Personalised Cherished Number Plates
Since their humble beginning in 1903, cherished numbers have continued to increase in popularity often adding the finishing touch to our prized possessions and very often prove to be a valuable investment.
The First Number Plate Ever Issued
A1 assigned in 1903
The Motor Car Act 1903, which came into force on 1 January 1904, required all motor vehicles to be entered on an official vehicle register, and to carry number plates. The Act was passed in order that vehicles could be easily traced in the event of an accident or contravention of the law. Vehicle registration number plates in the UK are rectangular or square in shape, with the exact permitted dimensions of the plate and its lettering set down in law.
You can find out where your personalised registration number plate was originally issued here.
A high-end four-wheeler carrying an 'MLA' sticker was spotted parked in Prakashnagar, Begumpet with a fancy registration plate carrying the number AP2 AB 2222.
The vehicle was spotted by Mr Hari Satya Sandeep, a social media user who often shares pictures of traffic rule violation on the Facebook page and Twitter handles of the Hyderabad traffic police. Mr Sandeep said the car with MLA sticker was not parked properly and its fancy number plate was a violation of the rule.
"When I checked its challans on the Hyderabad traffic police e-challan portal there were no pending challans. They may have cleared the challans but in that case they would have changed the number plate if they were fined for it," Mr Sandeep said.
Asked about this, Dr V. Ravinder, joint commissioner Hyderabad traffic police, said, "As we have received the complaint we will look into the matter and will take action accordingly."
Mr Vinod Kanumala, chief functionary of the Indian Federation of Road Safety, said, "Abuse of rules by LAs is very common. The law makers are the primary law breakers." He said he had noticed a barcode number plate on a car in the city.
Number plate 2 of category 1 was the biggest attraction at the Abu Dhabi Police's open vehicle number plates auction on Saturday, sold for Dh10.1 million.
The popular auction generated a revenue of more than Dh55 million, auctioning 60 distinguished Abu Dhabi number plates at Emirates Palace hotel.
Abu Dhabi Police, in cooperation with Emirates Auction, held the public auction on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of its establishment.
Organised by Emirates Auction, the auction listed the numbers on the company's website, including five double-digit plates, 15 three-digit plates, 19 four-digit and 17 five-digit plates.
Number plate 2 was the only one-digit licence plate in the auction, and was the first one-digit Category 1 number plate sold in a public auction.
Other number plates featured in the auction were 10, 60, 333, 600, 999, 1000, 1111, 5050, 6000, 6060, 6666, 9090, 9999, 10000, 55555, 60000, 66666.
WOULD you pay more than $150,000 for a piece of metal measuring just 19cm by 13cm?
That's the length to which collectors of historic South Australian licence plates are prepared to go to secure their piece of SA motoring history.
The 17 historic SA plates to go under the hammer have reserves ranging from $2999 for SA "467-470'' to $120,000 for SA "90'', right up to $149,999 for SA "29''.
Stewart Kay, proprietor of Historic Plates, said licence plates had proven to be great investments.
"In terms of their metallic value, forget gold and platinum, it's the most expensive metal in the world," he said.
"Some of the three-digit numbers we have ranging from $17,500 to $22,000 – and we've sold some three-digit numbers for more than $50,000 previously – they were $1500 only in the late 2000s, so they've increased quite significantly in that time.
"We find people are using them in their self-managed super fund or to finish off their collectable car.
"If you've just bought the latest $400,000 Porsche or Mercedes or whatever, a $20,000 numberplate is the only way to finish it off."
SA Government records show the "29" plate was first issued in 1907 to Dr E.V Fooks of Gawler, who registered it on an 8hp De Dion car.
"The reserve is $150,000 and we've arrived at that on past sales, but interestingly a couple of months ago, the number 29 Sydney plate sold in Sydney for $750,000," Mr Kay said.
"All of our plates usually sell online or the following day but we offer all our plates at a market correct reserve. But under auction, anything is possible.
"The days of a $1 million South Australian numberplate is not too far off."
So what else could you spend $150,000 on in South Australia?
According to realestate.com.au, $149,000 will buy you a three-bedroom home on 615sqm at Elizabeth East. For $149,990 you could drive away in a new 2017 Maserati Levante 3L 6 cylinder SUV.
And if you'd prefer a holiday, $150,000 will buy a couple 34 nights in the exclusive Osprey Pavillion of Kangaroo Island's luxurious Southern Ocean Lodge.
Number Plates as an alternative investment
Investing in car registration plates may seem like an unorthodox way of making money and a considerable statement in the process. Nevertheless, hundreds of investors and drivers now choose to purchase car registration plates with significant future returns available. The most obvious reason for purchasing car registration plates is to personalise your vehicle, to make you stand out from the crowd.
Even a mere decade ago, drivers with personalised registration plates were seen as wealthy and successful. In the present day, car registration plates are now more accessible and economical for the everyday working man to purchase. Drivers looking for a potential investment must keep in mind that the registration plate they purchase must be easy to sell on in the future.
ITP had launched a 15-day campaign for awareness among road users to remove unauthorised or non-patterned number plates from their vehicles and bikes.
The campaign was launched under the directions of Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan, with the purpose to ensure high security alert, and maintain law and order situation in the capital.
The campaign will end after two days on April 15 after which strict legal action will be taken against drivers whose vehicles have non-patterned number plates.
All such number plates would be considered fake and a fine would be imposed on such vehicle owners. The Traffic SSP had sent letters to government and private organisations regarding this campaign. He also appealed that the citizens cooperate with ITP and display authorised number plates issued by Excise and Taxation Office.
Bidders allowed to purchase an unlimited number of private vehicle number plates in Kingdom's first ever public auction
Manama, Apr. 12 (BNA): The first public auction of private vehicle number plates will take place at 18:00 on 13 April at the Isa Sports City Hall D, adjacent to the Bahrain National Stadium.
The auction, organised by Mazad, will open for registration between 11:00 to 17:00 on 13 April. In line with the company's commitment to fairness and transparency, Mazad has announced that there will be a set amount of seats available for non-participating members of the public, which will be allocated on a first come first serve basis.
Mr Talal Arif Alaraifi, CEO of Mazad, stated that the fast track service opened to all interested parties generated a large amount of interest at all locations, including at the Notary Office, Gosi Commercial Complex, and the Bahrain Investors Centre in Bahrain Financial Harbour.
Mr Alaraifi also highlighted that all the necessary procedures have been put in place ahead of the auction, and that the successful preparation is a reflection of the wide-ranging stakeholder engagement that has been undertaken. Mr Alaraifi also noted that a separate office for issuing power of attorney will be allocated in the auction venue.
The CEO called on those wishing to participate in the auction to bring all necessary documentation to the venue, including ID cards, and to ensure they have signed the participation form. Mr Alaraifi noted that company owners can register in the name of their companies through individuals authorised by law, and provide original power of attorney documentation at the event.
Mr Al Araifi further noted that regardless of nationality, bidders registered to participate will be able to purchase an unlimited number of private vehicle number plates. Buyers must complete the payment process within ten days, and upon completion of payment will be provided with an official certificate of ownership and have the freedom to use and/or assign the private number plate.
The first series of number plates were issued in 1903 and ran until 1932, using the series A 1 to YY 9999. The letter or pair of letters indicated the local authority in whose area the vehicle was registered, for example A - London, B - Lancashire, C - West Riding of Yorkshire. In England and Wales the letter codes were initially allocated in order of population size (by the 1901 census) whilst Scotland and Ireland had their own sequences incorporating the letters S and I respectively, which were allocated alphabetically: IA = Antrim, IB = Armagh, etc. When a licensing authority reached 9999, it was allocated another two letter mark, but there was no pattern to these subsequent allocations as they were allocated on a first come first served basis. There are three interesting anomalies where a zero has been issued - The Lord Provost of Edinburgh has S 0 and his Glasgow counterpart has G 0 while the official car of the Lord Provost of Aberdeen has RG 0. In addition the Lord Mayor of London has the registration LB 0.
Trevor, or Stretch to his mates because he is "very tall", is a mine worker who loves his car so much that his choice of numberplate had to reflect that passion.
The GT4EVA plates take pride of place on his XY GT Falcon.
"I just wanted to put some numberplates on it that stood out from the rest," Trevor said.
He is one of 3644 Rockhampton region residents who in the past year have personalised their vehicle with unique numberplates.
The plates cost from $165 to $3300 and the region is home to a wide array of unique registrations including these beauties: OMG MUD, HIP100, L1VE1T, C1NDYS, SPUNKYB and FORD36.
For some people, personalised plates are like chips - you can't have just one.
And Trevor is a prime example of that.
He has MAC392 on his Mustang and he also has TKD11 (his initials and date of birth) on another vehicle and SRD12 on his partner's car.
"I just love them - it just makes your car different to everybody else's," Trevor said.
Personalised Plates Queensland managing director Jemma Elder said more than 750,000 personalised plates had been issued.
Jemma said vehicle owners were happy to spend big on them because they were a "fun and creative way" to express themselves.
"A lot of people are very proud of their vehicles and it's a way for them to express themselves and their passion for their cars and to complement the look of their car," she said.
While most people opt for letter and number combinations that will not offend, there are some motorists who like to choose plates that are not appropriate for our roads.
"We work very closely with the Department of Transport and Main Roads who provide very strict guidelines to adhere to," Jemma said.
"We run every plate against the very strict assessment criteria to ensure they are clean and that they are appropriate for display."
While PPQ sells the unique regos on more than 250 types of plates and designs, it's the DTMR that produces the finished plate.
Canberrans who want to show their support for marriage equality can now do so in a novel way - rainbow number plates.
Following the legalisation of same-sex marriage, the ACT government has announced it will bring into circulation number plates with a rainbow band instead of the traditional slogan.
The colourful plates will cost a one-off fee of $60 and regulatory services minster Gordon Ramsay said he expected demand for them to be high.
The fee covers the cost of production of the plate, and unlike the rainbow buses and roundabout, Mr Ramsay said there would be no extra cost to the ACT taxpayer.
ACT government to offer free marriage certificates for same-sex couples who wed when briefly legal in Canberra
Location chosen for Canberra's rainbow roundabout
"The government has been supportive all the way through of people's rights," Mr Ramsay said.
"We're the most welcoming and inclusive city and I want to make sure we continue to be able affirm that and celebrate that."
Three in four Canberrans voted in favour of legalising same-sex marriage in the recent postal survey, an "emphatic" result Chief Minister Andrew Barr said gave the government licence to make Canberra more "inclusive".
By submitting your email you are agreeing to Fairfax Media's terms and conditions and privacy policy.
Asked if the number plates could make cars a target given 26 per cent of the ACT voted against marriage equality, Mr Ramsay said he had "full confidence" Canberrans would respect the rights of others.
People can apply to have their existing 'Y' series plates remade with the rainbow design, although it will take about four weeks.
The government also announced on Friday it will waive $55 certificate fee for couples married previously under the ACT's Marriage Equality (Same Sex) Act 2013 if they marry again.
Couples who previously registered a civil union under the Civil Union Act 2012 can also have their fee waived.
There are about 80 couples eligible in a move that is expected to cost the ACT government about $4400.
ACT Opposition leader Alistair Coe criticised the government's "grandstanding and expenditure of public resources".
"All Canberrans, regardless of their sexuality, deserve a government that concentrates on health, education and all the other actual responsibilities of the ACT government," Mr Coe said.
MOTORISTS in the UK are still being targeted by new DVLA email, message and text message scams in Britain and here's what to do if you are.
Criminals posing as the Driver Vehicle Licence Agency (DVLA) are still sending bogus messages to motorists, to attempt to maliciously acquire data or money from them.
These criminals are being exposed on Twitter now as motorists are savvily becoming wise to these messages.
DCI David Coleman, Deputy Director of Intelligence, Kent & Essex SCD tweeted a picture of a fake text he received.
The message read "We would like to notify you that you have an outstanding vehicle tax refund of GBP 220.50 from an overpayment, request refund dvlc.au1h.com."
The DVLA has been explicit in the past about its policy regarding contacting customers.
It replied to a customers reporting another potential phishing scam saying "we're already aware of this scam and we are investigating.
"We advise drivers that we don't send texts that contain links. Please ignore it and don't click on any link."
On its website it reiterates how it will never contact a driver via text or email.
"We're aware that some members of the public are receiving emails, texts and telephone calls claiming to be from DVLA.
"Links to a website mocked up to look like a DVLA online service are sometimes included in the message.
Number Plate Suppliers, do they have to be registered?
The short answer to the question is YES.
If you are buying a cherished plate through a registered (MIRAD) dealer who is also a registered number plate supplier (RNPS) with the DVLA then they can supply the plates for you.
Sales manager at Image Registrations Bruno Morris said if we are supplying the cherished number to the client and transferring it onto the vehicle for them then we already have established proof of ownership and identity during the transfer procedure. It saves the customer a lot of hassle by enabling us to supply the registration plates with the completed paperwork"."

Meet Carlos Anllo: The Sales Team's Go-To SME for All Things IWE, An Internal Social Platform
Carlos is a modest SME who does not take nearly as much credit for the significant business impact that his social achievements have for his team.
Carlos is very knowledgeable about various social media sites, but where he really shines is on the internal corporate social platform known as Cisco's Integrated Workforce Experience (IWE). Carlos joined Cisco in Argentina in 2008 as a Translation Validator meaning that he ensures documents being translated into Spanish align with the "Cisco voice" and company branding guidelines. However, he has also been recognized for the excellent work that he does on the IWE by allowing employees to easily interact with one another and share content in a non-conventional, effective manner.
Carlos Single-Handedly Supports the Sales Team's IWE Needs
In 2009, an IWE initiative dedicated to evangelizing its usage throughout the company was born. While most people struggled to adapt to this new internal platform, Carlos was one of the few who were able to skillfully maneuver the dark waters of this site by using his creativity and vast knowledge of computer languages and coding. Since then, he has supported the Sales team with their diverse IWE needs. Carlos has not only redesigned and built countless selling communities within the Global Platform for Sales IWE Community but also taught many on how to become more adept at using the various tools that the site has to offer.
Carlos is very passionate about using the IWE platform as it is and making the best of the platform's rather limited functionalities rather than forcing actions upon it that it doesn't support. Here's an example of one of his creations, the "Cisco Barbarians Wall of Fame" IWE page:
Despite the many known limitations of the platform, he managed to work around these and devise a clever, fun way to recognize the winners of this internal award.
Carlos's work on this social channel is not only appealing to the eye but also increases effectiveness for the work that he and others do. The many internal communities that he constructs enable effective communication amongst his team members. They are able to share relevant content and updates with one another through this channel and avoid the challenges of doing so strictly by long, endless email chains.
According to his team members, Carlos is always willing to provide impromptu, friendly support and take on IWE project requests. In the process, he has gained the respect, appreciation and close friendship of many.
Meet Our SMEs" is a new blog series designed to acquaint you with some of our behind-the-scenes Cisco SMEs (subject matter experts) who have gone above and beyond to integrate social media into their day job. In addition to introducing you to their background and areas of expertise, we have highlighted some of their social media achievements and best practices. We hope you find these SMEs' stories interesting and possibly even applicable to enhancing your own social media practice.
In an effort to keep conversations fresh, Cisco Blogs closes comments after 60 days. Please visit the Cisco Blogs hub page for the latest content.

Is the Egg Industry Lying to Canadians"
Breaking it down
Since the release of the 2019 Canadian Food Guide it seems we have been bombarded with a higher than usual occurence of T.V., radio and social media ads promoting meat, dairy and egg products; hardly surprising since the new food guide obliterates dairy as a category and heavily promotes (at the expense of animal products) plant based sources of protein and nutrient rich foods such as legumes, vegetables, whole grains and fruit. Many industry agencies are already ringing the alarm bells reporting animal agriculture is losing market shares to plant based alternatives such as in the milk segment of the dairy industry. For instance, the latest statistics from Dairy Farmers of America indicate that in 2018 the sector lost 1.1 billion dollars year over year and nearly 3000 dairy farms ceased operating in the U.S.; the same phenomenon is most likely also happening here in Canada albeit on a much smaller scale. It is now clear to many of these associations and agencies that the plant based food industry is fast becoming a clear and present threat to their operation; their members face two choices, transition their farms to offer plant based alternatives themselves or fight tooth and nail to delay or try to stop what many consider the inevitable demise of animal agriculture.
B.C. Eggs
The latest egg industry marketing campaign would seem to indicate that this particular sector is also under attack and fighting to retain market shares even if it means they...

I'm bringing The Sensuous Woman back for one night only! This show is to benefit our lovely Selene Luna. She has terrible hip problems and needs our help now. Let's get her back on her feet!
Please join us at the Renburg Theater on May 24th for an exciting evening of comedy, music and dance!
More on why we're doing this benefit show:
On March 6, 2014, burlesque star and comic, Selene Luna, found herself immobile with excruciating hip pain. The agonizing pain forced her to go to the ER where she was diagnosed with Avascular Necrosis of Femoral Head. The attending physician told Luna the only solution would be an emergency double-hip replacement. Luna decided to get a second opinion from one of the top orthopedic surgeons in the country and discovered she'd been grossly misdiagnosed. Luna has hip tendinitis and does not require surgery. Her misdiagnosis would have been an irreversible error that would have negatively affected Luna's future ability to walk and perform.
The following six weeks were an exasperating battle for proper treatment through healthcare system red tape which needlessly prolonged Luna's condition; she's finally on the road to getting physical therapy and medication. In the meantime, Luna has had to cancel two months worth of work. Unfortunately, in the entertainment business 'sick leave' is not a viable option for many artists. Luna is physically and financially devastated, unable to generate income while awaiting physical therapy and medication. Legendary comedy icon, Margaret Cho is joining forces with the burlesque and comedy community to help fellow artist in need, Selene Luna, by raising money to recoup income lost for her living expenses.

This story was posted in the Deseret News and I had to share. The man who donated his kidney, Ryan Poole, is my brother in law. I respect and love him so much for being so generous. He and Paul were friends, but to give someone one of your internal organs is just a massive gift. I am lucky to have Ryan in my life. And he and I are both lucky to have my sister Marissa as a support system in our life. She has had to go through a lot in the last few months with taking care of a new born and a man who gave up a vital organ. Anyway, enough of my thoughts, here's the story:
Actor gives gift of life to colleague

When Paul Gibbs, a 34-year-old actor and film student, found out he needed a kidney transplant, the first thing that went through his head was, "Can I still go to my callback (audition) tonight?"
While Gibbs, who has done theater since he was 14, didn't get to the audition, he did find through his two-year ordeal that there really are no people like show people — not when one of their own needs a lifesaving transplant.
Local actor Ryan Poole gave the gift of life to his former castmate, while the local theater community rallied in support.
"It speaks to the kind of person he (Gibbs) is," said Poole.
Gibbs, along with three siblings, was born with bilateral ureteral reflux and had kidney problems all his life.
"I had nine surgeries on my kidneys before I was 5," said Gibbs "For most people, it is corrected with one surgery."
In November 2007, Gibbs noticed he "had a strong tendency to get sick easily. Every four to six weeks I'd get flu-like symptoms. I'd be listless.
"I'd always lived with bad kidneys, but that had been a reality for so long that I didn't take it seriously."
Tests revealed he needed a transplant.
Doctors initially hoped Gibbs' twin brother could be the donor. "But I knew he wasn't a likely option," Gibbs said. "He'd had 17 surgeries on his intestines. His kidney was a perfect match, but it wasn't a healthy choice."
Then word of Gibbs' condition started to trickle through the theater community.
"Theater people have come out of the woodwork to help with fundraising or support," Gibbs said. "They've just made me feel like I haven't been going through this alone at any step of the way."
They organized fundraisers, and the theaters Gibbs has worked for — Off-Broadway and the Children's Theatre — also helped.
But fundraising wasn't enough — his theater friends wanted to do more.
"Suddenly they started contacting me and asking, 'Can I be tested?' I was pretty overwhelmed by the fact that they were asking to be my kidney donor," Gibbs said.
The response among the local theater community also overwhelmed the transplant clinic. Clinic staffers called Gibbs and requested he not have any more friends contact them until they were ready for more.
"Honestly, I didn't think people liked me as much as they do," he said.
According to organ and tissue donation Web site http://www.organdonor.gov/, there are nearly 60,000 people on the kidney donation waiting list. The wait can take years — 3,000 people die annually while waiting for a new organ.
Then, one day Poole, who had appeared with Gibbs in a production of "You Can't Take It With You" at Hale Centre Theatre in 2004, contacted him and said, "I know this is going to be a long-shot, but I'd like to be tested to see if we're a match."
"I was touched but didn't expect anything to come out of it," Gibbs said.
Tests proved him wrong.
"We were as good a match as if we were siblings," Poole said. "I was surprised. To look at us ... we're distinctly different people. We don't look like a match for anything, ever."
Poole said his wife and fellow actor, Marissa, was "ultra-supportive," even though she was eight months pregnant at the time of the transplant. Poole also has 7-year-old triplets from a previous marriage.
"To have these people be willing to sacrifice for me was incredibly touching and humbling," Gibbs said.
The generosity didn't stop with Poole and the theater community: It stretched beyond the stage and into the audience.
During the last two weeks of Hale's production of "Treasure Island," actors went into the lobby to collect money for the transplant.
"We've only done this twice before," said Sally Deitlein, vice president and executive producer of HCT. "And it's just amazing. People were just reaching into their purses and wallets, looking for every ounce of change. One lady wrote a check for $200.
"Our big burly pirates had tears in their eyes."
The patrons of HCT donated $17,000.
"They'll never know how big of a difference they've made in my life," Gibbs said. "To be able to get this surgery and go on and live my life — it's just a powerful example of the goodness in human nature.
"People are good, and not only are they willing to help, they're happy to help."
With Poole lined up for the transplant, Gibbs' time on dialysis was brief. "Only two months. It was physically draining. Some days too much fluid would get removed or too little and I'd have severe cramps, blurred vision and nausea," Gibbs said. "But I met some really good people. Both the medical professionals and fellow patients." Gibbs' voice changed slightly as he recalled, "Some of the people had been doing dialysis for over 10 years and aren't able to have a transplant. And they'd get so excited when they found out my transplant was coming up."
The transplant was performed Aug. 11. By Aug. 15, both men were on their way home.
"They said my kidney started working in Paul minutes after inserting," Poole said. "By all standards, it couldn't have gone better.
"People have just been remarkable — from our theater friends and patrons to the surgical team," he said. But Poole was quick to downplay his own sacrifice.
"It might be a few days in a hospital and 4 or 5 weeks convalescing. But my quality of life will not be affected," he said. "And Paul is an extraordinary guy — he's kind, funny and down-to-earth. One of the sweetest guys you'll ever want to meet."
"It's difficult to put into words," Gibbs said when asked about his donor. "Thank you for saving my life. I can never entirely repay what you've done for me. But I'll spend the rest of my life doing everything I can."
With the worst behind them, both men are home, tired, but healing and looking forward to getting back on stage.
Poole should go on about his life with no limitations. And the same can be said for Gibbs.
"One of Ryan's kidneys is better than my two ever were," Gibbs said. "I'll be able to have a remarkably normal life, and I couldn't be happier about it."
"One of Ryan's kidneys is better than my two ever were," Gibbs said. "I'll be able to have a remarkably normal life, and I couldn't be happier about it."
But he will have to take anti-rejection medications for the rest of his life. "It can be as much as rent for a two-bedroom apartment every month."
Gibbs' twin brother has set up http://www.kidney4paul.blogspot.com/ to accept donations and provide information on fundraising activities.
In the meantime, Gibbs is spending time with nieces and nephews. With his new kidney, he once again has the energy to play with them.
"I can't lift them yet. But they've been great," he said. "They've been developing their own system of hugs they can give without hurting me. Right now they're on 'soft hugs.' But they always say, 'When can we give you real hugs?'
"And I can't wait."

Home Show this weekend in Mystic
Groton - That big tent erected in the Mystic Marriott parking lot could house a revival meeting.
And, in a way, that will be its purpose this weekend when it accommodates the overflow from "Eastern Connecticut's Premier Home Show," a two-day event aimed at nothing less than reviving the local economy.
"It's going to be pretty spectacular," Tony Sheridan, president and chief executive officer of the Chamber of Commerce of Eastern Connecticut, said Thursday.
More than 175 vendors have booked the available space in and near the hotel's two ballrooms and inside the tent, and organizers expect a total of 10,000 to 15,000 people to attend Saturday and Sunday.
In a first-time collaboration, the chamber and the Builders and Remodelers Association of Eastern Connecticut are teaming up to sponsor the show, which replaces an event held in recent years at Mohegan Sun.
"We wanted to partner with a local group because that fits in with our 'buy local' program," Sheridan said. "Builders and small businesses have been really hurt in the economic downturn and we wanted to help do something about that. We've kept the focus on home construction, renovation and care, meaning landscaping, gardening and that sort of thing.
"It's all about local groups putting on a show to improve our retail economy."
Norton Wheeler, owner of the Mystic River Building Co., said the show will be more professionally oriented than some previous ones and entirely focused on home maintenance and improvement. He said the timing couldn't be better.
"At Mohegan Sun, the schedule there limited us to January, which was premature," Wheeler said. "April is perfect. That's when people are getting outside and thinking about their home."
Among the vendors commanding the most space are United Builders Supply Co., Ring's End lumber and Overhead Door Co. of Norwich, whose owner, Gary Wilensky, chairs the show's organizing committee.
"We're very encouraged" about the show's prospects for success, Wilensky said. "It's a good partnership and the Marriott is a great showcase. It's kind of hard to gauge how many will come, but over the course of the weekend, we're looking for 10,000 to 15,000 people."
He said vendors will be presenting the latest in energy efficiency and design, and will, of course, be happy to take orders.
The show also will feature "Canstruction," a display of structures built out of 15-ounce cans of food that will be donated to charity after the show. Tri-Town Foods grocery stores and Bozzuto's Inc., a Cheshire-based wholesale distributor, donated 16,000 cans, and more were collected at Eastern Savings Bank and Wireless Zone locations, according to Bence Strickland, The Day's advertising manager, who spearheaded the project.
Five teams have fashioned sculptures out of the cans in a competition that will be judged Sunday. After the event, the Gemma E. Moran United Way Labor Food Center in New London will pick up the cans, which amount to more than eight tons of food, Strickland said.
What: Eastern Connecticut's Premier Home Show
When: 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Saturday; 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday
Where: Mystic Marriott Hotel & Spa, Exit 88 of Interstate 95
Tickets: $8 for adults; kids 12 and under, free

Actress Thandie Newton was sexually exploited by an unnamed director when she was a teenager starting out in the movie business.
The "Crash" star joined thousands of people across the world on Valentine's Day to march for women's rights as part of the One Billion Rising movement, which aims to put an end to domestic violence and rape, and she reveals she had a personal reason for supporting the campaign – she was taken advantage of during early casting calls.
She tells CNN.com, "When I was a 16 year old, fresh from boarding school, going out in, you know the casting couch, I was definitely objectified to an extreme. The way I was made to feel. The way I was exploited and the kind of role and the kinds of things I was expected to do in auditions.
"One director asked me to sit with my legs apart – the camera was positioned where it could see up my skirt – to put my leg over the arm of the chair. Before I started my dialogue, (I was told to) think about the character I was supposed to be having the dialogue with and how it felt to be made love to by this person.
"I was thinking, 'This is so strange, why would I need to do that?' But this is the director, there is the casting director, (it) must be normal."
And to make matters worse, Newton later discovered the director had been showing the video to his friends: "It turned out the director… used to show that video late at night to interested parties at his house – a video of me touching myself with a camera up my skirt."
The 40-year-old beauty refused to name names during the interview.

A wave of injuries and upsets hit the second round of Wimbledon on Wednesday, taking No. 2 seed Victoria Azarenka of Belarus and No. 3 seed Maria Sharapova of Russia out of the women's competition.
Sharapova, hobbled by a hip injury, slipped once during the warmups and twice during play and required medical treatment during her 6-3, 6-4 loss to Michelle Larcher de Brito of Portugal.
Sharapova left the court for treatment in the second set of her match against Larcher de Brito, who is ranked 131st in the world. Both women are loud grunters, but some of Sharapova's shrieks might have been due to her physical discomfort.
Sharapova won the women's title at Wimbledon in 2004 but has been back to the final only once since then. She was the runner-up at the French Open a few weeks ago.
"I can't believe my eyes," said tennis great Chris Evert, now an ESPN commentator. "Maria Sharapova must be devastated."
Azarenka injured her knee during her first-round match and withdrew Wednesday before facing Flavia Pennetta of Italy
Giant-killer Steve Darcis of Belgium, who upset No. 5 Rafael Nadal in the first round, pulled out before facing Lukasz Kubot of Poland in the second round, citing an injury to his right shoulder. American John Isner tweaked his knee and retired from his second-round match with the score 1-1 against Adrian Mannarino of France.
No. 10 men's seed Marin Cilic of Croatia also had to withdraw because of knee problems which he said had bothered him during the pre-Wimbledon Queen's tournament.
Upsets also scrambled the fields. Ana Ivanovic of Serbia, seeded 12th on the women's side, was upset by Eugenie Bouchard of Canada, 6-3, 6-3, and No. 9 Caroline Wozniacki of Denmark lost to Petra Cetovska of the Czech Republic, 6-2, 6-2.

Topic: Website design tips
If you have some of the following as a part of your website design, you can be sure that visitors to your site find it annoying.
1. Background music - it is only for an internet radio or a site that sells CDs.
2. Huge font size - the kind that shouts at you. Keep in mind that no one likes being shouted at.
3. Small font size - the exact opposite of being shouted at i.e. huge font size. If, you wish to be heard, a normal tone at a reasonable volume is required.
4. Layers that overlap are 'too much in your face' message screaming. Subtle persuasion is far better than employing sheer 'brute force'.
5. Popup windows - even while these are blocked by add on tools, certain website designs continue to employ them. Why not place your important messages in a central part of your web design rather than trying to get them across with the help of irritating pop-ups.

Mumps Found In Texas ICE Facility
Texas health officials say 7 cases of mumps have been identified inside an immigration detention center in Houston. The Houston Health Department says all 7 cases were adult detainees at an ICE facility, and there's no evidence the disease was transmitted to anyone outside the facility. Houston's EMS medical director, Dr. David Persse , said since these individuals were isolated inside the facility when they were infectious, they don't anticipate these cases posing a threat to the community.

Put People First movement encourages participation in budget
To the Editor,
After advocating for meaningful public participation in the state's budget development process, the People's Budget Campaign today cautiously welcomed the Administration's announcement of two public participation hearings via Vermont Interactive Technologies (VIT) sites.
The Campaign, which is part of the Put People First movement spearheaded by the Vermont Workers' Center, stressed that a public participation process is now a legal requirement, resulting from a new provision in Vermont law. The new law, a key Campaign achievement in the 2012 legislative session, set an October 1 deadline for the Administration to design and implement a public participation process for developing the state's spending and revenue policies.
Participation from the people is crucial to ensure that people's needs are put first, rather than neglected in the drive to cut our budget. We demand a meaningful process of participation, which includes a review of unmet needs. The new legal provision requiring public participation in the budget process was passed as a budget bill amendment pushed by the People's Budget Campaign. Another provision was also added requiring the state budget to address the people's needs and advance equity and dignity among Vermont residents (Section E.100.1 of Act 162).
The two sessions will be on November 13 from 5:15-7:30 pm and November 19, from 4:45-6:45 pm. The session on the 13th will be at the following VIT Site:
Vermont Interactive Technologies
1001 College Road
Lyndon State College
PO Box 7954
Lyndonville, VT 05851-7954
Now, more than anytime in recent history, Vermonters, like most Americans, are struggling to achieve a decent standard for the quality
of their lives. With high unemployment, lack rights for the employed, difficulties with housing, child care and health care, Vermonters seem
to have nowhere to turn. However, we at the Vermont Workers Center are here to assist all Vermonters through this difficult time.
The Vermont Workers Center is a grass roots organization designed to unite all Vermonters to speak with one voice and one purpose to the powers that be. We are here to tell them what we need and what we feel is in our best interests as citizens of the Green Mountain State. As such, we have already achieved a major victory by pushing the new health care bill to getting passed into law and the new provisions in the budgeting process. However, we cannot effect such changes alone. The struggle to address the other issues that beat down society still need to be addressed. As such, we are asking every Vermonter, regardless of political and religious affiliation, to band together as Vermonters and join us in the fight to put people first. With that said, We would like you to join us at the State Budget Hearings at Vermont Interactive Technologies, So that you too may voice what your concerns about our state meeting your fundamental needs.
In 2011, the launch of the Put People First! Campaign was meant to begin to get our communities organized across issue areas so that together we will be able to fashion structural solutions to the problems in our communities. Many folks in Vermont are struggling to be able to meet their fundamental needs in order to live a life with dignity. It is often a struggle to access the healthcare one needs, find decent housing, receive affordable childcare, find a meaningful job that pays the bills, or be able to organize at the workplace, all the while our communities are working in the face of climate change for a healthy environment and livable planet.
The more and more conditions worsen, Vermont residents are beginning to realize that these are not problems that exist in isolation to one another. The common root causes of these crises are becoming quite clear to our communities. We are beginning to understand that so long as we struggle in isolation from one another we may experience victories but ultimately fall short of our goal. We must build power as a movement to fashion solutions that make our visions a reality.
The Budget Hearings are an opportunity for members of our community can assess the legislature, directly. We will be able to let them know about the issues that affect us and how we feel the budget should meet our needs on these issues. However, more importantly, we will have the opportunity to express to them what we, as citizens of Vermont, need for the betterment of our society. It is a place where we can speak with one voice and let them know directly that we want them to Put People First, above all other concerns.
Now is the time to show them that the Vermont Workers' Center, and many other social organizations are creating a space for our communities to discuss the issues we struggle to change and work together to create an inclusive vision and make action steps toward the realization of that common vision. Please join us at the Budget Hearings November 13 from 5:15-7:30 pm and November 19, from 4:45-6:45 pm.
Remember, we cannot fight inequities and injustice alone. There is great truth in the phrase "United We Stand, Divided We Fall." We look forward to seeing you there. Thank you.
Marc McCullock
Representative of the Vermont Workers Center
St. Johnsbury, VT

Wow, I hope they didn't eat anything recently if they're riding in style like THIS!
Here's a good one for just before the Friday slide, a YouTube video "They See Me Rollin' They Hatin'" shows a car's dashboard cam capturing one seriously tricked out yellow van hopin' and bopin' back and forth and partying like "it's your birthday."
The video, posted on June 5, went viral and ended up tallying well above 1 million hits.
Watch as other drivers break and swerve in fear trying to stay out of the crazy party van's way.
Man, if I caught a ride like that, I think I'd probably lose my cookies for sure. It looks more like catching a ride on choppy seas than on the road.

"A lot of human diseases are caused by multiple gene mutations that are difficult to identify," said Boeke, who is a professor of molecular biology and genetics and director of the High Throughput Biology Center at the Hopkins School of Medicine.
The yeast cell is an excellent model for this kind of study because 25 percent of human disease genes are also found in yeast, according to Boeke. Therefore, the discovery of this network of genes could help to identify mutations whose combined deleterious effects cause human diseases, including cancer and neurodegeneration, as well as aging.
"The interactions we discovered in yeast could also help researchers select the human versions of these genes suitable as targets for the development of new, more targeted and less toxic cancer therapies," Boeke said.
The goal of the Hopkins study was to identify pairs of genes that, while different, play redundant roles in governing genomic integrity in yeast cells, filling in for each other when one of the genes is mutated or deleted. Such redundancies ensure that each task in the network of biochemical reactions governing DNA stability is accomplished, Boeke noted.
Based on the data from this study, the investigators were able to separate the genes governing the stability of yeast DNA into 16 modules, or mini-pathways of genes, based on these genetic interactions, which are called synthetic fitness or lethality interactions. Synthetic lethality is a phenomenon in which two mutations that are not individually lethal cause cell death when combined. Specifically, the Hopkins team identified 4,956 interactions among 875 genes involved in DNA repair, DNA replication, the halting of replication and cell cycle progression by "checkpoints" so that damaged DNA can undergo repair, and responses to oxidative stress necessary for reducing the intracellular levels of highly reactive molecules that bind to and damage DNA.
The yeast has about 6,000 genes, of which about 1,000 are essential to survival and 5,000 are not, Boeke said. Specifically, 1,000 of the 5,000 non-essential genes are important enough so that the yeast grows slowly if any one of them is absent. And any of the 4,000 other genes can be deleted from the cell without interfering with the cell's growth.
A major goal of the Hopkins team is to determine which of the non-essential genes interact with each other, said Boeke. All such pair-wise combinations of the 5,000 non-essential genes in the yeast genome would require about 25 million tests, he added. In the current study, 74 genes were tested in pair-wise combination with the 5,000 non-essential genes, a feat approximately equivalent to 370,000 gene-pair tests.
The Hopkins team used a technology known as dSLAM (heterozygote diploid-based synthetic lethality analyzed by microarray) to look at the effects of 5,000 different double mutations on cell fitness in a single experiment. With this technology, only 5,000 tests would be required to map the 25 million pair-wise combinations, greatly speeding the work.
The dSLAM strategy is somewhat like pulling out parts of a radio at random to see what happens, Boeke said.
"With yeast, as with a radio, you might rip out part A or part B and find that the radio still works; but if you pull out both parts and the radio dies you would learn that A and B can compensate for each other's absence. The parts we're pulling out of yeast are genes, and we look to see what happens when both of the genes are pulled out."
The dSLAM technology takes advantage of DNA barcode that identifies which genes a yeast cell is missing. This is much like using a commercial barcode in a store to quickly identify items at the checkout counter. The scanner in this case is a microarray: a grid of thousands of spots on a piece of glass that holds a unique "sensor" strand of DNA that matches one of the barcodes. Machines then read the microarray to identify which of the sensors found matching barcodes that identified specific yeast cells with specific mutations. If two genes that compensated for each other are knocked out, the yeast cell dies and the microarray doesn't record that cell, Boeke noted. That means the two genes interact with each other, he said.
"This strategy for finding interacting genes will open the door to an extraordinarily rich source of new data on DNA damage, repair, and human diseases," Boeke added.
This work was supported by the National Human Genome Research Institute, a National Institutes of Health Roadmap grant, and the Whitaker Foundation.

Out with the old (desk) and in with the new…
It's quite rare indeed that the L.A. BoxCo gets to pool their talents and resources to produce a singular piece, together as a group. We've fortunately come across that opportunity with a new design for the entry desk of the Craft and Folk Art Museum across from LACMA on Wilshire. This tiny gem on Museum Row shows some really delightful exhibitions and is definitely worth a visit, especially if you've never been there.
The old desk is currently being demolished with all of its hardware to be repurposed for the future project. The new desk will be a perfect fit for the museum which promotes excellent design and craft, not to mention it will be made locally with sustainable methods.
So check back here to see the desk progress!

An Arizona carjacker who shot at police and at a TV news helicopter during a high speed chase ended the pursuit by getting out of the car and shooting himself in the head, which was broadcast live on Fox News Channel.
Police pursued the suspect, identified only as an adult male, who stole a red SUV in Phoenix after getting into an accident with another car he had been driving.
Cops were alerted to both incidents and realized the suspect in both cases shared a description. When cops began to pursue the suspect, he started shooting at police cars, said Phoenix Police spokesman Tommy Thompson.
Police then fell back and followed the car from a distance. The suspect, however, shot at the Fox News chopper that covered the chase along I-10 outside about 75 miles from the California border.
Initial reports indicated that a victim may have remained in the stolen car, but Thompson said only the suspect was involved.
Chopper video showed the vehicle zooming along Arizona's wide open highway, flashing past cars and trucks, switching lanes as it weaved through traffic, at times speeding along the shoulder of the road.
The camera from the chopper captured the moment the chase ended with the man stumbling out of a red SUV into a grassy area. He reached into his waistband and pulled a handgun. He then shot himself in the head.
Police said the suspect died at the scene. No civilians or police were wounded in the pursuit.
Fox cut away from the shot soon after the man shot himself and went to commercial break.
Following the break anchor Shepard Smith apologized for airing the shooting. He said the feed was on a five second delay, but they failed to cut it off in time.
"We really messed up and we're all very sorry," he said. "That didn't belong on TV... I personally apologize to you that it happened."
"It's insensitive and it's wrong," he said of airing the shooting.
Fox later issued a statement, which read: "We took every precaution to avoid any such live incident by putting the helicopter pictures on a five second delay. Unfortunately, this mistake was the result of a severe human error and we apologize for what viewers ultimately saw on the screen."

The present paper looks into the situational analysis of weavers of Banarasi saree, Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh. The life of weavers is characterized by abject poverty, chronic malnutrition, varied health hazards and even hunger deaths and suicides. In-put cost is unbearable for many and profit is taken by middlemen. Globalization has severely affected economically vulnerable small weavers pushing them below poverty line. State machinery is apathetic and whatever schemes and programmes exist, fail to do any good to weavers who are battling hard to keep this one of the finest legacies of Indian culture alive. Situation of women and children is worse. Women are engaged in mundane work of thread-cutting, zari-filling and the like and are paid merely Rs.10-15 per day for 12-16 hours of work. Children are denied schooling to speed up saree-production. Suggestive interventions are highlighted in the paper.

When will National be sending in officials to arrest Remuera Housewives?
$23 million a year in welfare fraud. $140million per year in tax avoidance. If we are arresting the partners of welfare fraud, when are we throwing the rich housewifes into jail for knowing hubby is hiding his wealth?
We won't be doing that will we because this latest piece of bennie bashing crap isn't about solving problems, it's about distracting the voting population from another bad week for the Government.
Throwing beneficiaries into John Key's brand spanking new private prisons where they will be forced to work 40 hours per week is one way to lower the unemployment rate, but so would forced exile from NZ for every solo mother. The rules around when a boyfriend becomes a 'partner' which then lower the amount of welfare they can claim seems draconian in the extreme when you consider it's a year inside or a $5000 fine now pending if they catch beneficiaries out.
The ever brilliant Gordon Campbell explains in painful detail why Government overpayments and white collar crime are far larger issues...
Other evidence confirms that tax avoidance and departmental error are far bigger problems. The Standard did the sums a year or two ago and came up with actual fraud of $22 million, overpayments by the department of $195 million, and white collar fraud of $172 million. That makes it pretty clear where the real problems lie. Rather than set up special units on welfare fraud, Work and Income would be far better advised to sort out their own overpayment issues, and begin to address the unknown extent of underpayment – where people do not know of their entitlements, are not advised of their entitlements by Work and Income, and are consequently being ripped off by the state.
You know whenever this Government are having a bad week and need a diversion the moment they start dog whistling welfare reform and the sleepy hobbits buy the spin hook line and sinker.
Seeing as one of the ways officials will be able to expose a relationship is by dawn raids to see who is sleeping where in welfare homes, I'm astounded once again at how a nation that screamed Nanny State over the repeal of section 59 doesn't blink an eyelid at an Orwellian Government if they are invading the homes of the poor.

Hardy helps O's down Royals
Baltimore, MD – J.J. Hardy hit a two-run home run to lead the Baltimore Orioles in a 5-3 win over the Kansas City Royals in the second of three from Camden Yards.
Manny Machado also drove in a run while Chris Tillman (3-1) gave up three runs on five hits with three walks and two strikeouts over six innings for the Orioles, who have won four straight.
"He had a really good tempo tonight and didn't walk too any people," said Baltimore manager Buck Showalter. "When teams get a lot of walks they usually take advantage of it and that didn't happen."
Mike Moustakas went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run while Alex Gordon added a solo shot for the Royals, who have dropped their past three. Luis Mendoza (0-2) gave up five runs -- three earned -- on five hits with three walks in six innings to take the loss.
Baltimore struck in the second inning as Matt Wieters singled to start the inning and Hardy followed with his sixth homer of the season, a shot to left, for a 2-0 lead.
The Royals got a run back in the fifth on Gordon's fifth homer of the year, but the Orioles padded their advantage in the bottom of the frame.
Chris Dickerson doubled to start the frame and Nate McLouth followed with a grounder to short that saw Alcides Escobar try to get Dickerson at third. His throw, though, hit Dickerson and everyone was safe. After McLouth stole second, Machado singled home Dickerson and McLouth was able to cross the plate off a bad throw home from Escobar during a Machado steal of second base. A wild pitch then scored Machado for a 5-1 advantage.
"The key to that inning is that if Escobar goes to first for the easy out they probably just score the one run," said Kansas City manager Ned Yost.
The Royals went deep again in the sixth, this time a two-run shot from Moustakas with Lorenzo Cain on base, to make it a 5-3 game.
Troy Patton worked a 1-2-3 seventh for Baltimore, Darren O'Day and Brian Matusz kept the Royals off the board in the eighth, while Jim Johnson held the lead in the ninth for his 13th save of the season.
Game Notes
Tillman is now 9-8 in 27 career starts in Baltimore ... Mendoza fell to 2-2 in four games against Baltimore ... Jeremy Guthrie pitches for Kansas City in the finale on Thursday, while Freddy Garcia takes the mound for Baltimore.

In short: Equifax is one of the companies that determines your "Credit Score". Every single loan you've ever taken out in the USA has been tracked by Equifax. And they've been hacked. An estimated 143 Million Americans are tracked by Equifax, aka literally fucking everybody. This is the most serious hack I can think of, there have been larger hacks (such as Yahoo), but those were just usenames / passwords. Equifax seems to have lost everybody's social security numbers, addresses, and so forth.
https://investor.equifax.com/news-and-e ... -213000628
The information accessed primarily includes names, Social Security numbers, birth dates, addresses and, in some instances, driver's license numbers. In addition, credit card numbers for approximately 209,000 U.S. consumers, and certain dispute documents with personal identifying information for approximately 182,000 U.S. consumers, were accessed. As part of its investigation of this application vulnerability, Equifax also identified unauthorized access to limited personal information for certain UK and Canadian residents. Equifax will work with UK and Canadian regulators to determine appropriate next steps. The company has found no evidence that personal information of consumers in any other country has been impacted.
Apparently, checking the Equifax page to see if you're affected has a little disclaimer in the corner: https://twitter.com/zackwhittaker/statu ... 4331142144
Those jackasses. Well, fuck.
Equifax expects only 182,000 are affected, but how much faith should we place on that? If you're in that pile of 182-thousand, then you're fucked. All your information is now out there. And Equifax, as one of the "Credit Score" gatekeepers, has all of our information anyway. So its not like we all aren't at risk here from their incompetence.
Also, the Equifax page is an advertisement for their credit monitoring service. And signing up for it waives your right to a class action lawsuit.
So Equifax is a bunch of jackholes. They're trying to spin this into their advantage. For cripes...
