season at Barcelona, there has been a lot of talk about Fabregas' place in the Catalan squad and how he is often left on the sidelines. Pique himself admitted that Fabregas is not given much importance in the club and suggested that he wanted the midfielder to stay back with him next season.
Mourinho too revealed that Fabregas wants to leave Barcelona and suggested that England was his preferred destination as he is familiar with the English Premier League due to his years spent at Arsenal under Arsene Wenger.
"It looks like he's really interested in leaving Barcelona, and is very interested in coming back to England. This is clear. But it's not for now, or tomorrow, or for before the World Cup."
"There is a process where he wants to leave, he wants to come to England because it's the country where he wants to be and where he prefers to play. We are interested in monitoring the situation."
National team-mate Fernando Torres too has backed Fabregas to move to Chelsea in the coming season, suggesting that he can propel the London club to new heights with his dominance in the middle of the park. Torres believes that if Fabregas is made to feel like a 'leader', like he was at Arsenal, then the Barcelona midfielder can drive the team on his own.
"Big players are always good signings. We know Cesc well, he knows the [English] league and he was always one of the best players at Arsenal."
"[Fabregas] likes to play good football and will offer technique, a cutting edge and also goals."
"If he's made to feel important, a leader – just as he was when at Arsenal – he can drive the team on and he's a type of player Chelsea don't have right now."
THT VERDICT: With just a week left for the World Cup to start, it is quite certain that Fabregas will only take a call regarding his future after returning from Brazil. But will former arch-rival Jose Mourinho succeed in luring Fabregas away from Barcelona? Though this transfer seemed highly improbably earlier, with Mourinho admitting that they are interested in Fabregas, it will not be surprising if the midfielder does feel tempted to move back to England. It is quite apparent that he is not well appreciated at Barcelona and will most likely leave Spain at the end of the summer and is reportedly being eyed by clubs other than Chelsea. Manchester United publicly tried to sign Fabregas last season and could again pursue the midfielder given their lack of quality midfielders. Arsene Wenger too would be keeping an eye on the proceedings as he wouldn't mind being reunited with his former prodigy. Rumours suggest that Arsenal have the first say if Barcelona does decide to sell Fabregas. So with plenty of options in front of him, it will be interesting to see how the summer pans out for the midfielder who will be hoping for a strong performance at the World Cup to increase his value in the transfer market.

- General info
What is Wheelmap.org?
Wheelmap is a map for finding wheelchair accessible places. The map works similiar to Wikipedia: anyone can contribute and mark public places around the world according to their wheelchair accessibility. The criteria for marking places is based on a simple traffic light system:
= Green = Fully wheelchair accessible
= Yellow = Partly wheelchair accessible
= Red = Not wheelchair accessible
Places that are not yet marked according to their wheelchair accessibility have a grey marker. They can be marked by anybody quickly and easily. The information that is collected in this way is easy to understand, available free of charge and can be shared freely. Wheelmap.org is based on the world map OpenStreetMap and shows 130 different types of places. These place types are illustrated by the icons in the green, yellow, red and grey markers. Have a look a the entire list of icons that are currently shown on Wheelmap.
Wheelmap.org is available as a web application and as an app for iPhone, Android und Windows 10.
How does Wheelmap.org work?
The Wheelmap traffic light system is a simple and easy to understand way to rate the accessibility of public places.
The accessibility status:
= Fully wheelchair accessible
- Entrance: without steps
- Rooms: can all be reached without steps (e.g. all auditoriums in a cinema)
= Partially wheelchair accessible
- Entrance: no more than one step which is not higher than 7 cm (3 in) (approx. one hand width)
- Rooms: the most important rooms can be reached without steps (e.g. certain auditoriums in a cinema)
= Not wheelchair accessible
- Entrance: has at least one step that is higher than 7 cm (3 in) (approx. one hand width)
- Rooms: cannot be reached without steps
= Unknown
- The wheelchair accessibility of the place is still unknown and needs to be marked
The toilet accessibility status:
The accessibility of a toilet can be marked independently from the accessibility of the place where the toilet is located.
= Wheelchair accessible toilet
- Doorway's inner width is at least 90 cm (35 in)
- Clear floor space is at least 150 cm × 150 cm (59 x 59 in)
- Wheelchair-height toilet seat
- Folding grab rails (or something similar)
- Wheelchair accessible hand basin
= No wheelchair accessible toilet
= Unknown
How can I get involved with Wheelmap.org?
You can help to further complete Wheelmap as a mapper by
– marking the wheelchair accessibility of places and toilets,
– adding new places,
– editing place info (name, address, telephonenumber),
– uploading photos of entrances.
In addition, there are other projects related to Wheelmap in which you can participate. You can organize a mapping event, become a Wheelmap Ambassador or become a partner and organize your own "MapMyDay". Everyone can take part – individuals, businesses, organizations etc.
Who owns the map's data?
Wheelmap is based on the free world map OpenStreetMap and all the data is stored there. The data sets are published under the Open Database License (ODbL) and are available to anyone and can be used free of charge. Sozialhelden e.V. only incorporates this data into the OpenStreetMap.
Who is behind Wheelmap.org?
Wheelmap.org is a project run by the nonprofit organization SOZIALHELDEN e.V. The organization strives to make people aware of problems in society and to motivate them to change their way of thinking. SOZIALHELDEN has been pursuing this mission since 2004.
Some of our other projects include BrokenLifts, a service for indicating malfunctioning elevators in the public transportation system, the mobile ramp Wheelramp (Sozialhelden UG), a bottle receipt donation project Pfandtastisch helfen!, Leidmedien.de – Reporting about People with Disabilities, Gesellschaftsbilder.de – a photo database with pictures with new perspectives and "Die Andersmacher" a series of video portraits of role models with a disability. And we always have new ideas!
If you like our work you can support us with your donation here.
How is Wheelmap.org funded?
The project is made possible through prize money, sponsoring and donations as well as a great deal of volunteering from around the world. Our web and app developers keep Wheelmap running and optimize the map within our financial possibilities.
You too can support the Wheelmap with your donation at any time.
- How to search and what is shown
What do the symbols in the colored markers mean?
The little symbols in the the colored markers represent the types of places that are shown on Wheelmap.org. There are a total of 130 different types of places in the categories Public Transport, Food, Leisure, Bank/Post Office, Shopping, Education, Sports, Tourism, Accomodation, Government, Health and Miscellaneous. With a little practice you will quickly learn to recognize the most important symbols (icons).
The entire list of place (node) types and categories that are currently shown on Wheelmap can be found here.
A place has no color or the wrong color. What can I do?
If a place is not yet marked (is grey), or if you are certain that the color of the marker is incorrect, then you can change the color of the marker at any time yourself with just a few clicks in the browser version of www.wheelmap.org or in the apps for iPhone, Android or Windows Phone (10). You do not even need to be registered to be able to do this.
If a place is not on the map yet, then you can add it yourself. First take a look at our list of node types, to see if the type of place you want to add is even shown on Wheemap. An explanation on how to add a new place can be found here.
Why can't I find some places on Wheelmap.org?
If a public place cannot be found on Wheelmap, then it may be that the place has not yet been entered on the map. Wheelmap is based on the OpenStreetMap, a community project similar to Wikipedia. Only the buildings, streets, parks, subway stations or rivers that have already been entered by users into the OpenStreetMap databank are part of OpenStreetMap and are visible on Wheelmap. Instructions on how you can add new places to Wheelmap yourself can be found here.
Another reason why a place might not appear on Wheelmap is when it is not one of the 130 types of places (nodes) that are currently being shown by Wheelmap.org. This list shows you all of Wheelmap's place types. New place types are added to the list when it becomes clear that there is a need for them, integrating new types is technically feasible and we have the necessary funds to do so. Unfortunately this is not always the case. Please be patient!
Which places are shown on Wheelmap.org?
Wheelmap is based on the free world map OpenStreetMap and that is where all the possible place (node) types are defined. Of those we have chosen approximately 130 types of public places from different categories (shopping, food, health, recreation etc.) that are relevant for Wheelmap. If a place (node) type is not on Wheelmap, please take a look at the possible OpenStreetMap map features to see if the place type is defined there. If the place (node) type exists on OpenStreetMap and you think such places are relevant for Wheelmap, please send an email with your suggestion to info[at]wheelmap.org. Please note: Wheelmap.org is a map for wheelchair accessible places – streets and routing information is not and will not be shown on the map. Thanks!
The entire list of place (node) types and categories that are currently shown on Wheelmap can be found here.
Where do the grey markers come from?
The grey markers are provided by the free world map OpenStreetMap, whose geodata is the foundation of Wheelmap. A place shows up grey on Wheelmap when its basic information has been entered on OpenStreetMap but the additional information on its accessibility is still missing. You can change this easily with a few clicks. This additional information is then also added to OpenStreetMap and is made available to thousands of users there.
How can I find wheelchair accessible toilets on Wheelmap?
You can find wheelchair accessible toilets in the category "Miscellaneous". If you deselect all the other categories then only the places in the category "Miscellaneous" will be shown.
This is the symbol for public toilets that are wheelchair accessible.
In addition to searching for the place type "public toilet" you can also find accessible toilets in restaurants, cafés etc. Wheelmap not only shows the general accessibility of a place but also of the toilet on its premises. This means that every place on Wheelmap has two ratings which can be marked independently from each other.
Using the WC filter you can limit the selection of places shown so that (for example) only those places will show up that have an accessible toilet.
The Wheelmap criteria for a wheelchair accessible toilet:
- Doorway's inner width is minimally 90 cm (35 in)
- Clear floor space is at least 150 cm × 150 cm (59 x 59 in)
- Wheelchair-height toilet seat
- Folding grab rails (or something similar)
- Wheelchair accessible hand basin
- Marking places and adding new places
How do I mark a place?
It is really easy to mark places on the map.
- Use the "Search" function on the map to look for the name of the place or its address as well as the city where it is located.
- Or navigate to the location on the map where the place is by changing the zoom level and using the mouse or by manually moving the map segment to the desired location. (Note: some places will only be visible on the map when you have reached the highest zoom level using +)
- Click on the place.
- Mark the accessibility of the place and of the toilet on its premises by clicking on the respective button. That's all!
You can learn more about the Wheelmap traffic light system for marking places.
Which criteria need to be considered when marking a place?
Using a traffic light system for rating the accessibility of public places joining the mapping activities on Wheelmap.org is easy. The two main criteria relate to the question if the entrance of a place is accessible without steps and if all rooms in the inside of the place are accessible without steps:
The wheelchair accessibility status:
= Wheelchair accessible
- Entrance: steplessand:
- Rooms: all can be reached without steps (e.g. all auditoriums in a cinema)
= Partially wheelchair accessible
- Entrance: has one step which is no higher than 7 cm (3 in) (appox. one hand width)and/ or:
- Rooms: the most important rooms can be reached without steps (e.g. certain auditoriums in a cinema), but not all
= Not wheelchair accessible
- Entrance: has one or more steps higher than 7 cm (3 in) (approx. one hand handwith)
and/ or:
- Rooms: cannot be reached without steps
= Unknown
- The accessibility of a place is unknown and still needs to be marked
When rating a place you need to consider the following:
The properties of doors (e.g. swinging door, heavy, difficult to open) are not criteria within the Wheelmap traffic light system. The needs of persons with mobility restrictions are so varied that it is not possible to define a simple uniform criterium in for this. Information on doors can be added as comments in the section with details of a place.
Side doors
When a place has stairs at the main entrance, but has a stepless back or side entrance, that is well marked at the front of the buildingWenn ein Ort zwar eine Stufe am Haupteingang, dafür aber einen ebenerdigen Hintereingang hat, der an der Vorderseite des Gebäudes auch gut sichtbar ausgeschildert ist, kann der Ort (wenn die restlichen Kriterien auch erfüllt sind) grün markiert werden.
Both the height of an ATMs as well as its accessibility (stepless access) need to be taken into account. The user who is rating an ATM's accessibility should ask him or herself: "Can the the operating surface (keys, card slot, etc.) be reached by a person in a wheelchair?"
Bus stops and stations
At bus stops and train stations, only the wheelchair accessibility of the stop or station itself is relevant for the rating, that is if the waiting area can be entered without steps due to a lowered curb e.g. The accessibility of the public transportation vehicles is not rated. The local provider must be consulted with regard to the accessibility of its public transportation vehicles.
Parking lots and parking garages are rated as to whether or not they are basically wheelchair accessible. In addition to considering if they have a stepless access – in parking garages if they have an elevator for reaching the different levels – the type of surface is also important. If a parking lot has a grass or gravel surface it should be marked as "not wheelchair accessible" (red). Individual, so-called "disabled parking spaces" can not be displayed on Wheelmap at this time due to technical reasons.
- If a mobile ramp is available at a place, and this is clearly communicated with a sign at the entrance, the place can be marked yellow.
- If a ramp is permanently installed at the entrance to a place, the place can be marked green.
- If a ramp seems to be too steep or too narrow, this can be noted in the comments section of the place (e.g. "relatively steep ramp".
The accessibility status of toilets:
Idependently from the accessibility status of the entrance the toilet status of a place can be rated as well:
= Wheelchair accessible toilet
- Doorway's inner width is minimally 90 cm (35 in)
- Clear floor space is at least 150 cm × 150 cm (59 x 59 in)
- Wheelchair-height toilet seat
- Folding grab rails (or something similar)
- Wheelchair accessible hand basin
= No wheelchair accessible toilet
= Unknown
How can I change the marker of a place?
How can I add a new place to Wheelmap?
In order to add new places you must log in on Wheelmap with an OpenStreetMap account. You can learn more about registering here.
This is how to add a new place
- Log in on www.wheelmap.org or on the iPhone, Android or WindowsPhone10 app.
- Go to "Add another place" or the "Plus" button at the top right of the map.
- Fill out the form (name of the place, place type, address).
- In order to pinpoint the right location of the place in the street you may have to move the marker manually.
- Mark the wheelchair accessibilility of the place and of the toilet on the premises. If you want, you can add additional comments about the entrance, a ramp, the width of the door etc.
- Upload a photo of the entrance of the place (optional).
- Save.
Note: Because changes have to be synchronised with OpenStreetMap it can take a moment until the place and the newly added information is visible on Wheelmap.
In case you encounter problems send an email to info[at]wheelmap.org.
- Editing a place's detailed info
How can I change or add to the detailed info of a place?
If you come across incorrect information about a place, such as a wrong name, address or telephone number, you can correct this info as a registered user. You can also always add additional information such as a short text describing the accessibility of a place.
- Make sure that you are logged in with your OpenStreetMap. You can find instructions on how to do this under "How do I register with Wheelmap.org?"
- Click on a place on the map. When the preview screen opens, click on the pencil or edit symbol.
- Save your changes. It may take a moment before your changes can be seen online.
Unter "Anmerkungen" kannst du detailliertere Informationen zu dem Ort speichern (etwa "Rampe am Hintereingang" oder "Tür ziemlich schmal" etc.). You can add detailed under "comments"
Why should I upload photos of a place? What should the photos show?
Photos of entrances of restaurants, cinemas, stores etc. give people with mobility restrictions the possibility to judge for themselves if a place is accessible for them or not. Even if there is a small step at the entrance, with a photo a wheelchair user can decide if her or she is able to manage that specific step on their own or if assistance is needed.
That is why it is important that the entrance is clearly visible on the photo. The photo should answer these questions: Are there steps at the entrance? Approximately how high is the step? Is the door wide enough?
If possible, the name of the place (if it has a sign) and the house number should be visible.
If you like, you can upload several photos of a place. You can read how here.
How do I upload photos of a place?
Uploading photos with the apps:
- Click on a place. A preview screen will open.
- Click on the camera symbol, select the relevant photograph(s) from your smartphone or take a new photo directly.
- Confirm the selection and upload the photo(s). This may take a moment.
Uploading photos on the Wheelmap.org website:
- Click on a place to open it. Click on the "Details" button that appears on the next screen.
- Click on the camera symbol.
- Select photos from your hard drive.
Please note: The photograph must be in a JPG or PNG format. It should not be larger than 10 MB. If it is larger it will not be uploaded.
How can I delete photos of a place?
You can only delete photos that you yourself have uploaded. Deleting is only possible over your profile on www.wheelmap.org.
- Open the Wheelmap browser version at www.wheelmap.org/map.
- Go to "Profile".
- Log in on Wheelmap.org with your OpenStreetMap account.
- In "Photoalbum" you can find all the photos that you have contributed.
- Click on the "x" in the right lower corner to delete the photograph.
How can I delete a place or info about a place?
If the information about a place is no longer correct you can change it directly in OpenStreetMap. If for instance a restaurant has gone out of business you can remove its name, category and marking which are saved as "tags" to the place. The "tags" for the street and house number will remain as datasets in the OpenStreetMap. In this way the other details can easily be added again at a later time should the restaurant open again under another name. Please don't ever delete a place on OpenStreetMap entirely just because a business has closed its doors!
How to edit or delete a place on OpenStreetMap
- Go to http://www.openstreetmap.org
- Log in with your OpenStreetMap account (the same account with which you log in on Wheelmap.org).
- Important: under "Edit" choose the option "Edit with ID (in-browser editor)".
If you want to edit a place:
- Click on a "node" (a white drop); the "node" marks a place such as a store, a bar etc.
- A sidebar will open where you can see and edit the information about the "node".
- Every piece of information (such as the street, category, opening times etc.) is a "tag".
- Under "All Tags" you can see all the pieces of information, that have been assigned to the "node" or place.
- Here you can delete individual "tags" by clicking on the trash can symbol.
- If a business has closed its doors permanently you can delete the "tag" "name" and all other information relating to the specific business (such as opening times etc.).
- Important: do not delete the address etc. of the place. This information is still relevant!
- Click on "Save" in order to save your changes.
- You can add comments to explain your changes, such as "permanently closed". Then the administrators of OpenStreetMap will know why you changed or deleted information about the place. If you want to edit a building:
- Click on the red outline of the building (is described as a "way").
- Proceed as in steps 6. to 12.
- Important: never delete an entire building from OpenStreetmap if you are not 100% certain that the building has been torn down!
In case you have trouble with this process you can also send us a list with the places and all the information that needs to be changed. We will then take care of making those changes for you.
- Registering and logging in
How do I register with Wheelmap.org?
In order to be able to use all of the functions of Wheelmap.org you need an OpenStreetMap account. After you have registered with OpenStreetMap (OSM) you can log in on Wheelmap.org and on the apps with your OpenStreetMap account.
Here is how:
- Register an account with OSM at https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/new or follow the registration process on the log in page of the apps. OSM will then send you a confirmation email. Activate your account with a click on the link provided.
- To log in on Wheelmap: Click on login (in the browser version of Wheelmap) or on your profile (in the apps) and log in to Wheelmap with the username and password of your OSM account. Done!
You did not receive an email with a confirmation link? Make sure your email address is correct and check if the email might have landed in your spam folder.
Why do I need an OpenStreetMap account in order to log in on Wheelmap.org?
Wheelmap is based on OpenStreetMap, a free map of the world that, like Wheelmap, is published under the Open Data License. The grey places on Wheelmap which have not yet been rated according to their accessibility are provided by OpenStreetMap. This means that when you add a new place to Wheelmap or edit the information of a place, you simultaneously add that information to OpenStreetMap also. And you can only do that on OpenStreetMap as a registered user. Because the geodata there is used for many other applications.
You can find out how to register an OpenStreetMap account here so you can log in to Wheelmap.
Why do I need an addtional profile on Wheelmap.org?
In the browser version of Wheelmap.org you have the possibility of creating your own profile with which you can use some additional functions. You can see how many places you have marked, edited and added and how many photos of places you have uploaded. In the photo album you can delete individual photos. In addition, with the button "Widget" you can incorporate a segment of Wheelmap into your own website:
That's how you can create your profile:
- You neither have an OpenStreetMap account nor a Wheelmap account yet? You can register for both at a time.
- You've already registered with an OpenStreetMap account but you don't have a Wheelmap profile yet? Just log in on www.wheelmap.org with your OSM login data by clicking on "Login" on the top right of the website. Then click on the same button that has now switched to "Profile" – enter your e-mail address again here. Afterwards you can add more details to your profile.
Please note: After registration on OpenStreetMap you'll receive a confirmation mail with a link that you need to click in order to finalize the registration process. If this e-mail does not appear in your mailbox please check your spam folder and make sure you have not misspelled your address when typing it in.
I forgot my password. Now what?
To be able to log in on Wheelmap.org you need an OpenStreetMap account.
Note: To log in on the smartphone Wheelmap apps you also need a Wheelmap account. You can create one by clicking on "Profile" in the top right corner of the map at www.wheelmap.org.
- If you have forgotten the password for your OpenStreetMap account:
Please go to Forgot password in the OpenStreetMap Wiki.
There you can ask to be sent a randomly generated password by email.
- If you have forgotten your password for your Wheelmap account:
Please go to Forgot password at Wheelmap.org.
- Technical & Support
How can I report a double entry or an entry that needs to be deleted?
If you have accidentally entered a place twice on the map, or a place no longer exits, you can just let us know at www.wheelmap.org
- Open the map at www.wheelmap.org.
- Click on the place that you want to report.
- Click on the lightning symbol at the bottom right.
- Click on the letter symbol.
- An email with a pre-formulated text, which you need to complete, will open.
- Click on send. We will process your message as quickly as possible.
I successfully added a new place but it is not immediately visible on Wheelmap. Why?
It can take a few minutes until a new place is visible on Wheelmap. This is because the new information is first sent to OpenStreetMap before being relayed back to Wheelmap.
If you had no problems entering the place in the form and you did not receive an error message, please wait and do not enter the place again. Otherwise it can happen that the place appears on the more than once.
My markings and changes have not been implemented. Why?
It can take a few minutes until new marks rating the wheelchair accessibility of places and toilets appear on Wheelmap.org. This is because the information is first sent to OpenStreetMap before it is relayed back to Wheelmap
If you did not receive an error message and you could save the new information without a problem then please wait a while before you edit the information on a place again and again.

Senate Cloakroom:
The Senate returns this week after a three-week absence. In the wake of passing an unpopular health care bill, the Senators must now contend with another unpopular issue – increasing the nation's debt limit by nearly $1 trillion. The debate, which is expected to last into next week, will highlight our looming entitlement crisis, excessive spending and the increasingly aggressive involvement of government in our economy.
Major Floor Action:
A vote on Beverly Martin to be a US Circuit Court judge will kick off what is likely to be a busy week of floor action. Up to a dozen amendments are expected on the debt limit increase (H J Res 45). Amendments on TARP, EPA regulations, spending caps and PAYGO are possible. The most touted amendment is the fatally flawed Conrad-Gregg fiscal task force.
Major Committee Action:
The Christmas Day terrorist attack will come under scrutiny, with the Homeland Security, Judiciary, Commerce and Intelligence Committees all holding hearings.
House Cloakroom:
The White House and Democrat Congressional Leadership have once again retreated behind closed doors to make deals and finalize a single version of their government takeover of health care. Major issues still facing the Democrats include taxes, abortion, the inclusion of a government-run plan or exchange, and Medicare.
Major Floor Action:
The House will likely consider three bills dealing with disputed water rights claims between the States of New Mexico and Arizona and a number of American Indian tribes in the Southwest.
Major Committee Action:
The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee is expected to hold a hearing to question Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner about his role in the bailout of American International Group Inc.
