Confidential information should never be released wistfully or indiscriminately. There is no way to get it back once its been announced, ...or suggested, ...or even hinted, and bad things can and often do happen when the wrong people know, or think they know, a company is for sale.
Confidentiality is an issue over which we find views crossing the spectrum of concern. Some will have little or no concern about keeping it quiet and confidential, …in fact, some will name the business in their opening Ad. Others will be paranoid about releasing information, …in fact, some will want the buyer to make an offer, before they release anything.
On one hand, releasing confidential information to the wrong person, or even disclosing your intentions prematurely can threaten the value of the business. On the other, if you're looking for a serious offer from a serious buyer, and if you want an offer for a full fair market value, you'll first have to allow the buyer to look under the hood and kick the tires.
Keep it Confidential … As you begin to think about selling the business, may we suggest that you think about it and prepare for it quietly; that you do not float trial balloons with people you think might be interested or put out feelers in and around the industry. In particular, we recommend that you do not discusss the idea with employees or with suppliers, or customers, or competitors, or with anyone else who might be in position either to benefit from, or feel threatened by your plans to sell.
Even if someone is thought to be …, or even known to be a good prospective buyer, we recommend that you do not discuss the prospects until after you've set your selling price and terms, and until your disclosures are fully prepared and ready for release, …until you know the deal you are prepared to close and until you are ready to explain and justify it to others.
Confidential information should never be released wistfully or indiscriminately. There is no way to get it back once its been announced, …or suggested, …or even hinted, and bad things can and often do happen when the wrong people know, or think they know, a company is for sale.
Necessary Disclosure … At the same time however, in order to gain the serious interest of a serious buyer, and in order to ascertain the level of that interest, an equally serious seller must be prepared to disclose a great deal of confidential information. An experienced buyer is not going to provide a serious or committed offer to purchase at full fair market value without first being privy to a great deal of confidential information.
Not all buyers will expect access to everything immediately, but all experienced buyers will want access to everything before they're fully committed. At the same time, a cautious seller is going to be (and should be) reluctant to disclose all that information until certain the intent and ability of the buyer is to buy and not just to look and learn, and those concerns should elevate when the 'looker and learner' might be someone from within the industry; and maybe even a competitor.
Mitigate the Conflict … Thus, the conflicting interests of the buyer and seller can surface early. Improper handling of this conflict can result in the nullification of a good selling opportunity, but while it is important that no good selling opportunity be ignored, it is equally important that information not be released into wrong hands.
This conflict is best mitigated by early and thorough pre-diligence and preparation.
We recommend that your selling proposal be carefully calculated, developed and prepared in written detail, and thereafter, that information be released out of that preparation under strict terms of confidentiality and only to those who have been pre-qualified as having a sincere and capable buying interest. Many, including your competitors perhaps, will be interested in looking and learning about your business. Some may be interested in buying if it's a steal. Fewer will be seriously interested in purchasing the company for its full and fair market value, but such is the interest that should be selectively identified before disclosures are made, and disclosures should be limited to just those few.
When contemplating the idea of selling your business or as you become engaged in the selling process, we think you should always assume the following (and more) problems can and will develop from indiscriminate and untimely disclosure of your intent to sell and the release of confidential information associated with you and your business.
You should assume that your competitors will take advantage of any opportunity, including of any knowledge (indeed, any rumour) that the company is for sale. Assume that they will ensure that your customers hear the news as well, and assume that some of these customers are apt to lose confidence and decide to trade elsewhere. Any business decline, between now and the sale date will result not only in diminished profits, but may result also, at best, in a diminished offer from the buyer.
Disclosure to all the above will become necessary eventually. Disclosure, released carefully in a timely manner that does not erode confidence will be beneficial to buyer and seller alike, and such disclosure can be accomplished safely at the appropriate time. A buyer with a name, a face and a personality, introduced in the right way, at the right time, will be much more tenable than will a totally 'unidentified and faceless someone' who might be buying the business. We have found it advantageous to withhold any disclosure until the actual buyer can be associated with the announcement, and introduced.
This should generally mean waiting until after an Offer to Purchase has been submitted by the buyer and accepted by the seller, and usually, until after due diligence has been conducted and accepted and the sale is about ready to close. Final diligence is often related to will key employees continue after the sale, and will customers remain loyal to the company.
Assuming the seller will generally know the answers to both, both should be addressed in the pre-diligence presentation. You won't get a serious and committed offer to purchase from a knowledgeable and experienced buyer without the buyer being confident of these and other concerns. Most serious buyers will want to understand almost everything about the company before fully committing to the purchase.
As stated earlier, conflicting interests of buyer and seller can surface early, particularly when the planning, preparation and justification have not been adequate. But, as said earlier as well, these conflicts can be, and are routinely mitigated by pre-diligence work and preparations completed in advance of, and in anticipation of the questions. We trust you will understand how it can be accomplished, as you continue to read your way through our depictions of the selling process.

New Poster for "Eden"
Written by constantio on February 26, 2013 . No Comment, 162 views
Griffiths co-wrote the screenplay alongside Richard B. Phillips. The film tells the true story of a Korean-American teenager (Jamie Chung) who is kidnapped from a bar in New Mexico and transformed into a sex slave in Las Vegas by a band of ruthless international thugs. Beau Bridges plays an avuncular federal marshal, a good ol' boy, who turns out to be one of the operation's masterminds while Matt O'Leary is equally repellent as the boss's wildly erratic, drug-addled right-hand man.
Eden is scheduled for a limited release on March 20.

Look before you leap
A friend and fellow Skeptophile sent a story to my attention on Facebook that seems fitting for the last Skeptophilia post of 2013. It combines all of the essential elements: a claim that is so ridiculous that it clearly started as a hoax; a bunch of people (including folks in the media) who know so little science that they seem to have taken it seriously; a prediction that will have gullible individuals worldwide making complete fools of themselves next Saturday; and a Facebook back-and-forth that resulted in cheerful contributions from several loyal readers of this blog who were eager to get in on the fun of ripping the whole silly story to shreds.
The (recent) origin of the claim seems to have been this story in News Hound, entitled, "January 4, 2014 - Planetary Alignment Decreases Gravity - Float For Five Minutes!" Here's what they're claiming:
It has been revealed by the British astronomer Patrick Moore that, on the morning of January 4th 2014, an extraordinary astronomical event will occur. At exactly 9:47 am, the planet Pluto will pass directly behind Jupiter, in relation to the Earth. This rare alignment will mean that the combined gravitational force of the two planets would exert a stronger tidal pull, temporarily counteracting the Earth's own gravity and making people weigh less. Moore calls this the Jovian-Plutonian Gravitational Effect.
And here we run into our first five problems with this claim:
First, 9:47 in which time zone? You can see how that would make a difference. I'm assuming that it's 9:47 Greenwich Mean Time, which would certainly be the most logical interpretation, but it'd have been nice if they'd specified.
Second, even if we do assume that it's 9:47 GMT, then only the point on the Earth that is angled away from the Sun, and thus toward Jupiter and Pluto, would experience the effect, given that the Earth is spherical. The other side of the Earth would actually experience the opposite -- an additional pull of gravity (the Earth's plus Jupiter's plus Pluto's), and people in those regions would feel heavier and fall faster. People elsewhere on the Earth would experience this as a sideward pull, and would thus be more likely to trip over curbs and fall down.
Third, why would it only last for five minutes? In terms of apparent angular velocity, neither Jupiter nor Pluto is moving that fast. You'd think we'd at least have a few weeks' worth of floating about the place until everything drifts out of alignment.
Fourth, we have a problem with magnitudes, here. Jupiter is a big planet, yes, but at closest approach it is still very far away. We had a whole kerfuffle over "planetary alignments" amongst the astrology crowd a couple of years ago, which prompted me to calculate the gravitational pull of Jupiter on the Earth, and I came out with one ten-millionth of a Newton, a force a hundred million times smaller than the force the Earth itself is exerting. So there's no way that the pull of Jupiter will have any significant affect on your hang time, and Pluto would have even less.
Fifth, "British astronomer Patrick Moore" was indeed an authoritative figure in the world of astronomy, and for many years hosted BBC's popular show The Sky at Night. The problem is, he's been dead for two years, so he's not revealing much of anything at the moment.

But all of this isn't stopping the author of the story on News Hound, who goes on to tell us:
Moore told scientists that they could experience the phenomenon by jumping in the air at the precise moment the alignment occurred. If they do so, he promised, they would experience a strange floating sensation.
Astronomers have long been aware that there would be an alignment of the planets on that date, when Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto would be on the same side of the Sun, within an arc 95 degrees wide. But now the effect could be expected as the gravitational effect of the other planets on the Earth's crust is maximum even at their closest approach.
If you think you will be able to float around your house then you will be mistaken. BUT if you jump in the air at 9:47AM local time on January 4th 2014, it should take you about 3 seconds to land back on your feet instead of the usual 0.2 seconds.
We are then told to join in on Twitter, using the hashtag #ZeroGDay, which I definitely encourage all of you to do.
Okay, so here's the real scoop -- a discovery for which I thank my friend and loyal reader David Craig, who did some stellar research work on this whole ridiculous story.
Apparently, like so many crazy claims, this one does have a germ of truth to it. Patrick Moore was a smart, clever, and exceptionally funny man, and on April 1, 1976, he played an April Fool's Day prank on his listeners by claiming that at -- guess when? -- precisely 9:47, Jupiter and Pluto would be in alignment, and if they jumped into the air, they'd feel weightless. When the clock hit 9:47, Moore said, "Jump now!" -- and the telephone switchboard lit up with calls from listeners who said they'd felt the effect. (In fact, one listener was furious because he said he'd jumped so high that he'd hit his head on the ceiling.)
So this story is apparently just the whole thing going around again, because, after all, if a practical joke works once, it can always be reused, right? Evidently Patrick Moore thinks so. He wasn't content with pranking people while he was alive, he's continuing to do it two years after his death. Which he'd probably be pretty pleased about, and, honestly, is what I'll do if I have the opportunity.
Of course, I couldn't end this piece without some information on where the relevant planets actually are. If you'll take a look at the Planetary Orbit Map from Lunaf.com, you'll see that the Earth, Jupiter, and Pluto are very far from alignment -- Earth and Jupiter are more-or-less in alignment, but Pluto is clear on the other side of the Sun.
So I encourage you to participate on Twitter in #ZeroGDay, but don't bother jumping up and down unless you are doing so for another reason, in which case you should have at it.
And this seems like a fitting place to end. I am taking a brief vacation for the remainder of the week, so this will be my last post of 2013. I will be back at it on Monday, January 6, 2014, however, so keep those suggestions and comments coming. I wish you all a lovely New Year's Day, and that 2014 is everything you hope for!

I've talked about mental illness before. But in my opinion, as someone who's had extensive experience in this area, you can never talk about it enough. There are lots of peeps suffering out there with one form or another of this insidious disease.
I tend to come and go on this blog. The thing is, I can't access my 'Tarot brain' all the time. Only when I'm in a certain mental state. Maybe that's true for you as well?
I've had way more experience of mental health issues in the last few years than I ever wanted to so I thought it might be time to tackle the Tarot of Mental Illness in more depth. Unsurprisingly the cards involved include those in the last section of Life Lessons Tarot (aka the Major Arcana). Note: These cards might turn up reversed in a reading about mental illness.
This month's full moon goes by many names.
Technically, it's a Blue Moon i.e. The third full moon in a four-full-moon season, whatever that means. Blue Moons really don't come round that often. The next one isn't until 2015.
Some Native Americans call it the Full Sturgeon Moon. The large fish called sturgeon are most easily caught at this time of year. Others call it the Full Red Moon because the weather conditions in this season can make the moon look reddish when it rises. Yet others, the Green Corn Moon or the Grain Moon, because crops grow tall at this time of year.
I'm sure there are many more monikers for it in other parts of the world. But whatever you want to call it, I highly recommend going outside and having a look because right now it's beautiful in any language.

To me, the campus environment is great. The school is known for excellent programs and excellent sports (go Bruins). My program consists of a lot of code writing, collaborating with designers, and trial and error. Our instructors have built apps of their own, which you can download to your phones today. It is great having instructors who actually know what they are talking about.
I knew I wanted to attend Sheridan as soon as I got to the campus tour. The modern design and clean campus made me feel at home and inspired me to work harder on each and every assignment so far. Anyone looking for a great computer science program does not need to look any farther.
Loved my time at Sheridan

There's a weird narrative out there about Sheridan only caring about international students. I'm a domestic student and I finished my advanced diploma in marketing last year, which included the search marketing course. My profs were industry professionals who were extremely helpful and approachable. Most of them knew me by my first name.
I'm working at an agency in downtown Toronto right now and loving every second of it. I highly recommend the school and the program.

Summer blockbuster season has (almost) arrived, and with the U.S. launch of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 inching ever closer – box office analysts predict a commendable domestic opening in the region of $140m-$160 million – Hollywood studios are gearing up for one of the most crucial and indeed crowded periods on the calendar.
Following up on James Gunn's spectacular sequel, Warner Bros. is all set to unveil King Arthur: Legend Of The Sword on May 12th – those across the pond can expect Guy Ritchie's fantastical epic to touch down on May 19th, when said reimagining will be squaring off against Ridley Scott's Alien: Covenant – and today brings forth the new, and surely final trailer that uncovers a prophecy long foretold.
We are, of course, referring to Arthur's quest to rule Camelot and essentially overthrow the power-mongering tyrant, Vortigern. The Young Pope and soon-to-be Fantastic Beasts 2 star Jude Law is attached to play the film's big bad, and after raising hell from within the opulent halls of the Vatican City, we're intrigued to find out how the English actor channels that performance when placed in a medieval setting.
Perhaps most intriguing of all is the fact that King Arthur: Legend Of The Sword had been angled as a bona fide franchise-starter by Warner Bros., which would go some ways to explaining why the movie has spent so long simmering in post-production. It's almost time for Charlie Hunnam's title lead to draw Excalibur from the stone, though, and we know that he'll be flanked by a host of supporting players that includes Djimon Hounsou, Eric Bana, Michael McElhatton (Jack's Eye) and Game of Thrones star Aiden Gillen as Sir William/Goosefat Bill.
King Arthur: Legend Of The Sword gallops into theaters across the U.S. and United Kingdom on May 12th and May 19th, respectively.


The Ronettes had it all wrong. The best part of breaking up is not the making up. That rarely happens, and when it does, it often leads to more breaking up. No. What you really need is a deliciously painful breakup anthem.
Generations of musicians have written songs to soundtrack this low moment in our lives that is almost as inevitable as death and taxes. Our parents had Elvis and Gordon Lightfoot. We've got Adele, Ed Sheeran, Taylor Swift and Sam Smith. What follows – in our humble, many times heartbroken opinion – are the finest, saddest breakup songs of all time. Play 'em just loud enough to drown out the sobbing.

Q: How do I sort an activerecord result set on a i18n translated column? I have the following line in a view:
<%= f.select(:province_id, options_from_collection_for_select(Province.find(:all, :conditions => { :country_id => @property.country_id }, :order => "provinces.name ASC"), :id, :name) %>

In the province model I have the following:
  def name
     I18n.t(super)
  end

Problem is that the :name field is translated (through the province model) and that the ordering is done by activerecord on the english name. The non-english result set can be wrongly sorted this way. We have a province in Belgium called 'Oost-Vlaanderen'. In english that is 'East-Flanders". Not good for sorting:)
I need something like this, but it does not work:
<%= f.select(:province_id, options_from_collection_for_select(Province.find(:all, :conditions => { :country_id => @property.country_id }, :order => "provinces.I18n.t(name) ASC"), :id, :name) %>

What would be the best approach to solve this?
As you may have noticed, my coding knowledge is very limited, sorry for that.

A: You need to sort the entries after they have been loaded from the database. This should probably do the trick:
Provinces.find(:all, :conditions => {:country_id => @property.country_id}).sort_by{|p| p.name}

Q: Beat em' up game space management? I am in the process of making my 2D engine for a Beat'em Up game (Castle Crashers is what I call Beat'em Up or Brawler kind of game ).
I will support 2D sprites and 2D particle emitters. This is all done in the engine now. But I have come to an issue that I would like to ask for advice:
It's about "space" management, what I thought was to do something as this image shows:
alt text http://img337.imageshack.us/img337/9162/spacingprototype1.png
My idea is to make a grid ( Spatial Hash or Grid ), of the ground where my Particle Emitters / 2D sprites will live. In my picture, I have enumerated this slots from 1 to N, (don't have to be 35, it's just for showing purposes ). My idea is to draw the "GameElements" (Sprites/Emitters) in order from 0 to N , ( going from bucket 0 to bucket N ) , so then I will get them to display correctly overlapped on screen (back to forward).
I know this could be done by just comparing the lower Y axis of each Element and performing a "quicksort" too, but having the Grid could allow me to perform Collision Detection in a better way , and if I do something like A* to implement some kind of AI, it could help me too.

A: If you want to have some sort of optimization for the number of objects you need to test against each other, you might want to think about using a Quadtree
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadtree
The idea is to divide the screen up in 4 nodes, placing all items in the node they belong, then divide the nodes you just created up in another 4 if there are sprites/items/whatever in there that need to be tested. Keep doing this until a certain size or amount of items in a node has been reached.
You can then ask the top-node if it contains the item you want to test. This node will then ask the child-nodes if it contains the item, which in their turn will ask their children. This way a large part of the screen can be skipped already (if it's located in child 00, you can skip child 01, 10 and 11). Then you get a list of items you perform more specific collision detection on when it's desired to do so.
If you were to make it visual, it would look a bit like this:
alt text http://geodata.ethz.ch/geovite/tutorials/L2GeodataStructuresAndDataModels/en/images/quadtree.gif

A: Fire them out to the Z buffer and let that worry about it.
If you find that in the future it is too slow (via profiling obviously) then look at optimizing it.
Take the simplest solution and move on.

A: Your method fails if you have two sprites occupying the same box in the grid.  Suppose you have two enemies both standing in the same box.  One stands slightly in front of the other.  Which do you draw first?  You would need two algorithms - one which divides the sprites into the grid, and the second which looks at the z co-ordinates of all the sprites in a given grid box and draws them based on that value.
A far simpler method is to have a single collection of all sprites.  It should store all sprites sorted by their z co-ordinates (from the back of the screen at the head of the list to the front of the screen at the back).  Loop through the collection and draw each sprite as it appears.  When a sprite moves into or out of the screen (ie. its z co-ordinate changes) you can perform a very simple sort to move that single sprite within the collection.  Keep swapping it with the next sprite in the list until the next sprite's z co-ordinate is greater than/less than (as appropriate) the changed sprite's co-ordinate.

Home Fatawa Fatawa of Permanent Committee Salah Recitation during Salah
What is the ruling on saying ''Amen''
Q 9: Should Ta'min (saying: "Amin" after reciting Surah Al-Fatihah) in Jahri Salah (Prayer recited aloud) be said with the Imam (leader of congregational Prayer) or after him?
A: Abu Hurayrah narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) stated, When the Imam pronounces Ta'min, follow him, for if anyone's utterance of Ta'min coincides with that of the angels, they will be forgiven their past sins. Ibn Shihab said, The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) used to say "Amin." Narrated by the Group of Compilers of Hadith (Al-Bukhari, Muslim, Ahmad, Abu Dawud, Al-Tirmidhy, Al-Nasa'i, and Ibn Majah). However, Al-Tirmidhy did not mention the saying of Ibn Shihab. In another narration, When the Imam says, ...not (the way) of those who earned Your Anger (i.e. those who knew the Truth, but did not follow it) nor of those who went astray (i.e. those who did not follow the Truth out of ignorance and error). Say "Amin", as the angels say "Amin" at the same time. Those whose utterance of Ta'min coincides with that of the angels, their past sins will be forgiven. Narrated by Ahmad and Al-Nasa'i. Abu Hurayrah narrated that whenever the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) recited ...not (the way) of those who earned Your Anger (i.e. those who knew the Truth, but did not follow it) nor of those who went astray (i.e. those who did not follow the Truth out of ignorance and error). He said "Amin" so that those behind him in the first row could hear it. Narrated by Abu Dawud and Ibn Majah. He also said, "So that those in the first row could hear it and voices would reverberate in the Masjid (mosque)." (Part No. 6; Page No. 424) Wa'il ibn Hujr (may Allah be pleased with him) said I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) reciting ...not (the way) of those who earned Your Anger (i.e. those who knew the Truth, but did not follow it) nor of those who went astray (i.e. those who did not follow the Truth out of ignorance and error). And then he said "Amin" in a prolonged voice. Narrated by Ahmad, Abu Dawud, and Al-Tirmidhy. Thus, it becomes evident that it is permissible for Ma'mums (persons being led by an Imam in Prayer) to say "Amin" when the Imam recites ...nor of those who went astray. Whether he says "Amin" or not. Ta'min is a Sunnah (action following the teachings of the Prophet) to be done by anyone praying, and it is not conditioned upon the Ta'min of the Imam.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.

Cranfield University is an exclusively postgraduate University with an emphasis on the aerospace, agrifood, defence and security, environmental technology, leadership and management, manufacturing and transport system sectors. The University has grown steadily since its creation in 1946 as the College of Aeronautics and over the last thirty years it has become the largest centre in Europe for applied research, development and design. The campus takes its form from the World War II airfield that was RAF Cranfield and although some buildings have been extensively restructured, many are still recognisable as former barrack blocks. Some of the most recent buildings have been developed by celebrated architects including Foster and Partners, Sheppard Robson and Stanton Williams. The existing Masterplan, developed to meet the University's aspiration for growth, will provide a framework for the sustainable development of the University over the next 25 years, building on its distinctive strengths, enhancing the students experience and encouraging interdisciplinary work.
OOBE are developing a campus wide landscape strategy that can be progressively implemented and will provide existing and proposed buildings with an attractive setting. It will ensure that a series of linked and coherent spaces are achieved to allow for clear pedestrian movement corridors, recreational space and structured control of the movement and parking of vehicles. Balancing the challenges of developing a movement strategy for autonomous vehicles, creating an attractive planting strategy, increasing biodiversity and the restrictions involved with the close proximity of the University Airport will be key to a successful masterplan.

Applications/Solution


Social networks' failure to tackle cyber-bullying is risking the mental health of young people, a Children's Society survey has found.
However 83% want social media companies to do more to tackle the problem.
According to the Safety Net report, most of the respondents felt that there was a lack of consequences for people who engage in bullying behaviour online, in contrast to the offline world.
"Social media companies should take complaints more seriously. If someone reports something, they shouldn't take days to review it, they should literally just remove it straight away," said a 15-year-old girl, who responded to the online survey.
The inquiry is calling on social media companies and the government to act to tackle cyber-bullying.
The inquiry was set up by Tory MP Alex Chalk, together with two children's charities The Children's Society and YoungMinds.
The 15-year-old female survey respondent said that young people today "kind of expect" to experience cyber-bullying.
"Nasty comments on the selfie, Facebook posts and Twitter posts, people screengrabbing your Snapchat story to laugh about it… I feel like it's something people don't take seriously," she said.
The inquiry also found that social media is extremely addictive, with one in 10 young people surveyed admitting that they log on to social networks after midnight every night.
One respondent likened social networks to being "almost like a drug", and young people gave evidence to the inquiry that they felt judged and inadequate if they didn't have enough "likes" on posts or enough followers on their accounts.
The heaviest users of social media amongst the respondents were mostly likely to have low wellbeing and symptoms of anxiety and depression.
And those who had been bullied online told the inquiry that they would frequently check their account newsfeeds to see what else had been shared or said about them on the platforms.
"Cyber-bullying can devastate young lives, but to date the response from social media companies has been tokenistic and inadequate. It has failed to grip the true scale of the problem," said Mr Chalk.

This is where the escaped 9ft Cambridge python is likely to be
The massive snake slithered out of its home this weekend and is yet to be caught
A 9ft reticulated python that escaped from its home this weekend is still on the loose in Cambridge - and an expert has revealed where it is likely to be.
The reptile slithered out of a top bedroom window and onto Lovell Road in the early hours of Sunday morning (June 30).
Local residents have searched for the snake , but it is still yet to be found.
There haven't been any reported sightings of the reptile since it first escaped, but there has been speculation over where it could be.
Chairman of Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Amphibian and Reptile Group (CPARG), Steve Allain, said: "It's likely to be somewhere warm so it could be basking in an area of short grass."
Lovell Road, where the snake was last seen, is surrounded by a number of green open spaces including the Science Park.
There are also grassy areas near the Guided Busway, which is close to where the snake went missing.

But Steve says Milton Road and the Guided Busway will likely be a be a "physical barrier" for the snake.
He said: "Snakes don't have any external ears, instead they feel vibrations so it will be terrified because it will feel the vibrations of the traffic which will be overwhelming for it.
"It may cross the road but it's unlikely as it's very busy and the snake is so long that it would be spotted or easily get hit by a car or lorry if it did.
"The Busway would also be a barrier because the snake would have never felt concrete before so it will be having a sensory overload.
"It could be anywhere but my hunch is it's still somewhere in the estate it came from."
Steve said the snake poses no threat to humans and that it would "slither away" if it came into contact with anyone.
He said it would only attack small animals like chickens.

But Senior teaching lab technician at the Department of Zoology at Cambridge University, Daniel White, said: "It's not going to eat a small child but they have teeth that curve towards the back of the mouth that are incredibly sharp and are designed to not let their prey escape.
"If a young child sees it and becomes curious of the animal and goes near it, then they could potentially receive a very nasty bite so I would advise parents to keep an eye on their children at all times if they do go outside whilst the snake is out there.
"But I would also keep pets inside as the snake could easily eat a cat, guinea pigs, rabbits etc.
"I'm slightly concerned how it escaped - snakes are incredibly strong and a snake of that size should be in a custom escaped proof enclosure.
"For example one of mine which is a Dumeril Ground Boa which will grow to around seven feet in length but is currently around five feet and is heavily built, is in a custom built vivarium with sliding glass windows that are extra strong and there is a lock on the windows to prevent escape."
Anyone who spots the snake should contact Cambridgeshire police by calling 101.

So I gave it a shot. Boy was I surprised…I love this gorgeous light weight foundation!
The powder has a silky smooth texture with a wonderful application. It feels extremely light on my skin and it's buildable so it covers my major sins without looking fake or caked on. I typically have a problem with foundation wearing off quickly, yet this lasts pretty long for me. Not exactly the promised 12 hours, but I still get a good 6 hours of wear.
There are 30 different shades, which is an incredible range. I tried three shades, all of which work well with my NW23 skin. In fact, I couldn't even swatch these because the foundation blends so well it just doesn't show up on camera.
The Core Coverage Brush is just perfect for application.
Built with tightly packed synthetic fibers at its core, use barePRO Performance Wear Powder Foundation with the retractable Core Coverage Brush for fast, detailed coverage and an unparalleled airbrushed finish.
The angled shape is great for coverage around the nose and chin, and it picks up the perfect amount of product. And it's just so easy to apply – there is no need to buff or blend, it goes on seamlessly and looks fantastic. It makes my skin look like I have no pores…that's a Christmas miracle right there.
I think these shades are stunning, particularly together – they just look like a summer sunset, don't they?? They have a rather powdery texture and the shimmery shades definitely have fallout. To lessen that pat them on, don't sweep them onto your eyes. If you are going to be in the sun, know that you will probably have sparkle on your face, not just your eyes.
The shades are stunning together and make a perfect palette for summer. For lips, I am loving the Chase Your Dreams shade of Marvelous Moxie Lipstick.
Marvelous Moxie Lipstick in Chase Your Dreams is a warm, brown-toned rose. This is a quintessential summer shade that works for day or night. I always love the texture and wear of the Marvelous Moxie lippies – buttery smooth, long-wearing full coverage.
Marvelous Moxie Lipstick has a slight minty taste at first, but that goes away quickly. It leaves lips hydrated with a nice slip thanks to the 'moisture-loaded hydrating complex that helps to nourish and condition with Abyssinian Oil and Omega Fatty Acids for supple, baby-soft smoothness.' In addition, encapsulated vitamin A, C and E complex work hard as antioxidant defense.
Now that the weather is warming I'm finally in the mood for a softer palette. I loved a stronger eye in the winter but it just feels off for me in spring. I'm late to the game with bareMinerals Modern Pop Ready Eyeshadow palette in The Modern Icon but that doesn't mean you need to be late too. When bareMinerals sent this I started to wear it but I was still into my winter darkness, now I love this softer look especially since I'm wearing softer colors in my clothing too.
bareMinerals READY palettes are among my favorites. Just like we've come to expect with bareMinerals and bareEscentuals the colors are minerals so they don't have preservatives and are cruelty free. bareMinerals uses a proprietary SeaNutritive Mineral Complex that helps the skin on your eyes so you are doing more than make them look pretty – the mineral complex has skin-nourishing benefits that will help reduce the look of fine lines.
The Modern Icon has this great POPping design with dots on the compact and on the shadows. Of course they wear away on the shadows but it's still cute to look at.
Top left is Chic which is a very soft pink cashmere shade. Next to that is Carefree, which is described as peach sherbet. The bottom row contains Sophisticate which is a light dusty amethyst and Exhale, the smoky taupe.
None of the shades are dark in this palette so it's great for both young and old. It is appropriate for a teen that you don't want to see covered in dark shadows and it's soft enough to not emphasize the texture on eyes of someone older.
This is available at Ulta, bareminerals.com, and beauty.com for $30. And while you are shopping you need to check out the bareMinerals Lasting Line Long-wearing Eyeliner in Classic Cream for $16. Hopefully this isn't limited edition like the palette because this is a winner for all year round.
While people talk about using liner on their waterline, I find that it closes my eyes up too much. The bareMinerals Lasting Long Wearing Eyeliner in Classic Cream is the perfect solution to this because it actually opens up the look of my eyes. While it's easy to wear this as a regular eyeliner, especially under your eyes, I prefer it on my bottom waterline. It doesn't last all day but it does last for most of the day which I find amazing.
One side is the twist up liner while the opposite end has a built in sharpener and smudger.

The Georgia State Patrol is investigating the crash.
A store employee and a Rockdale County Sheriff's Office deputy were injured after he swerved to avoid two dogs and crashed into the side of a brick convenience store in Walton County, officials said.
A picture released by the Monroe Police Department shows the deputy's squad car halfway inside the store at the Sims gas station on West Spring Street.
The Georgia State Patrol, which is investigating the crash, said the deputy was driving on West Spring Street about 6:20 a.m. Tuesday when he swerved to the left to avoid the dogs crossing the street. He went off the road, into bushes and hit a street sign in front of a Taco Bell. He then hit a sign and a light pole, and continued across Breedlove Drive into the gas station.
An employee inside the store was injured when the brick wall was knocked into the store.
The deputy suffered minor injuries and was taken to Piedmont Walton Hospital for treatment.
Monroe is located about 45 miles east of Atlanta. Officials did not say why the Rockdale deputy was in Walton County.


Redevelopment of two blocks of commercial buildings into mixed-use retail/commercial buildings between Lower Regent Street and Haymarket, London, as part of The Crown Estate's redevelopment plan for the whole of the St. James's Area.
Waterman provided structural, civil engineering services from the planning stage to the completion of the project.
The new foundations have been designed to work within the load bearing and vibration restrictions set by Crossrail which are required for the further Crossrail 2 tunnels which run underneath the St James's Market site.
In the planning of the location of the link tunnel between the two buildings, carefully planning and extensive surveys were carried out in order to avoid the existing main sewer under the carriageway and also matching the basement levels of the two buildings.
In order to optimise of the steel tonnage, we worked with the steel sub-contractor, to optimise the weight of the fabricated beam sections while achieving the dynamic response requirements of the floor slabs.
Waterman worked closely with the engineer from D&B Contractor, to develop a steel-concrete connection detail which avoided the forming of pockets in the shear walls and also fulfilling the weight limit for lifting cast-in items onto the slipform rigs.
Sharing structural 3D Revit model with sub-contractors helped in the design co-ordinations between services and structures as well as between the cast-in items and the reinforcement layout.
