When working under sinks or in other awkward places, the Power-Vee is like having an extra hand. Just squeeze the feed lever, and three offset rollers in the automatic feed grip the cable and drive it into the line. It's easy to use. To feed the cable, start the Power-Vee motor and squeeze the feed lever; to retract, reverse the motor and squeeze The Power-Vee feeds 3/8″ cable at 16 feet per minute.
Trouble-free operation and easy handling make the Super-Vee an excellent rental tool for opening clogged sinks, bathroom drains, and even roof drains. The variable speed, double insulated motor provides complete control for any small line job. The Super-Vee's slide action chuck lets the operator clear a clogged drain quickly and safely. With a quick movement of the grip shield, the operator releases or engages the cable, without the need for a threaded chuck, and with automatic adjustment for different diameter cables.
The rugged new improved Handy-Stand turns General's popular and reliable hand-held drain cleaners into practical countertop or floor machines. Ergonomically balanced for maximum stability, the lightweight portable Handy-Stand fits the Super-Vee®, Power-Vee®, and Handylectric®. All three models are ideal for unclogging sinks, tubs, and laundry drains.
Here's a compact, lightweight tool for quickly opening clogged sinks, toilets, and tubs. It handles rust, grease, sediment, and scale in lines up through 4″ in diameter. The Kinetic Water Ram uses a burst of compressed air that drives a shock wave (kinetic energy) through the water to break up stoppage.

Q: Regularity of integral kernel Let $\Omega  \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be some open set.
If, for all $\psi \in L^2(\Omega)$ and some fixed integral kernel $k \in L^2(\Omega\times \Omega)$ and $\ell>0$, it is true that both
$\int_{\Omega} k(\cdot,y) \psi(y)\,dy$ and
$\int_{\Omega} k(y,\cdot) \psi(y)\,dy$ are $H^\ell$-functions.
Does it follow hat $k \in H^\ell(\Omega \times \Omega)?$ I doubt that this is true, because componentwise differentiability should probably not include the common differentiability. However, I am looking for the best regularity we get for $k$ with this property. (Maybe also classical properties like continuity or existence of partial derivatives could be established).

A: The assumptions imply that $k\in H^\ell(\Omega)\hat\otimes L^2(\Omega) \cap L^2(\Omega) \hat\otimes H^\ell(\Omega)$, where $\hat\otimes$ is the (completed) Hilbert space tensor product. This space equals $H^\ell(\Omega_x;L^2(\Omega_y))\cap L^2(\Omega_x;H^\ell(\Omega_y))$ which, by interpolation, is contained in $H^{\ell-t}(\Omega_x;H^t(\Omega_y))$, for any $0\leq t\leq \ell$. So, indeed, your kernel belongs to $H^\ell(\Omega\times \Omega)$.

"Let Freedom Ring for Life & Liberty"
May the glory of Independence Day
Remain on mind, in heart
May we cherish our hard-won freedom
That it never falls apart
Because those who walked before us
Believed in freedoms' cause so much
We can carry forth a torch
of honor and "In God We Trust"
That first Independence Day
More than two centuries past
Must live forever in our thoughts
Never forgotten ~ never lapse
It is a precious land we hold
In safekeeping for our children
That they, as we, may enjoy
Lives bountiful, worth living
May God's blessings ever ring out
Over all our land
A toast of praise we raise today
Americans ~ join hand in hand!

Wish You and Your Family
A Safe and Happy 4th!!!
May God Bless the United States of America!
In commemorating MEMORIAL DAY, May 27, 2019
we remember that FREEDOM isn't FREE!
Our deepest appreciation, thoughts, prayers and HONOR
are extended to those who made the ultimate
sacrifice for our FREEDOM.

What you should know about Girl Scout Cookies
in .pdf format to print or share
Please click gold links for documentation.
What's the Concern About Funding Girl Scout Councils and GSUSA?
The Girl Scout organization persists in focusing on ultra-progressive political activism and activists, presenting controversial information and events to its girl members. 2018-2019 examples include:
hosting G.I.R.L. Agenda 2018: Leading Change Through Civic Action, featuring keynote speaker Jill Biden's message to "think of yourself as the next Ruth Bader Ginsberg on the Supreme Court; think of yourself as the next Michelle Obama, you know, our fabulous First Lady."
promoting, participating and partnering in the Teen Vogue Summit, an event focused on reproductive justice, fake news, and LGBTQ+ rights, with Cecile Richards/former Planned Parenthood CEO, Sharim Hossain/manager of Youth Organizing for Planned Parenthood, and Andrea Archibald/Chief Girl and Family Engagement Officer of Girl Scouts USA among the presenters.
Girl Scouts across the country opening for Michelle Obama's Becoming book tour.
promoting RBG, a documentary about Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg.
celebrating newly elected, self described Democratic socialist, Congresswoman Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez.
sharing a link to New York Governor Cuomo's State of the State address in which he states his intent to pass legislation adding Roe V. Wade abortion rights to the state's constitutionally protected rights.
Girl Scouts USA (GSUSA) and local councils continue to encourage and celebrate girl members' participation in the Women's March which includes "access to safe, legal, affordable abortion" among its unifying principles.
Girl Scouts' curriculum for girls, sold and promoted by every local Girl Scout council, recommends pro-abortion role models/organizations such as Betty Friedan, Gloria Steinem, Geraldine Ferraro, Hillary Clinton, Amnesty Intl., Population Council, ACLU, and National Organization For Women.
GSUSA confirms that its local councils and troops may collaborate with Planned Parenthood.
GSUSA is the largest member organization of the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS), providing 2.6 million of its 10 million girl and adult members worldwide and paying approximately 1.23 million dollars annually to WAGGGS based on the number of registered GSUSA members.
WAGGGS, which states that "anyone who is a Girl Guide or Girl Scout is automatically a member of the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts," aggressively promotes youth reproductive/abortion and sexual rights, specifically on behalf of its 10 million members.
GSUSA maintains memberships in abortion rights advocacy groups, including the Coalition for Adolescent Girls. Other organizations working alongside GSUSA in these groups include abortion providers International Planned Parenthood Federation and Marie Stopes International, and numerous organizations that push for unrestricted abortion rights.
Where Does the Cookie Money Go?
A girl's troop keeps an average of just 10 to 20 percent of the money she collects from selling cookies.
The local council receives an average of 65 to 75 percent of the money collected by all local troops.
GSUSA collects a royalty payment based upon its licensed trademark on every box of cookies produced. With approximately 200 million boxes of cookies sold annually, this amounts to millions of dollars of funding for GSUSA every year.
New Girl Scout Council policies require that individual donations to girls/troop in lieu of cookie purchases must be used to purchase cookies to be donated to military troops, food pantries, etc. So a monetary gift, intended to directly support the girls and avoid financially benefiting the Girl Scout organization, is actually buying more cookies.
Arizona Names Most Pro-Life State 2019
Arizona Named the Most Pro-Life State 2019
Americans United for Life is proud to present our 2019 Life List. Our Life List is our annual state ranking based on our comprehensive legal analysis of each state's legal protections for human life from conception to natural death.
This year, we are excited to announce that Arizona has gained our highly coveted #1 ranking this year, closely followed by Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Kansas.
Steve Aden, AUL's Chief Legal Officer & General Counsel, said that legislators across the country are continuing to fight back against "increasingly corporate abortion industry, that is determined to put their profit margins before the health and safety of women and children."
The AZ East Valley Action Alliance is grateful to our Arizona pro-life voters for electing those lawmakers who have taken a strong stand for life; protecting our pre-born babies and their mothers. We especially thank those pro-life legislators for keeping their commitments to the pro-life community, making Arizona the most pro-life state in our country.

General Election 2018 ~ Candidates' Pro-Life Pledge
The AZ East Valley Action Alliance Board of Directors commend and applaud the following candidates for courageously aligning their pro-life position with that of President Trump's bold pro-life agenda pledging:
1) to remain constant in safeguarding the dignity of every innocent human life from "conception to natural death"
2) to not allow to be misled by ignorance or corrupted by fee or favor
3) to stand unwavering for the "culture of life" ensuring every innocent life is protected under the guidelines of our Nation's founding documents: the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights; still the most fundamental laws of our land.
AZ Voters are urged to give consideration first and foremost to these candidates when casting their 2018 pro-life vote in the General Election on November 6th:
** US House – CD 5
Andy Biggs
**AZ State Treasurer
Kimberly Yee
** AZ Superintendent of Public Instruction
Frank Riggs
**AZ State Senate
Tyler Pace – LD 25
**AZ State House
Warren Petersen – LD 12
Russell "Rusty" Bowers – LD 25

Disclaimer: While the AZ East Valley Action Alliance does not endorse candidates, we do encourage the pro-life voter to review candidates' pro-life voting record and/or take their pro-life pledge under consideration worthy of a pro-life vote, as provided herein.
General Election 2018 ~ Candidate's Pro-Life Questionnaire
Taking the life of an unborn child is a horrendous and murderous act that has claimed millions of a generation. President Donald J. Trump has boldly proclaimed a pro-life position and from across our great nation, representatives are speaking up for the silenced voices.
As a "conservative 2018 candidate," does the AZ pro-life community have your pledge to support the President's pro-life agenda to include your pro-life vote on all pro-life legislation whether serving at the state or federal level in accordance with the current 2016 GOP Platform, Page 10: "We have these truths to be self-evident – that all men are created equal – that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights – that among these are LIFE, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness"? Yes_________(please initial)
Government exists first and foremost to protect these unalienable rights that God bestows on every individual; that man-made law must be consistent with God-given natural rights; that if God-given natural rights come in conflict with government, court or human-granted rights, God-given natural unalienable rights always prevail and there is a moral law recognized as the "laws of nature and of Nature's God."
As a "conservative pro-life 2018 candidate" will you please initial the following questions if you agree?
1) Safeguard the dignity of every innocent human life from "Conception until Natural Death"? Yes___________(please initial)
2) Pledge to not allow being misled by ignorance or corrupted by fee or favor? Yes________ (please initial)
3) Boldly proclaim your unwavering stand for the "culture of life" ensuring every innocent life is protected under the guidelines of the U. S. Constitution? Yes________ (please initial)

BREAKING: Justice Dept. Launches Criminal Investigation of Planned Parenthood for Selling Aborted Baby Parts
The U.S. Department of Justice officially is investigating whether the abortion chain Planned Parenthood sold aborted babies' body parts for profit.
Fox News broke the story late Thursday after obtaining a letter from Justice Department Assistant Attorney General for Legislative Affairs Stephen Boyd requesting unredacted documents from the U.S. Senate committee that investigated the abortion chain last year.
The committee, as well as a U.S. House investigative committee, both recommended that the DOJ investigate Planned Parenthood after finding strong evidence that the abortion chain broke the law.
The investigation came about as a result of a series of undercover videos by the Center for Medical Progress that exposed the baby body parts trade inside the nation's largest abortion provider.
Justice Dept. Launches Criminal Investigation of Planned Parenthood for Selling Aborted Baby Parts
BREAKING: Appeals Court Stops Judge's Order Forcing Trump Admin to Facilitate Illegal Immigrant's Abortion
An appeals court has stopped a judge's order issued yesterday forcing the Trump Administration to facilitate an abortion for an illegal immigrant.
As LifeNews reported yesterday, a federal judge nominated by Barack Obama ordered the Trump Administration to allow an undocumented teenage girl in the state of Texas to have an abortion that could be funded partly at taxpayer expense. Judge Tanya Chutkan had ruled that the government must allow Jane Doe to get an abortion by Saturday to end the lifeof her 15-week-old unborn baby.
Today, the U.S. Court of Appeals in Washington stayed Wednesday's ruling in order to hold a hearing Friday on the merits of the case.
HAPPY 4TH OF JULY….2017
WE HONOR OUR VETERANS 2016!
A Heartfelt Prayer for Veterans Day 2016
for all our Veterans ~ Past & Present
Almighty God, You are our Creator and Sustainer.
You are our Light and our Fortress.
You are our Wisdom and our Strength.
Lord, You moved upon men to establish this great nation.
You stirred men to hope and to dream for a land of freedom.
We praise you for this great nation.
Lord, you have inspired many of our best and brightest to
volunteer to proudly stand and defend our beloved country.
You have given us brave and loyal men and women
who have steadfastly served in their chosen branch of our military.
We gather today to remember our military personnel.
We acknowledge that their service enables us to walk as
Free men and women in this great land.
Lord, today we seek to honor your sons and daughters
who have served or who are serving our country.
We are reminded that because of their service we can live in safety.
We ask that you abundantly bless those who have previously served.
May their service time be rewarded in every way.
May they gain earthly blessings from their unselfish love of country.
Lord, we stop now and remember those who are currently serving.
We ask that you provide them with your
protection, your strength, and your peace.
We ask that you would abundantly provide for all their needs.
We ask that you would enable them to overcome every
personal and professional obstacle.
We ask that you would protect their families from hurt and harm.
May each of our veterans feel honored
not just today but every day.
Father, we also give special recognition to our wounded warriors.
We realize that many of our heroes are dealing with
physical and emotional wounds that occurred
as a result of their time of service to our country.
We ask that they would be given the best treatments available
and that you would add your supernatural blessings
to all the efforts given to them to help them.
We ask that you, Lord, would show them miracles as
they seek to gain health, stability, and wholeness.
We pray these things in Jesus' name,
We are most grateful to You, O Lord, for answering the prayers of our Nation in allowing Donald J. Trump to be chosen as our newly-elected President of these United States ~ against all odds! May he hold to his promise of providing excellent care for our Veterans and their families.

Trump Letter to pro-life leaders
LETTER TO PRO-LIFE LEADERS from
TRUMP *** PENCE
Paid for by Donald J. Trump for President
Dear Pro-Life Leader:
I am writing to invite you to join my campaign's Pro-Life Coalition, which is being spearheaded by longtime leader Marjorie Dannenfelser. See: http://time.com/4381684/scotus-abortion- clinton/
As we head into the final stretch of the campaign, the help of leaders like you is essential to ensure that pro- life voters know where I stand, and also know where my opponent, Hillary Clinton, stands.
Hillary Clinton not only supports abortion on-demand for any reason, but she'd take it a step further: she wants to force the taxpayers to pay for abortions by repealing the bi-partisan Hyde Amendment. Hillary Clin- ton also supports abortion until an hour before birth and she will only appoint Supreme Court Justices who share this view.
She doesn't even try to hide her extremism. When asked on Meet the Press when unborn children have consti- tutional rights, Clinton bluntly responded, "The unborn person doesn't have constitutional rights." She is so committed to this view that she proclaimed in a speech that "religious beliefs…have to be changed" in order to advance her abortion agenda.
Hillary Clinton's unwavering commitment to advancing taxpayer-funded abortion on-demand stands in stark contrast to the commitments I've made to advance the rights of unborn children and their mothers when elected president.
I am committed to:
Nominating pro-life justices to the U.S. Supreme
Signing into law the Pain-Capable Un-born Child Protection Act, which would end painful late-term abortions
Defunding Planned Parenthood as long as they continue to perform abortions and reallocating their funding to community health centers that provide comprehensive health care for
Making the Hyde Amendment permanent law to protect taxpayers from having to pay for
Your help is crucial to make this contrast clear in the minds of pro-life voters, especially those in battleground states. Together we can form this vital coalition so that Mike Pence and I can be advocates for the unborn and their mothers every day we are in the White House.

Where do the presidential candidates stand on life?
5 Questions: Where Do The Presidential Candidates Stand on Life?
(1) Ensure TAXPAYERS AREN'T FORCED TO PAY FOR ABORTIONS?
DONALD TRUMP = YES
"I am committed to making the Hyde Amendment permanent law to protect taxpayers from paying taxes for abortions."
HILLARY CLINTON = NO:
"Hillary Clinton and the Democratic Party have committed to repeal the Hyde Amendment."
(2) APPOINT PRO-LIFE JUDGES TO THE SUPREME COURT?
"Yes, I am committed to nominating pro-life justices to the Supreme Court"
HILLARY CLINTON = NO
Hillary Clinton would stack the court with pro- abortion justices.
(3) DEFUND PLANNED PARENTHOOD?
"I am committed to defunding Planned Parenthood."
Hillary Clinton would increase funding to the nation's largest abortion business.
(4) BAN ABORTIONS AFTER 20 WEEKS?
"I am committed to signing into law the Pain- Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, which would end painful late-term abortions nationwide."
Hillary Clinton supports abortion up until the moment of birth and has said that the unborn "do not have Constitutional rights"
(5) WHERE DOES YOUR RUNNING MATE STAND ON LIFE?
Donald Trump selected Governor Mike Pence, a pro-life trailblazer who led the charge to defund Planned Parenthood.
Hillary Clinton selected Senator Tim Kaine who says he's Catholic but is just as pro-abortion as Hillary.

Castell Faux Leather Wall Storage is rated 2.5 out of 5 by 2.
Rated 4 out of 5 by Tess1165 from Works well Needed something stylish to hold my magazines. I wish it were real leather but knew it was "faux leather" when purchased. Coloring is good, works well for holding my magazines. Would be nicer in real leather, but I still like the product and concept. Great vertical storage.
Rated 1 out of 5 by Sunnygma from Just Vinyl These are pretty cheap in quality vinyl. The description is faux leather but I would have to say that they aren't even faux vinyl. They have a plastic look. They were half price , will keep them and use them in my laundry room to hold shop towels .
Would a rolled bath towel fit?
Thank you for your interest in the Castell Faux Leather Wall Storage. Each compartment is just over 6.5" H with a 4" radius.

Greenko further expands hydro portfolio
Greenko only acquired its first, 49MW, of hydro capacity in the six months of the financial year to 30 September. In its results, Greenko said that after the close of the period it secured two further hydropower concessions.
The initial acquisitions were of the 24.5MW AMR and 24.5MW Rithwik plants, both of which are due to be commissioned in June 2008. Details of the new purchases were not disclosed.
In delivering its first results as a traded company on London AIM, Greenko posted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (Ebitda) of Euro1M (US$1.44M) on total revenues of almost four times as much. Revenues from sales of electricity were approximately 80% of total revenues.
In November, the firm floated on London AIM and raised just over US$60M. It plans to use the funds to help finance hydropower and other additions to its energy portfolio. Following the first set of results the firm does not plan to issue an interim dividend to shareholders.
The company was incorporated almost three years ago to focus on renewable energy supplies and provision of carbon emission reduction (CER) units. Prior to its entry into hydropower this year the firm has focused on biomass.
Greenko had 90.5MW of total installed capacity by the end of September and its medium-term goal is to expand the portfolio to have 400MW by the end of the 2010-11 financial year – in just over three years.

It all depends on your type of coding, but I for style I do prefer to put array data within a separate part of the echo statement, for example.
The CKEditor is a great WYSIWYG and the best thing is that you are able to customize the interface to have buttons on the toolbars, here is a way that I created a custom button with custom image attached to it.
Here is the custom dialog code that will be called when the user interface button is clicked.
This will basically insert some code into the CKEditor from the drop down box, the "link to image" you will need to insert a link for the insertion.
The great WYSIWYG editor called CKEditor allows you to do a custom file upload, so that you can handle where the file is stored and also you can do your database extra inserts for example.
Where the custom.imageuploader.php is the actual php page that will deal with the custom page, can be done in any other language if required. In the above code, the 'Content' is the textarea to change to a CKEditor WYSIWYG.
Here is a basic php page that you will need to alter to store the $_FILES["upload"] into the place where you want to store and do any database code to link to the resource that you are uploading, but the bit underneath that you need to have, this will tell the CKEditor what to do after your PHP code has stored the file, the CKEditoFuncName, is required (but passed in) to tell the CKEditor what function to call after the upload has happened, the $wherestorage, is where the actual file is so that the WYSIWYG can show the image and any $message that may help the CKEditor user for any error reports.
I liked to have the idea of having google search my site and have it displayed within my current site design, and since wordpress allows to have action hooks that allow you to interrupt the present flow of generating the wordpress outputted page.
within the file below within the that directory created above, (I saved this file as googlesearch.php, but it does not matter as long as it is a .php file with the plugin details at the top of the file between the /*… */ parts.
What basically happens is when the template_redirect is called, this is when most of the processing of the page has already been done, and we are about to display the requested page from the blog, well in this case I would like to add function call to google_search_display, which is within this same file, and what it does is to search for 'googlesearch/' within the first part of the URL requested e.g.
and if so display the googlesearch.php php file from within the templates directory, and here is my googlesearch.php file, and it displays the content within the div tag with cse-search-results, with the present style around the google search results.
wordpress is really nice where you are able to alter the present execution process.
As from the previous post, most of this page is in similar in nature it is just displaying data to the user that was built up from the classes files.
So to buy some stock, what this page will do is wait for the user to type in a stock symbol and then use the stock class to get the data back from that symbol and then have another input that will allow the user to buy some of that stock, also if the user clicks on the link it will display at the bottom of the page new items about the stock itself.
// the new value, just incase.
To view the stock details of the user, I just display the stock that the user has from data once again from the stock class, which also includes the current price of the stock. There is a checkbox that will allow the user to sell some of there stock (if they have any!!) and once again use the stock class to sell the stock and update the tables in the database.
The last part is the change of the password, which just will use the user class to update the users password to the requested input from the change password page.
The actual pages that are displayed to the user are all very basic as them selves, but the actual logic and formula are all within the classes that is the gold dust as such, since it is one point of checking and also one file to update if there is a update to the yahoo etc stocks details, because would have to update the different pages that display the stocks and that is not good for testing and also updating.
Since most of the work is done in the class files, from the previous post then we just use the classes to only have basic php pages for the user. So the login page is just, which also has a check for if the user is already logged in and goto the viewdetails page, or if the user requests to logout then logout the user, the main page is just logging the user in.
Here is the last part, that will allow the user to enter there email to be able to get a link to enable them to change there password.
Before any of the actual pages start, they will all call this php file so that it will build up the classes and connect to the database, so to start with need to pull in there classes and also start the session. The two functions are the HTML header and footer parts of each page, so that do not have to alter every page to just add in another style as such, the last part is when we are creating the objects for the database/users/stocks.
When the user is on the buying stock page, it would be good to make sure that the value is a integer value before the user actually sends the request to the server, it will also check to make sure that there is a symbol to search for, saves on just clicking on the submit without any data.
This function actually checks the users input on the amount of stock to buy and making sure that it is only numeric values.
This the actual function that will check the password is in the correct format, e.g. 1+ numeric/alpha characters. and more than 6 in length.
Here on the change password, I am making sure that the first password conforms to the above function check and also that the two passwords are the same in value.
Next is the actual php pages that the user will interact with.

Football transfer rumours: Arsenal to sign Wolves' Pedro Neto for £50m?
Today's whispers have a big decision to make
Having spent well over £100m, Arsenal want one final signing to seal what has been a quite glorious summer for the Gunners. Top of the league, it's amazing what a lovely new kit or two, some sublime Ian Wright #content on the socials, and the arrivals of Gabriel Jesus, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Fabio Vieira (who is nearing full fitness) and William Saliba (who has reportedly signed a new long-term contract after his return from his loan spells) can do for the brand.
Pedro Neto is the latest to be linked to the Emirates, and a fine buy he would be too, giving Arsenal some natural width to go with all their silky, jinking cut-inside-and-finishers. The Wolves winger would not come cheap though, with the Portuguese flyer signing a new five-year contract in March. Bids will start from £50m, apparently, and much depends on the potential departure of Nicolas Pépé to Nice.

Q: ASP.NET CORE controller parameters problems with multiselection datatables data binding I have a table with the datatable library attached which includes pagination and every row has a checkbox where the user can select multiple products to save.
It works, I get the selected ids of the products binded to a list when sent to the Controller, BUT it would only bind those who are selected on the page it is on when sent to the Controller even if I have selected multiple other ones on other pages in the table it would only remember that page it is on, I can even see they are still selected when I go back to the other pages so the checkbox works.
So my big question is: how do I make sure that every selected row is being bind into the controller paramter productidslist, even with pagination on in the datatable?
Each row looks like this:

  <input type="checkbox" name="ProductIdsList" value="@p.ProductId" />
  @p.ProductName

thanks in advance.

Matters Arising from the Minutes
To consider any matters arising from the minutes.
Former Marsh Lane Railway Station (Minute No. 71 referred) – With reference to the previous meeting when it was reported that the Chief Planning Officer together with the Chair had sent a joint letter to Network Rail seeking to ascertain what stage had been reached in any ongoing discussions regarding the re-opening of the rail halt at the former Marsh Lane Railway Station.
The Chair was not aware a response had been received and the matter would be followed up with the Chief Planning Officer.
Section 106 Agreements – Reference was made to the general issue of Section 106 Agreements, in particular the 3 month period allocated to finalise such an Agreement. Members were of the view that such a time period was unrealistic and could research be undertaken to identify a more realistic timescale.
The Council's Legal Officer reported that an exercise was currently ongoing, with data on timeframes for Section 106 Agreements over the past 12 months being collected and analysed in order to determine an appropriate benchmark. The findings would be reported to Members at a future date, but indications do show an improvement in the 'turnaround' time from instructions / Panel resolution to completion of Section 106 Agreements in the last 6 months and particularly on the more straightforward Section 106 Agreements completed
in-house by Legal & Democratic Services.
Application No. 19/01242/OT - Outline planning application including the demolition of the former nurses' home and other buildings and the construction of new adult and children's healthcare facilities, a multi-storey car park, new access and egress points into hospital grounds with landscaping at the Leeds General Infirmary, Great George Street, Leeds, LS1 3EX.

· Had there been any discussions with WYCA in respect of the pick-up and drop-off areas
· Height differential between the proposed new development and the existing Brotherton Wing

· Could some thought be given to the patient experience and assistance in getting around the building, particularly when distances between different hospital departments was likely to be considerable
· What was proposed for the open space/ green space and relaxation areas
· What was the timescale for the development and subsequent opening/ operation of different elements of the new facility
· The Calverley Street/ Portland Way Junction is very busy, are there any plans to upgrade it
· Was there potential for the City's Park & Ride services to access and service the new facility
· Decommissioned buildings/ empty buildings could be unattractive, what was envisaged for these buildings, what was the Masterplan
· One Member expressed concern about the size of the multi storey car park (650 spaces)
· One Member queried whether the provision of secure cycle spaces (100 spaces) was sufficient
· Consideration and monitoring of air quality around the new development, particularly having regard to controlling smoking around main hospital entrances and on the site as a whole
In responding to the issues raised, Planning Officers/ the applicant's representatives said:
· Members were informed that the design was a representation based on the design parametres for the outline application. The internal designs shown on the 'fly-through' were also illustrations of what it is hoped will be achieved . The full design details will be informed by a design brief and competition and will be secured via a procurement process.

The Chief Planning Officer submitted a report which set out a Position Statement in respect of an application which sought the demolition of existing buildings and structures and redevelopment of the site for a mixed-use development comprising up to 263 residential units (Use Class C3) and flexible commercial floor space (Use Class A1, A2 and B1a) together with associated vehicular access, car and cycle parking spaces, bin stores, plant, landscaping amenity space and associated infrastructure and engineering works, on land at Kirkstall Hill, Kirkstall, Leeds, LS5 3BH.
· Site / location / context
· Site currently occupied by a large retail unit together with some vacant buildings which are in a state of disrepair
· Key issues include: highway implications and viability issues
· The development proposes 263 dwellings: 183 apartments and 80 townhouses (Residential blocks are 3 storey's in height)
· The scheme creates a stepped design responding to the change in levels across the site
· Access into the development to be taken from Beecroft Street via 3 separate access roads
· 231 car parking spaces (Including 16 disabled spaces) and 25 visitor spaces
· Materials: red brick with stone accents to some elevations to provide character, roof material grey slate
· Affordable housing provision
· The area of land identified as Area 5 was outside the red line of the site
· The site would require 20% greenspace provision to be policy compliant (Policy G4), but that that this could not be provided in the way required by policy otherwise this would adversely impact on the viability of the proposal
· An additional highways contribution would be required which had not yet been taken into account as part of the viability calculations. This would potentially be for use on junction improvements (Hot spots), bridge widening, provision of 2 metre-wide footpaths and other highway works. This was likely to be required as part of emerging policy however, so can only be afforded limited weight.
· Controlled parking zone contribution was being sought commensurate with policy requirements
· Sustainability features, first passive design, possible connection to district heating system and electric vehicle charging points
· The site is designated in the Site Allocations Plan for mixed-use development, comprising residential, commercial and with some element of office use. The office-use has not been brought forward as part of the proposals, but there does remain a mixed-use element to the scheme proposed.
The application was being brought to Panel at this stage by way of a Position Statement, such as to allow Planning Officers to present the scheme to Members and for Members to consider and comment on the proposals. Members would therefore be involved in decision-making in respect of the application at a later Panel, but at this stage were to focus on discussion of the matters outlined in the Chief Planning Officer's report.

(ii) Outline application for hotel use from 16 up to 19 storey's in height (200 bedrooms approximately) at site bounded by Wellington Street and Wellington Bridge Street (Northern part of the former Yorkshire Post site)
The applicant's representatives addressed the Panel, speaking in detail about the proposal and highlighted the following:
· Northern part of the former Yorkshire Post site
· Full application – Two build to rent residential buildings, 17 to 23 storey's in height (419 apartments including 5 townhouses)
· Both blocks linked at ground level by a double height glazed residents entrance and reception area. Supporting commercial spaces would be integrated at ground floor to comprise gym, café and retail, alongside plant and bin storage areas
· Affordable Housing Provision would be delivered by commuted sum in lieu of on-site provision in accordance with Policy H5 (iii)
· Outline application - Erection of hotel 16 to 19 storey's in height (200 bedrooms)
· Hotel arrival zone – public space and active frontages
· Hotel to achieve a BREEAM Excellent standard
· New road to be provided to the south
· Emerging proposals for landscaping
Members raised the following questions:
· Welcome the cluster of the building, but buildings in close proximity could cause light issues, materials should be light in colour
· The Hotel, what was the intended rating
· Could Members be made aware of the species of trees to be planted
In responding to the issues raised, the applicant's representatives said:
· The Architect suggested that further discussions would be taking place with the Planning Authority, but the intention was to use some light colour materials and have overall variety
· The images presented did not necessarily give a good indication in terms of colour palette or distances, as the spaces between and within the buildings actually comprised a considerable square footage for a City Centre scheme
· Members were informed that at this stage no operator could be named but there was good interest. At the outline stage though, the developer was setting the parameter scale to approximately 200-bed
· The applicant confirmed that the species of trees to be used would be made available to Members.
In offering comments Members raised the following issues:
· The majority of Members were supportive of the scheme, commenting that it was a good design and well thought through
· Members welcomed the cluster of the buildings, the light materials to be used and emphasised the need for a lot of greenery
· The intention for the hotel to achieve a BREEAM Excellent standard was welcomed
· Ensure there was enough light between the cluster of ... view the full minutes text for item 86.

Pre Application proposal for the demolition of the existing building and creation of residential development ("Springwell Gardens II") with 288 apartments and a commercial unit. This was the second phase to adjacent Radius ("Springwell Gardens I") development (16/05198/FU) at Cartwright House, Springwell Road, Holbeck, Leeds, LS12 1EX
· The site lies within the Holbeck Neighbourhood Plan and within the South Bank Regeneration Area
· The proposal is to construct a 24 storey residential building, containing 288 apartments: 72 one bed suits, 80 one bed apartments, 122 two bed apartments and 14 three bed apartments
· All apartments would meet Nationally Described Space Standards
· Active frontage onto Springwell Road
· Secure cycle storage
· Parking for 24 cars
· 11 motorcycle parking spaces
· Communal terrace at first floor level linking in with Phase I
· Rooftop landscaping
· Large balconies
· Affordable Housing 7%, preferred option to provide off-site (Policy H5)
· Would a noise survey be undertaken
· Would all the apartments have a balcony
· Would Affordable Housing provision be provided
· Would any wind studies be undertaken
· Was overlooking of the balconies an issue
· How would the greenery be maintained, especially that incorporated as part of the 'hanging' design on the building's façade
· The Applicant confirmed that a full noise assessment would be undertaken. In addition, there was the intention to incorporate high performance glazing and a number of other measures within the design to assist with noise mitigation and ensuring appropriate ventilation.
· Discussions are underway with neighbouring landowners (including Network Rail) and these would continue as the applicant works towards an application submission. However, this is a City Centre scheme and there will inevitably be activities that are associated with a City Centre location that generate some noise impact.
· Members were informed that all apartments would have a balcony
· The Affordable Housing contribution would be delivered at 7%, on-site provision had been considered and it was hoped that this site would be attractive for registered providers, such that it may be possible to have on-site delivery
· Members were informed that a full wind assessment would be undertaken and submitted. The development of Springwell Gardens I had already provided some protection for the application site from prevailing winds, but further mitigation measures would be considered as necessary.
· The Planning Officer confirmed that some overlooking could take place but due to the good separation distance of 25-35 metres, and given that both phases were part of one overall scheme within a high density City landscape, the proposals were seen to be acceptable.
· The maintenance of the greenery was an important factor and further consideration was required, but ... view the full minutes text for item 87.

RESOLVED - To note that the next meeting will take place on Monday, 6th January 2020 at 1.30pm in the Civic Hall, Leeds.


For a given conveying system the air mover can be positioned at either end, as will be seen with Figure 3.3. If the air is blown into the pipeline, therefore, the air at the feed point will be at a pressure close to that of the air supply. In this case the material has to be fed into the pipeline at pressure, and so consideration has to be given to the possibility of air leakage across the device. If the air mover is positioned downstream of the system, so that it acts as an exhauster to the separator/discharge hopper, the air at the material feed point will be close to atmospheric pressure. In this case the effect of a pressure gradient on the feeding device need not be taken into account.
A further requirement of the feeding device is that it should feed the material into the conveying line at as uniform a rate as possible. This is particularly so in the case of dilute phase systems, for the material is conveyed in suspension and quite high values of minimum conveying air velocity have to be maintained. With a mean conveying air velocity over the length of the pipeline of 20 m/s, for example, it will only take about 5 s for the air to pass through a 100 m long pipeline.
If there are any surges in material feed, the pipeline could be blocked very quickly. Alternatively, if the air mover has a pressure rating to make allowance for such surges, the output from the system could be increased if the flow rate, and hence the conveying line pressure drop, was kept constant at a higher value to match the rating more closely.
into the conveying line. Some feeders have no moving parts, and so particular attention is given to them, as their means of material flow control may not be obvious.

Harley Quinn (Season 2): All the Best Inmates Have Daddy Issues Review
*This Review Contain Spoilers for Episode 6*
On this week's episode of DC Universe's Harley Quinn, All the Best Inmates Have Daddy Issues, we finally get to see what happened to Joker (voiced by Alan Tudyk) after his acid bath in the season finale.
Just as Harley (voiced by Kaley Cucuo) and Ivy (voiced by Lake Bell) are blowing off some steam at a local bar they notice a new bartender that looks a little too familiar to Harley. After a few quick glances, Harley realizes that it's the Joker, but a sane version of him – or at least as Ivy says, an unremarkable looking white guy. This is the reveal I've been waiting for and it doesn't disappoint. There's something so uncanny about seeing a normal version of Joker with a menial day job and a girlfriend with kids that he actually likes. Tudyk even slightly alters his voice to make Joker's voice a little less theatrical and maniacal. It's also nice to see the series still give some respect to the mysterious background of the Joker is still intact with there being no real name given to him. Regardless, after an awkward conversation with him, Ivy still isn't buying that Joker has really changed and we are treated to a flashback to Harley's days as Dr. Quinzel.
There's actually a lot to unpack with this flashback, mostly because it takes up most of the episode, as we get a glimpse in what certain characters were like before Harleen Quinzel became Harley Quinn. Obviously, with Harley being the new psychologist hotshot on the scene, she doesn't get much respect from a sober Commissioner Gordon (voiced by Christopher Meloni) and the District Attorney of Gotham – Harvey Dent (voiced by Andrew Daly). She's even called "skirt" by Gordon and I can't tell if it's more interesting how things have changed or how they haven't. Gordon is still vying for a bromance with Batman (voiced by Diedrich Bader), who's not having any of it, and trying to be the manliest man possible when we see him in a workout routine with Dent.
This week, we're introduced to a sane version of the Joker (right). PHOTO: LRMonline
Speaking of Dent, we get to see him before he garnered the name Two-Face and be the well-spoken District Attonery of Gotham. However, it's easy to see that he's not exactly the white knight of the law anymore and is being consumed by corruption. From how he just torches Ivy to put an end to her plant terror and then says how he can handle more patients like this through a bill he's passing to how he's ready to kill Harley, an innocent bystander here, if it means killing the Joker and improving his election odds, he's certainly already making his way towards a villainous turn. It's actually kind of nice to have this conflict with him and Harley here as it adds more motivation to their hatred towards each other this season since it looks like he's becoming a big threat. Also, the little joke about Harley giving him the name "Two-Face" and not getting the credit is pretty funny.
A trip to Harley's past also gives us a glimpse into how Harley and Ivy became best buds – which is kind of nice and plays into their current debate about whether or not people can actually change. While Ivy still has a distaste for people over plants, this trip back to her time in Arkham shows that she legitimately had pure rage towards people. The way she absolutely tears guards' limbs off and gives Harley a cold shoulder kind of shows how far Ivy's come. There're some nice moments where Ivy and Harley start to grow as she saves him from Dent improving his election odds with bullets and even a touching moment in the present when Ivy opens up about her abusive upbringing. Personally, I'd actually like to see more of Ivy and Dr. Quizel's relationship to show how they became such good friends as the glimpse we get here is promising.
Harley (left) and Joker's (right) first meeting a true power struggle. PHOTO: thegww.com
Most importantly though, we get to see how Harley and Joker's relationship began as she's tasked by Gordon to retrieve info about a bomb he's hid somewhere in Gotham. It's a scene that we've seen plenty of times throughout the years, but there's this competitiveness about this encounter between the two that's really interesting. It's almost as if they are playing game for power as Harley tries to extract info without showing she's weak and Joker simply wastes time until the right moment comes. Even the idea of Joker "saying his origins" by talking about his abusive father and ferret friend is great and this series pays further respects to the character by having him just steal Ivy's origins and proclaiming them as his own in the moment. It's another dynamic that I'd love to see more of in the future and is pretty fun to see here.
Eventually, after a trip down memory lane, the two call in Dr. Psycho (voiced by Tony Hale) to see if this sane Joker is just another one of his tricks and we learn that its not. It's official, the Joker is sane and there's no current plot to see him trying to thwart Harley. However, we do get a moment towards the end of his episode that the Joker might still be within this normal body as he delivers his maniacal laugh. Also, it looks like Harley and Two-Face are about to go toe to toe as he kidnaps her and Ivy for what's likely to be a diabolical trial.
The latest episode of Harley Quinn not only gives us the sane version of Joker that we've been waiting for, but also take viewers on an interesting trip down memory lane to Harley's time as a psychologist at Arkham – and with Joker and Ivy. It also establishes some issues between Harley and Two-Face that are about to come to a head in the next few episodes and that I can't wait to see.

Honor gets massive growth in China, inches closer to top spot
Huawei's former subsidiary, Honor is leading ahead of the former parent company and it's the only phone maker that made growth in the Q4 of 2022 in China.
According to the data compiled by IDC, Honor achieved an 18.1% percent market share in Q4 2022 with a massive 34.4% year-over-year growth. While Honor's market share was 11.7% in the same quarter in 2021.
Within a year, Honor made rapid progress, and the Chinese company continue to launch new devices among customers such as the Honor 80 series.
"Honor was the only Top 5 player that achieved growth in 2022 due to a low comparison base year and its aggressive product portfolio development." wrote IDC.
Other companies on the chart include Vivo, which was only inches away to lose the top spot to Honor. Vivo collected an 18.6% market share, it is reduced from 21.5% in 2021 with a -25.1 percent decline. Third comes oppo with a 16.8% market share and -28.2% YOY decline. Fourth is Apple with a 16.8% share and -a 4.4% decline.
Honor is introducing new devices among consumers, which are actively contributing to its sales.
In the third quarter of 2022, Honor had 17.9% of the market share. This result is featured with the sale of the Honor 70 series. With its extremely attractive appearance and good performance optimization, the X40 series has quickly become a "popular" product since its launch.
Meanwhile, other products continue to become important choices for the entry-level market. At the same time, the flagship Magic 4 series has made great efforts in the commercial market and won some government procurement orders.
China's smartphone market:
Other than Honor, China's smartphone is running record low, according to the market tracker, 285.8 million smartphones shipped in China in 2022, down 13.2% year-on-year (YoY) to below the 300 million mark for the first time in ten years. In 4Q22, the market declined 12.6% YoY to 72.9 million units.
