Local councillors are working with local police and staff at May Bank Infants school to ensure the safety of children and pedestrians at school pickup and drop off times. This follows reports of dangerous parking and congestion that are putting lives at risk.
Councillor Simon Tagg said: "We have asked the police to be more proactive in warning drivers about illegal and dangerous parking on Basford Park Road and issue fines if appropriate. We have also arranged for the school to purchase high profile warning signs asking drivers to think carefully about the safety of children and other road users."
This follows similar action outside Langdale Primary School in the Westlands.
Newcastle Borough Council's ruling 'Cabinet' will meet next week to decide the fate of the green space by Sandy Lane roundabout. This follows the recent 'consultation' in which hundreds of local people registered their objections to the sale for development of this important green space.
Newcastle Borough Council has received an application to extension the opening hours of the Cricketers Arms Pub, May Bank to allow an additional half hour 'drinking up' time. This does not extend the permitted hours for the sale of alcohol.
The deadline for representations is 5pm on 28th October 2014. Full details of the application can be viewed by appointment at the Civic Offices (Tel: 717717) or via the website: www.newcastle-staffs.gov.uk.
May Bank Councillor Simon Tagg said: "Since the council revealed its plans in January hundreds of local people have signed a petition calling for the land to be saved as public open space. Now the council have decided to press ahead with the sale. We urge local residents to use the 'consultation' period to make their views know to council leaders. The council has only inform 13 households of the 'consultation'. So Ian Matthews, John Tagg and I as local councillors have distributed leaflets in the area to make people aware."
1, The green space by sandy Lane Roundabout is well used by local people for recreation and dog walking.
2, It currently soaks up rain water that would otherwise flood onto the roundabout. Up to 10 houses with associated driveway and roadways would make the rain water run-off worse.
3, Sandy Lane roundabout is already very busy with traffic and there are significant parking problem in the area - houses on the green space will make the situation worse.
4, It will be very difficult to access any new properties safely because of the proximity to the busy roundabout.
5, This green space has not been developed previously. Maps dating back 200 years indicate that it has been green open space during that time.
6, It forms the ancient boundary between Wolstanton Parish and Newcastle Borough.
7, This part of The Brampton has becoming increasingly built up in recent years. This is the last green-field outside of Brampton Park.
8. The green space is part of The Brampton Conservation Area.
9, The council wish to sell the green space to raise money and create more housing. Yet they have vacant 'brown-field' sites all over the borough notably the Knutton Recreation Centre,. They are currently refusing to bring those forward for development -why?
Fellow May Bank Councillor Ian Matthews said: "The council have recently withdraw proposals to sell green space elsewhere in the borough when they have come up against strong opposition. So it is important that objections are sent in"
Newcastle Borough Council has received a planning application from Sutton and Wilkinson Architects Ltd to redevelop the Homestead/May Place Day Centre, May Place, Brampton Road, May Bank.
They propose to build a new 65 apartment Extra Care scheme on the site. Public notices have been in place on the site since the beginning of July. Local residents have until 25th July to put in views or objections on the proposed redevelopment.
May Bank Councillor Simon Tagg said: "We urge residents that have views and concerns to make then known to Newcastle Borough Council before the deadline. There are already concerns about the size and scale of the plans and an issue relating to the future status of May Place - which is currently an un adopted road.
Bringing the site back into use as an extra care development is generally welcomed but we must ensure that it is in keeping with the surrounding area which is on the edge of the Brampton Conservation Area."
The plans can be viewed & comments made by visiting the council's website: www.newcastle-staffs.gov.uk (search application number: 14/00476/FUL) or by visiting the Guildhall in Newcastle town centre during office hours.
Views or objections can be forwarded in writing to: The Head of Regeneration and Planning, Civic Offices Newcastle. ST5 2AG (please quote the application number).
The proposals will come before the Planning Committee in the Autumn.
Road safety measures are to be finally introduced on the Gallowstree Lane roundabout in Thistleberry. Staffordshire County Council is to invest £120,000 in improving safety following the expansion of the roundabout in 2009/10 to meet future development plans for the university.
Although pedestrian facilities were provided at the time, school children are choosing to cross Keele Bank close to the roundabout, at a location where there is no crossing. The county council asked for the views of residents and businesses and have now agreed an action plan.
Local county councillor Simon Tagg who has campaigned for further improvements said he was delighted the council was now acting on recommendations from residents.
Works is expected to start in April, on a date to be confirmed.
Council Tax not just frozen, but actually reduced!
Simon Tagg and colleagues running Staffordshire County Council have decided to reduce your Council Tax this year. For the past two years they have frozen Council Tax, but from April there will a small, but symbolic reduction of -0.1%. This means that your County Council Tax is now the lowest in the country.
Councillor Simon Tagg said: "We have led moves to cut out waste and have reviewed every area of the Council to ensure value for money. This has enabled us to reduce Council Tax for the first time".
All local authorities are facing an unprecedented squeeze on their budget because of the state in which Gordon Brown and the disastrous Labour Party left the nation's finances in 2010. Despite this, the County Council will maintain investment in crucial frontline services.
Landfill company told 'Clean up your act'!
Following long standing complaints from local residents, the company that runs Walley's Quarry Landfill has at long last been ordered to tackle smells and odours.
Large parts of Newcastle have been plagued by foul smelling odours, but now the Environment Agency (EA) have given Lafarge Aggregates 3 months to resolve the issue.
Residents are being asked to give their views on road safety proposals for a busy Newcastle Road.
Staffordshire County Council is planning to install a traffic-light controlled crossing and improve cycling facilities following the expansion of Gallowstree Roundabout. Although pedestrian access was improved at the time, school children attending Newcastle Community High School, often cross by the roundabout, where there is no crossing.
Local county councillor, Simon Tagg, who has campaigned for the £120,000 improvements, encouraged people to visit the website and share their views.
The drawings and printed copies of the questionnaire are also available in Newcastle Library. The closing date for comments is January 15th.
Staffordshire County Council's Cabinet has approved an innovative and ambitious plan to set up a new independent joint venture independent company with Capita as a financial partner.
Working together, the county council and Capita will support Staffordshire's young people to have the best education possible by safeguarding Staffordshire's school support services and 1,000s of jobs for the future.
The partnership would have its headquarters in Staffordshire and will see a joint venture organisation providing an extensive end to end package of services to schools ranging from catering and ground maintenance, to school improvement and performing arts.
Following concerns in the local community, officers at Staffordshire County Council have confirmed that there are no plans to sell the Seabridge Centre for housing or any other use.
The County Council are in fact in the process of bringing additional services to be based at the centre for at least the next 3 years. The Seabridge Centre is the main centre for Education and Learning support services in Newcastle. Because of this here are no plans to close or sell the Seabridge Centre at this time.
"Any development of the Seabridge Centre for housing in the future would have a detrimental affect on the properties in Ash Way, BlueBell Drive and potentially Roe Lane, because of increased traffic to and from any new housing development.
A safer crossing point is to be installed on Gallowstree Lane roundabout in Thistleberry to improve road safety for cyclists and pedestrians on busy Keele Road.
Staffordshire County Council is planning to install a traffic-light controlled crossing and improve cycling facilities following the expansion of the roundabout. Although pedestrian access was improved at the time, school children attending Newcastle Community High School, often cross by the roundabout, where there is no crossing.
As part of the scheme, which is expected to costs around £120,000 and is being partly funded by the North Staffordshire Sustainable Transport Fund, residents will have their chance to have a say on the proposals. It is hoped the options will be publicised before Christmas – with work starting on site in the New Year.
Campaigners have won their fight for a bus service to be returned to their neighbourhood. The number 17 service will be back in Basford and May Bank after bus company First performed a U-turn over its decision to axe the route.
Hundreds of residents signed a petition against the decision, which left passengers without public transport to the city centre. Now the service is expected to be running again in about three weeks time. First Bus general manager, Peter Walch, said: "We are not arrogant and we will change our minds over a decision. There has been a lot of public requests to return the route. I have always said if people are unhappy then I will listen to what they have to say. We feel it is the sensible thing to reinstate it as the public want it back."
First originally said the change was for 'commercial reasons', in order to generate more business from the busy Wolstanton Retail Park. Removing the service would have left users with a walk into May Bank or the outskirts of Basford to catch an alternative bus. In response, Wardle Transport ran a similar route to pick up some of the slack.
Mr Walch said although the service will be returned, the firm would continue to focus on passengers travelling to the retail park. He added: "We will have to look at our network in the area and we will review that. We are mindful that people do want to get there. The local authorities have supported our move to bring back the service, so it should now take about three weeks to get it running again."
The campaign to rescue the service saw about 250 people sign a petition objecting to First's plans. Councillor Simon Tagg, who represents May Bank, Basford and The Brampton on Newcastle Borough Council, launched the petition after receiving complaints.
He said: "We put the petition to them about three weeks ago. It is good that First have listened and a lot of people will be pleased that it's coming back. It's really good news. There were no other bus routes that went down Basford Park Road. People in the area were cut off."
Maureen Foy, of May Bank, who backed the campaign to save the service, said: "When I worked in Hanley I would regularly use it to get to the city centre. I felt for the people who do rely on it to get to and from work. The bus was always busy and well used. It's good news that it is coming back."
The problem of smell and foul odours from Walleys Quarry landfill site continue. Large parts of Newcastle including the Westlands, Thstleberry and the town centre are affected. The problem is worse for those residents that live near to the landfill.
Councillor Simon Tagg said: " I had a meeting with site managers, where I raised complaints from residents that I have received. The Environment Agency attended the meeting and it is they that have the powers to take action, without their action the landfill site owner can carry on operating.
Newcastle Borough Council's Environmental Team Manager Darren Walters has been tasked with mapping complaints to build a picture of the problem. If you smell any foul odours please email: darren.walters@newcastle-staffs.gov.uk or call 717717 and ask for Mr Walters.
Councillor Simon Tagg is leading a campaign to reinstate a local bus service. The No. 17 bus operated by First Bus will no longer be serving Basford Park Road or stopping at the Queens Pub on Basford Bank. This will leave many residents in Basford without a regular service to Hanley and Wolstanton.
Radical new proposals aimed at revolutionising adult social care have been unveiled. Paying more than the minimum wage to staff, publicly naming poor care organisations, promoting the status of carers and professionalising the caring industry are outlined as part of a two-year review.
The trail-blazing measures are detailed in the "A Revolution in Care Quality" a Staffordshire Green Paper from the county council – which in April formed the UK's largest integration of local authority and NHS care services.
With the 2011 Census showing that people are living longer and one in six are now aged over 65, the council says the UK must prepare to cope with the growing demands on care services.
Residents are being urged to get involved with one of the largest consultation programmes ever undertaken in Newcastle-under-Lyme.
Newcastle Borough Council are about to begin a process which will help to develop proposals for how publicly owned and also private land throughout the borough is used in future.
Over an eight week period - beginning on Monday, 6 August - there will be nine public meetings, manned and static exhibitions, discussion with the borough's E-Panel and other key stakeholders as well as presentations and briefings as the process of developing a Site Allocations and Policies Local Plan gets under way.
The public have the opportunity to make their voices heard on whether sites across the borough should be identified for housing, employment, leisure or retail purposes.
During the 20 years prior to 2006, around 8,000 new homes were built in the borough. The Council say 5,700 need to be built between 2006 and 2026.
Finding suitable sites for housing is a key part of the Site Allocations and Policies Local Plan which the Labour-run Borough Council wants to have in place by September 2014.
Hundreds of residents in Westlands and Thistleberry have responded to a local survey organised by Councillor Simon Tagg. Simon said: "I would like to thank all those that have responded so far to my summer survey. I am currently working through the many issues that have been raised, I will be writing back to everyone in due course.
The Residents Survey leaflet is due to be delivered in May Bank, Basford and The Brampton in the next few weeks.
An historic site which has undergone careful restoration is to be officially unveiled. Archaeologists have painstakingly uncovered remnants of a medieval castle mound in Queen Elizabeth Park, Poolfields, Newcastle.
They have also unearthed buried stone walls on the corner of Silverdale Road and John O'Gaunt's Road. The work, which will be unveiled tomorrow, is part of a £88,000 initiative funded by £50,000 from the Heritage Lottery Fund and contributions from developers. Steps include installing a viewing platform, illustrated information panels, and a new entrance gate. A footpath has also been improved as part of the heritage efforts.
The castle was built in the 12th century to fend off attacks from the Welsh borders, although only the mound remains today. It was the inspiration for the town of Newcastle's name.
Peter Stepien, Newcastle Borough Council's landscape officer, said: "This has been a very sensitive scheme to preserve what remains of the landmark and to promote its existence to residents and visitors."
The opening ceremony takes place at 10.30am. An exhibition will also feature information about the project, along with drawings, poems and stories created by local schoolchildren.
Residents are being invited to have their say at a presentation next week on a proposal to convert a disused care home into a development of almost 40 homes which will include affordable properties.
Taylor Wimpey is looking at submitting a detailed planning application to Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council in August, for consideration by its planning committee in the autumn.
In the meantime, the developer is undertaking a detailed consultation process with the local community to ensure people's views are taken into consideration as the proposals take shape.
It is staging an exhibition next Tuesday July 17, between 2pm and 7.45pm, at the Chancellor's Foyer, Keele Conference and Events centre at Keele University, where it will outline its plans and listen to views from residents.
If planning consent for the scheme is granted, special care will be taken by the developer to retain a number of significant features on the site and plans for the development will also include adequate parking provision for residents. The architectural design of the new homes will also be in keeping with the existing character of this attractive residential area.
As an active member of the Considerate Constructors Scheme, Taylor Wimpey will make it a priority to ensure movement of heavy goods and delivery vehicles will take place during specific hours to ensure minimal disruption to local people and businesses. The housebuilder will also work closely with the local highways authority to ensure safe traffic management in Keele Road during construction.
Simon Tagg is pleased to support The Sentinel's Save Our Staffords petition, which calls for the 300-year link between Staffordshire and the Army to be continued.
Simon Tagg said: "Regiments come and go and the size of the army goes up and down according to threats to the nations security - but the historic names and traditions should be preserved and carried through this new reorganisation of the Mercian Regiment and keeping alive a 300-year link with Staffordshire.
Community Centres across the Borough are facing an uncertain future as Newcastle's new Labour controlled Borough council looks to bring in damaging cuts.
They have called for a review of our well used Community assets including Whitfield Community Centre, which covers the Westlands and Marsh Hall Community Centre which covers May Bank.
"Labour are trying to blame a 'difficult financial situation'. However, the Borough Council has been dealing with a continual squeeze on its finances since 2006.
Local Councillor Simon Tagg has ordered a review of road safety on busy local roads in the Westlands and Thistleberry. Conservative-run Staffordshire County Council will carry out a safety study to assess speeding problems and consider measures to improve pedestrian safety.
Action will focus on the busy roundabout at the junction of Dartmouth Avenue / Sneyd Avenue and Whitmore Road.
Simon Tagg said: "Following complaints about speeding cars on the approaches to the roundabout on Whitmore Road, I requested that County Council Highways look into the issue as a priority. They should report back later in the year.

Mount Whitney Fish Hatchery, near Independence, always reminded me of a medieval castle. Photo by Kathy Callan.
I contacted thousands of hunters and anglers during those unforgettable adventures and uncovered dozens of fish and wildlife violations. What I remember most, however, was the breathtaking Eastern Sierra scenery that captured my imagination and has remained in my thoughts all these years.

How could I forget majestic Mount Whitney looming over Lone Pine? As I headed north on Highway 395 for each patrol assignment, this sentinel of the Sierras signaled that I was nearing my destination.
Crowley Lake is still a favorite trout-fishing destination, but not nearly as crowded as it was back in the 1970s. Photo by author.
Just outside of Independence, I would come to historic Mount Whitney Fish Hatchery and often remarked that this man-made landmark could easily pass for a medieval castle. I learned that since its construction in 1917, the hatchery had been responsible for propagating California's state fish, the golden trout, and planting it in High Sierra lakes.

Seeing picturesque Convict Lake while on assignment in the Eastern Sierra reminded me of a fishing trip my father and Uncle Ralph had taken in 1956. After camping on the shores of the lake for three days, my father returned to regale his eight-year-old son with tales of trophy brown trout longer than a grown-man's arm.

Snow-covered peaks, sparkling streams, and trout-filled lakes with names like June, Grant, Lundy, and Virginia dominated the landscape as I would continue north on Highway 395.

Reaching Bridgeport, I marveled at the immensity of Big Meadow and couldn't help noticing the Mono County Courthouse as I drove through town. Built in 1880, the historic building was made famous by a 1947 Robert Mitchum movie titled Out of the Past. A few days later, I found myself sitting in the court's witness chair, testifying against two men who had taken an obscene overlimit of grayling in nearby Lobdell Lake.

This past April, long after I'd retired, Kathy and I had a chance to relive some of my adventures in the Eastern Sierra and create some new ones of our own: The Outdoor Writers Association of California (OWAC) held its spring conference in Bishop. On the second day of the conference, attendees spread to the wind in an effort to learn everything we could about this outdoor wonderland.

Several members of our group decided to try their luck finding the elusive Sierra Nevada bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis sierra). Listed as endangered by the federal government and the State of California, this iconic subspecies once roamed much of the Sierra. By 1995, population estimates indicated that fewer than one hundred animals remained, their decline attributed largely to contact with domestic sheep (disease) and predation. Today, due to the tireless efforts of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service—guided by the Sierra Nevada Bighorn Sheep Recovery Plan—Sierra Nevada bighorn numbers are estimated to be over 500.

While others searched for bighorns, Kathy and I had something else in mind. Thanks to Tawni Thomson and the Bishop Area Chamber of Commerce, we were treated to a guided tour of one of the U.S. Bureau of Land Management's most sacred treasures, Fish Slough. Lying in a transition zone between the Mojave Desert and the Great Basin, Fish Slough is a 36,000-acre "Area of Critical Environmental Concern" in a prehistoric land of wetlands, desert sands, and odd-shaped volcanic rocks—just a ten minutes' drive from Bishop.

Our guides for the day were outdoor photographer Ron Oriti and his vivacious wife, Barbara. Ron and Barbara began our tour by showing us dozens of wildlife photographs they had taken in the immediate area around Bishop. I was amazed by the number of raptor species that visit the area during different times of the year.

"There's always something to see," said Barbara. I noticed that Ron's camera and 500 mm lens rested in his lap as he drove, always at the ready should an interesting bird, rare reptile, or colorful dragonfly suddenly appear. Due to cool temperatures and gale-force winds, most of the area's wildlife was in hiding, but endless wildflower displays and the fascinating tablelands kept our camera shutters popping throughout the day.

So enamored were Kathy and I with the area that we returned to Bishop two months later and continued our adventure. Our first stop was Fish Slough. With warmer temperatures and no wind at all, we experienced this remarkable area under more favorable conditions. Along the way, we spotted a variety of reptiles, numerous bird species, and even a desert pupfish.

The next morning, Kathy and I headed for the high country. Lundy Canyon was our first destination, where ambitious beavers had tamed raging Mill Creek, turning it to a series of reflection pools peacefully flowing into Lundy Lake. While oohing and aahing at the waterfalls and the many wildflowers that grew along the trail, we came across a wonderful little rubber boa, which we photographed and relocated to a safe place away from foot traffic.

"When will that be?" said Kathy, eager to return.

Poor Dr. Fauci :(
Why spend money on virus research, when you can simply steal the results from other nations?
While the first is just a typical and well-known asshole move, to not do anything to save the people of one's own nation, the second is a personal feud between Trump and Fauci:
Rep. Marc Veasey (D-Texas) asked Fauci why the NIH abruptly canceled funding for the project, which specifically worked to understand the risk of bat coronaviruses jumping to humans and causing devastating disease.
Fauci responded to Veasey saying: "It was cancelled because the NIH was told to cancel it."
"And why were they told to cancel it?" Veasey pressed.
"I don't know the reason, but we were told to cancel it," Fauci said.
Previous Friendship is Magic?
Next Politicians are Stupid, aren't They?
leendadll says:
Wasn't this one of dotatd's first moves in office… ending the pandemic research team? Or is it a new one? Hard to keep up with that a-hole's impulse control issues.
Orca Flotta says:
I, too, thought Trump had sacked Fauci already. But probably only received gag order .:/ Doing your job well, being honest in public … bad for a carreer in white house.
Everyone thought Fauci was going to be fired a few weeks ago after he contradicted something the orange lunatic said. But someone with influence must have stopped it because Fauci was "just" kept off tv for a couple weeks.
Which proves he was right and orange utan was wrong, no?
The insecure Cheeto is never right about anything!
That's why he has to resort to shut other, better, people up.
Scary to know he'll probably be re-elected.
The Russians, Chinese and every other thinking non-American on the planet hopes he's gonna be re-elected. Not only for the tremendous entertainment value – which is just the best in the world – but we're super thankful you didn't elect Hilary into office. With her we'd all be dead by now and our pretty planet just a piece of molten lava and charcoal tumbling around sol.
Trump we can deal with. Dangle a carrot in front of his nose and he'll do everything for you. And his economic sanctions are hurting America more than the envisioned enemies. Russia got stronger with the sanctions in place and are by now a 100% self-contained economy. And with the sanctions all the enemies of the USA are more friendly among each other, helping each others out, getting closer, creating new unions, more trade contracts, a new silk road, new technologies and tech standards and slowly getting more and more countries to abandon the almighty dollar as international currency.
Good times. All thx to the Donald! 🙂
Yes, he's been wonderful about eliminating any thought of the US being a world leader to everyone but his rabid fan base!
Oh, you would be surprised about how many people don't know shit about that. For 90% of Europeans and Asians and above all, Africans, America is still the absolute Numero Uno. And the World Police. No competition, no questions asked. Everybody wants to live there!
It's clear as glass: Saddam has toppled the WTC and was using WMDs, and Assad's bombing his own people with gas, so America had the moral obligation to intervene. Right?
China virtually owns the US. We're $1Trillion in debt to them and they've bought tons of land, esp in the most desirable areas (Silicon Valley and such). But, of course, most Americans don't know that.

CALUMET — After coming up short last season in their quest to repeat as regional champions, the Calumet Copper Kings hockey returns arguably the deepest team in the area as they prepare to make another run at the state title that eluded them two years ago. After a quick rebuild last season, the Copper Kings are ready to enter 2018-19 as one of the top teams in Division 3.
"Last year we had a little bit of a reloading year," said Copper Kings coach Dan Giachino. "We had a very young squad last year, and we took some lumps during the early part of the season. The group really improved as the season progressed.
The competition for ice time is high among this group of 15 returning players who have The last year or two together.
Since he took over the Copper Kings, Giachino has been working to get his players to understand that they have practice as hard as they want to play. Last season, that lesson started to click for several of his players.
"It's just a matter of pushing each other," he said. "These kids have known each other at least a year, some two (or) three years. They know how to get the best out of each other.
Calumet's look to bring another year of experience to their blue line this season with all six defenseman as upperclassman. They are led by senior Josh Vandenburg, who is in his third season with the Copper Kings, along with juniors Lincoln Beiring, Nick Djerf and Hunter Rowe who gained experience last season. Senior Landon Johnson and junior Cam Kauppinen also found their way into the lineup last season.
"We had a very young defensive core last year," said Giachino. "We had four our five sophomores on our defense last year. All (of) those guys were able to get a year of experience under their belt.
Offensively, Giachino and his team are in their second week of practice, and that gives them a chance to work out some line combinations before facing Hancock this weekend. The offense is deep, especially with senior Brent Loukus and Sam Erkkila back to drive the attack.
Loukus, who scored 21 goals and 60 points and Erkkila, who had a team-high 28 goals and 54 points, are players that Giachino hopes to see step up into real leadership roles to set examples for the younger players on the team.
Both have also been key cogs of Team Copper Country's back-to-back national titles, so they have a penchant for playing well in big games.
Two sophomores will fight for more ice time this year. Dean Loukus had a strong rookie year with 16 goals and 44 points. Tanner Rowe had nine goals and 31 points, gaining steam in the second half of the season, where he scored three goals and put up 19 points in 15 games.
Juniors Scott Loukus, Gabe Coppo, and Alex Mattila also saw a lot of playing time last year. Senior Rylan Anderson adds even more depth and has a knack for scoring timely goals.
Junior goaltender Alex Studebaker brought consistency to the net for the Copper Kings when then-senior Nick Voelker struggled. This year, the net belongs to Studebaker, who has played well against tough competition, defeating Rochester United and Marquette last season while holding the Bloomfield Hills-Cranbrook-Kingswood Cranes to just two goals in a 2-1 loss.
Junior Sam Kiiskila will keep push him for playing time.
Calumet opens their season with the Copper Island Classic series over Thanksgiving weekend against Hancock. Giachino is excited to get a shot at the Bulldogs after they were the team that eliminated the Copper Kings in the regional title game.
The Copper Kings will then travel to face the Cranes for a two-game series before returning to the U.P. to play Marquette. They will host Utica Eisenhower before facing the Houghton Gremlins in back-to-back games at the Dee Stadium and then at the MacInnes Student Ice Arena in the second game of the MacInnes Holiday Classic.
Novi, Brighton and Brother Rice all come to Calumet in January before University of Detroit-Jesuit come to two for a two-game series.
The Copper Kings see Hancock, Houghton and Marquette over an eight-game stretch to close out the regular season.

Q: Effects of Black fields in POJO when creating a JSON using Gson I was having a play around with converting JSON strings to and from POJOs. And I wondered whether it would be best have a new class definition for different types of json. As I assumed that having google gson having to parse null fields would slow it down.(not noticeably, but still. I thought it was worth the experiment and post here.) For example logging a client in might be.
public class CustomJSON {
    private String name;

    public String getName() { return name; }
    public void setName(String name) { this.name = name; }
}

But I could have other things to recieve from the client such as. favourite color, food ect.
public class CommonJSON {
    private String name;
    private String food;
    private String music;

    //getters and setters.
}

So I ran the test.
CustomJson is the same as above and with CommonJSON I added 50 other null fields that would be unused a to ax.
public class CommonJSON {
    private String name;
    private String a;
          ...
    private String ax;

    //getters and setters.
}

My main method for running the test is as follows.
public static void main(String[] args) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub

        String theJSON = "";

        int passes = 100;
        long start;
        long finish;
        long exeTime;

        Gson gson = new Gson();

        //custom JSON
        start = System.nanoTime();
        for(int i=0;i<passes;i++)
        {
            CustomJSON custom = new CustomJSON();
            custom.setName("StackOverFlow");
            theJSON = gson.toJson(custom);
        }
        finish = System.nanoTime();
        System.out.println(theJSON);
        exeTime = finish-start;
        System.out.println("Custom JSON \n\t>\t "+(exeTime)+" Nano seconds");
        System.out.println(" \t>\t "+Math.round((exeTime)/1000000.0)+" Micro seconds\n");

    //common JSON
    start= System.nanoTime();
    for(int i=0;i<passes;i++)
    {
        CommonJSON toClientJSONd = new CommonJSON();
        toClientJSONd.setName("StackOverFlow");
        theJSON = gson.toJson(toClientJSONd);
    }
    finish = System.nanoTime();
    System.out.println(theJSON);
    exeTime = finish-start;
    System.out.println("Common JSON \n\t>\t "+(exeTime)+" Nano seconds");
    System.out.println(" \t>\t "+Math.round((exeTime)/1000000.0)+" Micro seconds");

}

The results are not as I expected. With 100 passes the common class finishes 10ms faster on my machine. If I increase the number of passes the common class eventually starts to lag behind.
What makes the common class faster to start of with?
Should I worry about this in my code or just use one class for a common class for all jsons?
I can provide full source and an eclipse project if anyone would like to run it.

A: You seem to be experiencing the effects of the JVM warming up. See this SO post for more info.

A: To answer the other part of my question. For Simple JSON objects its neater to use the JsonObject from the GSON lib and add properties.
JsonObject json = new JsonObject();
json.addProperty("myBool", false);

Alien on KIC 8462852 feels pretty stupid for leaving starships out where Earth could see
Scientists have stated that they believe the white bits to be stars.
Recent discoveries of objects in a distant star system that could potentially be structures created by intelligent life forms have whipped global scientific communities into a frenzy. It is becoming increasingly likely that humans are just years away from the public announcement that they are not alone in the universe.
Meanwhile, speaking to us from a dingy hotel in the star system KIC 8462852, Rto'sohe'vhin is feeling like the biggest dunce ever.
"They told me a million times, they really did," he explained to us again, referring to his superiors at his former company, which roughly translates to Sunny Times Solar Irrigation Group. He was let go after leadership became aware of his mistake, which led humans to suspect the presence of extraterrestrial life in the KIC system. "They said, don't leave these monolithic power ships out overnight. The earthies might see." (Earthies appear to be the word his race uses to refer to humans. It is a term which appears to signify neither derision nor endearment.)
Advanced societies across the universe have apparently gone to great lengths to avoid discovery by the inhabitants of Earth, and our research leads us to believe that eluding detection is actually a relatively elementary task. To be the first race discovered by humans is, frankly, pretty embarrassing.
"We're all worried about the earthies. As soon as they find another planet, they'll be on it like space flies. Filling up the hotels, making everything more expensive… They're getting more and more persistent, the earthies with their looking glasses. Used to be they were just cute little glass toys; now those toys float around in space and just go around wreaking havoc! They're spotting unsuspecting new solar systems, ruining the market for near-earth holiday destinations, stumbling upon extraterrestrial starships, getting people fired unceremoniously from the job where they've worked for over a thousand years…"
Rto'sohe'vhin explained the purpose of the structures to us. As an agricultural-based society, his race has collectively channeled its immense intellect and technological prowess into creating gigantic starships which are essentially light irrigation stations orbiting their star. Using incredibly advanced technology, fragile solar particles are absorbed, enriched, and transmitted to their home planet, where the energy is distributed to their myriad crop systems, which thrive on the intricately balanced diet of enhanced photons. At peak capacity, these titanic machines can absorb and repurpose up to a staggering 20% of the sun's emitted light.
"It's pretty frightening, really, when I think through the implications, that loads of humans might be flocking over here any moment now. My word, they are messy. And loud. And it's all going to be my fault. I won't be able to show my [face] for thousands of years if this, my one silly, silly mistake, is what ends up bringing in hordes of earthie tourists. This place has charm, you know? It won't be the same if everyone and their neighbour finds out about it…"
The public on KIC 8462852 seems to be warming to Rto'sohe'vhin's plight in recent days, though some are still simmering. Our interviewees' comments ranged widely, from the sympathetic "We all leave our things out from time to time; his just happened to be spotted by those terrifying aliens from earth…" all the way to "He was always an idiot."
As we were speaking to Rto'sohe'vhin, something suddenly dawned on us (very stretched pun there unintended). When we asked him whether the orbiting light-irrigation stations could convert the enriched solar energy into condensed, apocalyptically-destructive laser beams capable of traversing the vastness of space and striking, for example, nosy planets like Earth, he replied in the affirmative. "Of course! But good heavens, why would you even think about such a thing?"
"After all, advanced races look out for each other… " trailed off the alien, who, we might remind you, is newly laid-off as a result of the earthies' discovery of his race. "…don't they?"
Time will tell, Rto'sohe'vhin. Time will tell.

Captain Planet open to Kepler opportunity, if an opening were to be made available
Shock hit the airwaves last week when widely beloved environmental pioneer Captain Planet announced that he'd be 'open to a move if a Kepler opportunity opened up'.
In a recent interview with Time, Mr Planet responded with the above when asked about his interest level in potential professional opportunities with newly-discovered Kepler exoplanets, which scientists believe may be habitable.
His comments have sparked anger worldwide. One netizen commented "If Captain Planet feels that way, they maybe he can just get his green mullet and weird blue self out of here!", a post which has subsequently been shared over four hundred thousand times at press time, despite its anti-blue and xenophobic overtones. Others called for a new environmental champion, questioning Planet's dedication, and some have even begun to suggest replacement candidates, pointing to Planet's struggles to establish himself at the top of the environmental champion table over the past decade or so.
In response, however, many have voiced support for the Captain, saying his comments were 'taken' out of 'context'. One commenter mused, "As soon as we find another habitable planet, we'll try to go pollute that one, too. Where better for him to go??" Many netizens have highlighted Mr Planet's many environmental successes, including the highlight of his career, the double defeats of Captain Pollution in the early 1990s.
Major media outlets have been closely following the news; BBC is leading the pack with their #trending Captain Popularity metre. In all polls, Mr Planet's public approval rating initially plummeted before beginning a wild variation over the past few days as new pieces of information have come to light.
The Captain, for his part, seems quite taken aback by the whole mess. "My comments were absolutely taken out of context," he said in a prepared statement. "I'm probably the biggest supporter of Earth on the whole planet. I can't leave Earth! The question about Kepler was posited from a purely hypothetical standpoint, and I answered in a fitting fashion. In fact, I considered it to be in jest, and I now regret having taken such a serious question so lightly."
The interviewer, however, claims that Mr Planet made several disconcerting comments in the lead-up to the interview. She described the Captain's demeanour as 'unquestionably grim' and 'almost defeated', and when she asked him about his current attitude toward humanity's environmental efforts, he allegedly simply shook his head and sighed, mumbling something about 'they…don't care' and '…hopeless anyway'.
The New Yorker has responded with a well-documented look at Captain Planet's sterling professional career, and I personally must say that the closing line, which referred to his record as 'unpolluted', was yet another moment of sheer class from the esteemed magazine.
We will keep you up to date as the situation develops.

With the news wires stuffed to the seams with discoveries on Mars and updates on potentially earth-like Kepler exoplanets, and blockbuster movie The Martian setting box-office records, Earth is starting to feel a bit neglected.
"I mean, look, I try not to root for things to not work out," explained the Earth, home of humanity for at least several dozen more years. We were asking her casually about the recent fuss concerning Kepler-452b specifically; the news pieces we've been seeing have run the gamut in terms of their analysis of the liveability rating of the potentially habitable planet. Some say it is an upgrade to our beloved blue marble, others say it is nowhere close to liveable, and the majority confirm that we honestly just don't really know.
Earth, however, seems none too pleased with the whole topic. She's still talking.
"It's just that you can't really expect me to hope my so-called replacement does that well, you know? I'm all for developing young talent. I'm just saying, I'm also not going to bow out so easily. I've still got ages left in me. I'm just hitting my peak!"
"I wouldn't mind having some sort of substitute come in – a backup – just to take some of the stress off. I'd love to get rid of some of you humans, don't get me wrong – I'm not naming names – but for people to start talking as if they've found a better planet?
"That hurts a bit. Yeah. I have to be honest, it does sting. It's like, you do your best for all these creatures, especially the humans, even though you're never cleaning up your messes, and you're real princes and princesses sometimes, a bunch of real twags, and for all that work, all you get is a box-office-record-setting movie about Mars!"
She seemed wistful for a moment, probably remembering the glory years when there were cool dinosaurs, or back when Planet Earth was the hottest thing.
In Mars news, while NASA has confirmed that water in the form of lakes did exist at some point three or so billion years ago, what exactly caused the now Red Planet to drastically change, suddenly losing its atmosphere and water, is a mystery. Whatever the reason, the loss of Mars left Earth as the only habitable planet in our solar system.
Come to think of it… as we write this, Earth is looking pretty suspicious.

Deficiency of folate (the naturally occurring form of folic acid and a form of vitamin B complex ) can be caused by some anti-epileptic drugs sometimes leading to abnormalities in red blood cell formation. Folate deficiency can also lead to serious birth defects called neural tube defects which happen very early in the pregnancy, often before a woman knows she is pregnant.
The mineral selenium is another nutrient, which act as scavenger for free radicals, having antioxidant properties and also appears to help control seizures in some children. It was found that some children with severe, uncontrollable seizures and repeated infections have low blood levels of glutathione peroxidase, a selenium-dependent antioxidant enzyme.
It is believe that vitamin E could be helpful for some kinds of seizures. In children, whose seizures initially could not be controlled by medication, seizure frequency was found to decrease in 60-100% of the children when they took 400 international units of d-alpha-tocopherol acetate per day for three months in addition to their regular medication. Animals given vitamin E are more resistant to seizures induced by pressurized oxygen, iron and certain chemicals. And clinical studies show that people taking anti-epileptic drugs have reduced blood levels of vitamin E.
Vitamin E apparently has no direct anti-epileptic action but act as a scavenger and take up free radicals protecting the membranes of brain cells in some forms of epilepsy such as post-traumatic seizures. In animals, seizures can be induced by chemicals (e.g. ferrous chloride) that produce free radicals.
Other nutritional supplements that may be useful in epilepsy.
Magnesium – 700 mg taken between meals on an empty stomach with apple cider vinegar or betaine HCL.
Vitamin B12 – 200 mcg. dissolved under the tongue twice daily, on an empty stomach.

Britain's green revolution will power economic recovery
Sat 11 Jul 2009 19.01 EDT First published on Sat 11 Jul 2009 19.01 EDT
Two centuries ago, Britain was at the forefront of a new industrial age that transformed our small island into the workshop of the world and a global economic powerhouse.
Now we must once more harness the expertise of our engineers and scientists - and the ambition of our entrepreneurs - to embrace a green revolution that will significantly change the way we all live and work. At a historic summit in Italy last week, G8 leaders agreed to limit global warming to 2C above pre-industrial levels and cut their emissions by 80% by 2050.
I know that, for many people, these summits can feel like grand talking shops with abstract arguments about issues of little relevance to their daily lives. But climate change will affect every individual, every family, every community, every business, every economy and every government. And I am determined that Britain will be at the forefront of the transition to low-carbon societies. Not only because it is our moral duty to future generations and because climate change, caused largely by the richest nations, hits the poorest and most vulnerable hardest. But because this new approach will underpin our push towards economic recovery - providing new growth, new jobs, new industries and new opportunities.
The global environmental sector will be worth £4.3 trillion by 2015 and sustain tens of millions of jobs. So the countries and companies that develop the technologies and services fastest will, as with the industrial revolution, reap the richest rewards. We already lead the world in many environmental technologies, from offshore wind to environmental instrumentation, and from energy control systems to carbon markets.
Within a decade, 1.2 million people in the UK will be employed in the green sector as a result of the investment decisions we are taking. Factories producing energy-saving products, construction companies erecting renewable energy systems, scientists working to develop new nuclear power, mechanics maintaining hybrid engines and people installing insulation in homes: this is the workforce of the future. So as we meet our international obligations, we must seize the opportunity for a comprehensive transition to a greener, cleaner future for Britain - one which is fairer, stronger and more prosperous for all.
Two weeks ago, the government launched Building Britain's Future, setting out our radical plan for recovery and beyond into a digital, low-carbon, high-technology age. We will pursue a new, more active industrial policy - investing towards a nationwide high-speed broadband network by 2016, building a world-class modern infrastructure and supporting future industries such as biotechnology, life sciences, advanced manufacturing and financial services. And over the coming fortnight we will push further ahead with a series of announcements on electric cars and railways and on energy-efficient homes and communities.
Ed Miliband will this week set out how we will meet our legally binding commitment to cut UK emissions by a third by 2020 and Peter Mandelson will unveil our low-carbon industrial strategy. This will involve innovative schemes, such as loans to families to make energy-efficiency improvements that are repaid though savings on fuel bills, and cashback schemes for households and communities that generate their own clean energy.
Under the Great British Refurb we aim to have every loft and cavity wall in the country insulated by 2015 and smart meters in every home by 2020. The revolutionary concept of ecotowns, meanwhile, gives us the opportunity to provide desperately needed affordable homes in environmentally friendly communities. This week, John Healey will be announcing the shortlist of locations.
A reformed planning system will speed up decisions on applications for the national infrastructure, such as nuclear power plants, wind farms and sea ports. The UK is leading the world in backing the construction of up to four commercial power plants with carbon capture and storage. The North Sea will once again become the powerhouse of Europe's energy production - this time through offshore wind farms rather than oil wells. And this week we will open south-east England's largest on-shore wind farm and set out how innovative wave and tidal schemes will help us to generate 15% of our energy needs from renewable sources by 2020.
Some of the measures we will undertake are undeniably controversial. Some argue that, amid demanding economic conditions, our resolve to meet environmental commitments should weaken. The opposite is true. Over the next 30 years, we face warmer, wetter winters and hotter, drier summers, accompanied by rising sea levels, inland flooding, drought and heat waves. Climate change projections issued last month suggested that, if we don't act urgently to cut emissions, these will become even more severe. The science says we have to take radical action, the economics says we should, and morally we must.
Just as the Victorians made Britain the first industrialised nation and reaped the rewards, so we can harvest the benefits of being among the first major developed countries to convert to a green economy. The transition is not something to be delayed because of the global recession; instead it is the driver of our recovery.

As you are aware we carried out some work to upgrade our gas network in Temple Road, Epsom earlier this year. We need to return during the school summer holiday to upgrade our network at the junction of Temple Road and Chase Road. Our contractor KLT Construction will undertake this work on our behalf.
So that we can minimise disruption, we have carefully consulted and planned our works in partnership with Surrey County Council. We have agreed to start our work on Monday 13 August, and last approximately 4 weeks. To ensure everyone's safety and maintain traffic flow, we need to install temporary multi-way traffic lights at the junction of Temple Road and Chase Road.
All businesses in the local area will remain open as usual. We do have a compensation scheme in place for small local businesses which suffer a genuine loss of trade because of our work. Packs are available from our website, sgn.co.uk, via the Publications section.
We understand that people can get frustrated by roadworks. However, the new plastic pipe has a minimum lifespan of 80 years. This means that when the work is complete, Epsom businesses and residents will continue to enjoy the benefits of a safe and reliable gas supply for years to come.


Preparing and submitting all the admission requirements along with your university application is essential for successful admission, but it will also result in speedier decision. Therefore it is important to thoroughly look at the admission requirements below and use it as admission application checklist of documents and academic certificates required.This is to ensure that you do not miss any documents or certificatesrequired to process your university application on time. Note that any missing documents could result in major delays and in some cases outright rejection.The university application checklist below should help you check against the documents required for each study level, depending on the university degree you plan to apply for whether it is international foundation, bachelor, master or PhD . Pay attention to the English language requirement by score band for the study level you wish to apply for.There are two types of bachelor degree admission; one is direct admission to year one for school graduates. The other is called top-up degree or advanced admission into year-2, year-3 or final year of the bachelor degree, for students holding a diploma, higher diploma or previous study credits.UniAdmission admission advisors know the admission requirements for each university and the specific study major you wish to study and will ensure that all correct documents and academic certificates are submitted along with your admission application . This results in a faster admission process.
The foundation year admission requirements include: high school certificate, passport copy and IELTS score. Requirements for international diploma admission include high school certificate, academic credits and passport copy. A well written personal statement maybe required for some study programs. Students who do not have the TOEFL or IELTS scores required can still apply for admission and receive unconditional offer of acceptance.


This last year life has truly changed for me in just about every way. I graduated high school, started a new job, started dating the love of my life, and had my circle of friends drastically change. I was also diagnosed with Lyme Disease and with that I've had to reevaluate my outlook on life. Ever since I was young, I've always been very strict with my self, especially when it came to my health and fitness. I'll admit I had times where I was a bit obsessive and it was more about how I looked vs. taking care of myself and caring for my body. I would never miss a single day of working out even if I was sick, and was very very strict on what I ate.
But then within the last year my migraines and headaches become worse and more frequent, I became so tired and unmotivated and everything started to fall apart. Everything felt like such a big task and my already struggle with anxiety and depression became worse, which meant my obsession with having everything perfect was not maintained and that made me even more depressed and stressed.
With time though I've learned to let go a little bit and be okay with what might be imperfections. I gained a considerable amount of weight and I don't keep things in order like I used too. This was very hard at first, but I've learned that taking care of yourself is always number one and you need to listen to your body. I got sick this week and am currently sitting in my bed at 11:00 pm and eating my favorite bad treat (chocolate covered sunflower seeds) and am not stressing out that I haven't worked out in a week, or that I haven't eaten perfectly. I'm just thankful that I'm able to take the time to let myself heal. I hate having this body that feels so broken sometimes and with my health being so poor it can get very frustrating, but there is always a lesson and blessing that can be found. I think one blessing I may find through this is to simply learn to Let Go, and to love myself where I am and not where I could be in a few weeks or next year. We are all beautiful miracles everyday!

It would be interesting to compare the treeless hills in the two photos of Aragon with today. They will be very probably be forested now.

Java Ladder vs CP/M Ladder
Differences between this version of Ladder and the original CP/M version.
This version of Ladder is very similar to the original but there are a few differences. My goal is to keep the original spirit and game play while making improvements.
Most of the controls for the lad are the same. The arrow keys still move the lad around, the space bar still make him jump, and any other key will stop him. Today's computers handle repeat key stokes differently than CPM systems did. If you hold down the a key there is usually a delay before the second key event is generated. This means that holding down the space bar to keep jumping probably will not work quite like it should. Holding down the space bar will cause the lad will jump once, then stop jumping for a second before continuing. To execute two jumps in a row, the space bar needs to be tapped twice.
The original ladder kept a rather long buffer of keystrokes. If you held down a key for long enough, eventually your computer would start beeping at you when this buffer filled up. Furthermore, it would take a few seconds to process all of the keystrokes is the buffer while you couldn't tell the lad to do anything else. If you held down the space bar you would continue to jump for a while even after you released it. I found this to be annoying so in this version of ladder only one keystroke is buffered for later use. Subsequent keystrokes will replace the keystroke in the buffer rather than overflowing the buffer and causing beeps.
If the lad is moving to the left or right, pressing the up arrow key will cause the lad to climb the next arrow key that it encounters. This feature of the original game was not consistent with other forms of motion. If you were falling and pressed left or right, you would still stop when you hit the ground. If you were moving left or right and pressed down, the lad would immediately stop rather than waiting to go down the next ladder that encountered. Similarly, when going up ladders if left or right were pressed and the lad was next to a wall, the lad would stop. If you were climbing a ladder and pressed left or right a moment to soon when you were at the level of the next platform, the lad would get stuck. In this version, if the lad cannot perform an action at the given time, he doesn't do anything with the command until such a time as he perform the action. Some people have written me that they used the down arrow key to stop in the original, they will have to find some other key to use for stopping.
If the lad jumps and hits his head he no longer falls straight down and stops as he would have in the original. The lad now continues in the direction that he was headed, but his jump is shortened. This makes it possible to jump barrels even when there is a low ceiling.
Floorboards that disappear when the lad walks on them still work like they used to with one exception. If the lad walks across a disappearing floor the floor will disappear. If he jumps across it the floor will remain intact. In the original, if the lad stopped on a piece of disappearing floorboard, there would be no way to get off of it without it disappearing, even by jumping. In this version the lad can jump off a disappearing floorboard and it will remain intact.

The claimant appealed the first instance dismissal of their claim for compensation pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 261/2004 (the Regulation) when their flight from Brussels to London Gatwick (LGW) was delayed in excess of five hours in October 2014.
The aircraft scheduled to operate the flight was also scheduled to operate a preceding flight from LGW to Brussels, however due to thunderstorms east of LGW, Air Traffic Control (ATC) had suspended departures from LGW. Approximately 50 minutes after the scheduled departure of the preceding flight, when it seemed that the suspension would be lifted, the aircraft taxied to the runway but ATC did not give permission for the flight to depart and it had to return to the stand while the ATC restrictions continued. The aircraft did not depart until 5½ hours later than scheduled, which caused the rotational delay to the claimant's flight.
The defendant sought to rely on the "extraordinary circumstances" defence to a claim for compensation under the Regulation. Dismissing the appeal in the County Court, HHJ Melissa Clarke found that the wording of Recital 15 of the Regulation was clear: "Extraordinary circumstances should be deemed to exist where the impact of an air traffic management decision in relation to a particular aircraft on a particular day gives rise to a long delay…".
The claimant was given permission to appeal to the Court of Appeal, arguing that it was necessary to determine the reason behind an air traffic management decision (ATMD).
The claimant argued that the court should examine the circumstances behind every ATMD and, if they did so in this case, they would find that the underlying reason for the ATMD was thunderstorms, which were not extraordinary, and therefore that the airline could not rely on the defence under Article 5(3) of the Regulation.
Rejecting this argument, the Court of Appeal agreed with HHJ Melissa Clarke that Recital 15 could not be clearer: ATMD was an extraordinary circumstance by use of express words. Recital 15 distinguishes an ATMD as an extraordinary event, whereas Recital 14 provides a list of circumstances which "may" be extraordinary.
Further, the Court of Appeal whilst agreeing with the claimant that the intention of the Regulation was to enhance consumer rights, highlighted that passenger safety was of paramount importance and sensibly accepted that airlines cannot simply flout the instructions of ATC as to do so would be unlawful and unsafe.
The claimant also asserted that Recital 15 should not apply because the ATMD did not affect a particular aircraft on a particular day but it affected 20 flights. The Court explained that this was an irrational reading of Recital 15 for it would make no sense if an airline could apply the Recital 15 defence to one particular aircraft, but not to others that were delayed by the same ATMD.
The Court also dismissed the claimant's oral submissions that there must be a one-off ATMD delaying a flight for Recital 15 to apply, since most ATMDs are issued in series arising from a continuing event.
Importantly, the Court clarified that the first limb test in Wallentin-Hermann  (whether the event was inherent in the activity of the carrier concerned) only applies to the circumstances listed in Recital 14, explaining that the Recitals address different factual circumstances and therefore have different consequences. Since Recital 15 is concerned with the obligatory decision of a third party which is deemed to be an extraordinary circumstance, the court need not look at the underlying cause of a delay.
Even if such an analysis was incorrect, applying the first limb test, the Court found the cause of Mr Blanche's flight delay to be the ATMD and not thunderstorms; the aircraft, which had taxied to the runway, was prevented from taking off due to the ATMD, which was not inherent in the normal activity of the airline and was outside their control and, therefore, extraordinary.
This case is a welcome recognition by the courts that carriers should not be penalised for prioritising the health and safety of passengers. This fundamental principle seems to have been lost over recent years with a seeming desire by the courts to award compensation to delayed passengers, blinding the courts to the perverse incentives this creates and obvious risk for air safety.


Each Thursday this summer, 25 emerging and established business leaders embark on a journey — by foot, train, and bus — to engage in a mentorship program at Youth & Opportunity United (Y.O.U.). However, this cohort of individuals, hailing from 16 countries across the African continent, traveled a much greater distance just to reach Evanston, where they are living for six weeks while completing the Mandela Washington Fellowship, a flagship program of the Young African Leaders Initiative (YALI).
Developed through a partnership between the Program of African Studies (PAS) and the Kellogg School of Management, the Northwestern program is focused on business and entrepreneurship. While in Evanston, the YALI fellows take academic courses at Kellogg focusing on new venture formation, engage in site visits to businesses and nonprofits, and tour the Chicagoland area through cultural excursions. Equally important as these activities is community service, which is why the group visits Y.O.U. each week as a part of the YES (Youth Entrepreneurship Summer) Camp, an ideal site for sharing their expertise.
Kebati Calvin is one of the fellows working with a group of students whose project is centered on providing healthy food options, particularly soul food adapted from family recipes, to the Evanston community. Utilizing strategies learned during a course led by Kellogg Professor Stephanie Farsht, Kebati was able to guide the students in discerning potential pain points during the first session with YES in an effort to strengthen the group's various proposals into a stronger and more cohesive business plan.
Mentorship from the YALI fellows feels like a "really big opportunity" for Jaden Leverette, a junior at Evanston Township High School and participant in the YES program. In addition to acquiring business skills, Jaden is particularly interested in building special bonds with each of the fellows, who she feels, provide a relaxing space in which student participants can be themselves. An advocate for access to mental health services, particularly for people of color, Jaden envisions spending time after college to create a community-based mental health organization designed to be an open and safe space for individuals and their families.
The Northwestern-based fellows represent a small fraction of the 1,000 African participants who were placed at various education and leadership institutions around the U.S. While YALI was created under the Obama administration to empower the next generation of African leaders, the fellows are already empowering others by sharing lessons learned within Evanston. For Kebati, who is the Deputy Director of the Nairobi Industrial and Technology Park, there is also a huge potential for how his experience at Northwestern could positively affect those living in his home country.
