Perhaps the most sufficient and affordable way to ship a car to Peru from the U.S. is through professional overseas transport services.
As long as you buy shipping services through a reliable transporter, you can look forward to your car's safe delivery into a new country. The best part about shipping services is that they are inexpensive and worth the money.
What Must a Transport Company Know before They Can Give a Quote?
Age and Weight of Vehicle.
Auto Transport Methods to Consider.
There are two shipping methods that remain favored by regular shipping customers. One of them is much cheaper in price than the other. Once you learn the differences between them, you'll have a better understanding why. However, the shipping method you choose is entirely up to you. All services offered by a reputable transporter will have the vehicle's safe arrival in Peru at the forefront of their mind.
Container shipping allows the vehicle to go inside of an enclosed trailer while aboard the ship. The space inside the container can be shared with another person, which will also ease the price of transport. The vehicle can also hold belongings.
If you buy RO/RO shipping services, the car will be secured on top of a flatbed ship. This shipping method is the least expensive but provides enormous safety. It is uncommon for there to be any concern after the car is delivered, but insurance coverage offers an extra layer of security.
Keep your budget in mind as you choose your shipping services. Customer service will be happy to help you find the best way to ship your car to Peru if you want them to. They can even customize your transport to suit your shipping needs better.

Q: How to automatically remap .html pages to .aspx pages? We have a website; which, till now had only HTML pages. Now we are redeveloping it in ASP .Net.
This means that all the .html pages will be changed to .aspx extension. The problem is, there are a lot of external references to these pages, and we dont want to go and chage each and every link to aspx right away.
Is there any way to redirect a link to .html pages to .aspx pages? For example, is there any way that the server checks the file specified, finds out that it links to .html page and automatically opens the .aspx page?

A: I would take this opportunity to leave extensions (.html, .aspx, etc) behind.
For all our major websites we now use a custom mapping system, whereby a virtual page URI is mapped to a specific .aspx (or.html) page. This has a few benefits:

*

*Your visitors see "nicer" URIs;

*You're free to re-organise your site as you see fit, behind the scenes, without breaking existing incoming links;

*You can use dynamic virtual URIs, eg instead of /Product.aspx?p=Blah, you can use /Products/Blah

We have our own custom system, but I believe ASP.NET MVC now has this feature built-in.
(If you go down this route, you can add legacy mappings for .html URIs that point to your new .aspx pages).

A: if you do some sort of url rewriting you can have all the links stay the same and just serve up the aspx pages, request for index.html gets mapped to index.aspx
here's what ms says about asp.net url rewriting:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms972974.aspx

A: You might want to look into the ASP.NET System.Web.Routing namespace, which was added in .NET 3.5 SP1 I believe:
http://blogs.msdn.com/mikeormond/archive/2008/05/14/using-asp-net-routing-independent-of-mvc.aspx
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.routing.aspx

A: Here's how we handled a similar situation.

*

*Setup IIS to map html extension to ASP.Net instead of handling it directly.

*In the HttpApplication.BeginRequest handler see if the request is being made for a html file that has been migrated to aspx if so then serve out the aspx page instead by redirecting the response.

*In case the html fiile hasn't been mapped yet just serve out the static html file.

A: Like stusmith touched on, you should not let your underlying technology be exposed (and certainly not mandate) what your URIs look like. The best way is as mentioned to not show any extensions at all, but in the current situation maybe it is possible to configure the system in such a way that .html files are acted upon as if they were .aspx?
I don't know the first thing about .NET but I assume that this is possible without having to go through too many hoops.
The second best approach is to rewrite the URIs, but that requires extra work for the server (not much, but it adds up).
(Don't redirect with a meta refresh. Every other solution is better.)

The victory of the right-wing opposition – GERB – over the socialists of the prime minister Sergei Stanishev at the elections for the EU parliament in Bulgaria are a sign of future difficulties in the formation of the next governmental coalition after the parliamentary elections on July 5th, announced AFP.
Neither the opposition, nor the ruling coalition had an absolute majority of the votes in these elections, which are defined as the "first half of the game", announced the agency.
The winners in the elections – the party of the Sofia mayor Boiko Borisov GERB (24,8%) will have to come to an agreement with the Blue coalition (7,99%) and at least two other new, smaller parties, that couldn't get in the European Parliament but had at least 4% – the barrier to enter the Bulgarian Parliament.
The ruling coalition also had just a little over 40% of the votes. The socialists have 18,59%, and their alies from DPS and NDSV have 14,21% and 8% respectively.
NDSV owes it's success mostly to the European Commissar Meglena Kuneva, who was at the top of their list, notes AFP.

Q: Visual Studio extension - Inheritance class diagram In Visual studio 2013, we have an option to "view the class diagram" for a single project where it shows the inheritance relationships(hierarchy).
In my application, I have base classes in one project & derived classes in another.
Is there any extension that can automatically generate the class diagram with inheritance relationship among multiple projects?

A: Old question but it could still be relevant for others.
There's a Visual Studio extension called Quick Diagram that can generate type inheritance diagrams that are not limited to a single project. The types can be anywhere in the solution, in any project (in source code or in referenced metadata).
It can be found here: link
It's free, open source. However it does not support VS2013 only VS2015.

Man shot in clash over ox slaughtering dies
The clash occurred between the locals of Kamatoli and police on Wednesday.

A man who sustained a wound from a bullet fired by police in Jhapa on Wednesday has died in the course of treatment.
Rafiq-ul Alam, 38, died at B&C Medical College Teaching Hospital in Birtamod on Wednesday evening, said Chief District Officer of Jhapa Udaya Bahadur Magar.
Alam was shot on his back during a clash between police personnel and the locals of Kamatoli over the issue of ox slaughter.
"The police started firing at us and a bullet went right through my brother's back. There was blood everywhere," Alam's brother Samsul Haque said.
The critically injured Alam was rushed to Birtamod for treatment.
Police Inspector Sachan Shrestha from the Area Police Office in Kumarkhod claimed that the police team was compelled to fire warning shots into the air to disperse the hostile mob.
"A police officer was also critically injured in the incident. He is undergoing treatment at the Birtamod-based hospital," said Shrestha.
According to the District Police Office, the clash ensued when the locals of Kamatoli on Wednesday obstructed a police vehicle in Jhapa Rural Municipality Ward No.3 from taking two individuals arrested for ox slaughtering to the District Court. Police personnel at the incident site had opened fire in retaliation to the angry mob, the office said.
Meanwhile, the deceased's family said that Alam was not involved in the ox slaughter incident. Haque, who is also an eye witness to the incident, said, "My brother was a tractor driver in Resunga. He had just arrived at Kamatoli bazaar after working a day in Resunga. When the commotion broke out in the bazaar area and the police started firing warning shots, we tried to flee the scene. That's when a bullet struck my brother."
Alam's friends, family members and the local community of Kamatoli have refused to receive his body. They have demanded that Alam be declared a martyr and police issue an apology.
"We won't receive the body until our demand is addressed," Mohammad Tahir, a local leader, said.
On Thursday, an all party meeting held in the District Administration Office in Jhapa decided to provide Rs 50,000 to Alam's family to perform his funeral rites. The meeting also agreed to demand Rs 1 million as compensation from the provincial government and perform postmortem of the deceased.
A probe committee led by the Assistant Chief District Officer Umesh Pandey was formed on Thursday to investigate the incident.
Alam is survived by his wife and five children. He was the sole breadwinner of his family.

Delhi to generate 1,000 MW solar power by 2019
New Delhi: Delhi will generate 1,000 megawatt (MW) of solar power by 2019 which will also help bring down electricity rates, state Health Minister Satyendra Jain said on Friday.
"During the peak hours, there is a demand of about 6,500 MW and during the non-peak hours, it comes down to 3,500 MW. By 2019, Delhi will start producing 1,000 MW of clean energy," Jain told media here.
"All the three discoms of Delhi have been finally been convinced about this after the government spoke to them for about five to six months," he said.
About five lakh people will benefit from this, he said.
Jain said that fossil fuel power plants that burn carbon fuels such coal, oil or gas to generate electricity produce huge amounts of pollution and thus there is a need to use clean energy.
He also said the solar power project would help in lowering electricity rates in the city, where Rs 5.95 per unit is charged for consumption between 210 and 400 units.
"We are expecting these rates to go down to Rs 3 per unit," Jain said, adding that solar pumps will be available at subsidised for the farmers here.
"Domestic electricity meter installation for small businesses open in homes in residential areas, with connections from 0 to 5 KW, will be considered," he added.
Delhi was the second-most polluted major city in the world, as per a WHO study last year.

Theresa May finally explains why she held hands with Donald Trump
The UK and the USA have always maintained that they enjoy a "special relationship" – but, in January, many were shocked when Prime Minister Theresa May was filmed walking hand in hand with President Donald Trump down a ramp at the White House.
Footage of the surreal moment quickly spread around the world, and May was criticised in some quarters for seeming passive next to a man who has bragged about invading women's personal space. The Labour MP Harriet Harman described "that handholding thing" as "disastrous, because it looked like he was leading her along."
However, in a new interview with US Vogue, May has spoken out about the incident for the first time – and she's reassured us that there's a far more innocent explanation.
Prepare your eye rolls now, folks, because Trump was apparently just "being a gentleman".
Read more: Theresa May subtly mocked Donald Trump's tiny hands
Laughing, May told her interviewer: "I think he was actually being a gentleman. We were about to walk down a ramp, and he said it might be a bit awkward."
She went on to explain that she and Trump enjoyed one another's company, adding: "I like to think we got on. I mean, obviously he has, uh . . . it was a stunning election victory, in that he's someone who has not been involved in politics."
However, when it came to revealing what she and Trump had spoken about during her visit to the States, May was less forthcoming.
"Well, I don't . . . ," she said. "We don't comment on private conversations that take place. All I would say is, I've been very clear: I'm not afraid to raise issues. And the nature of the relationship is such that we should be able to be frank and open with each other."
It's worth remembering that, before Trump was elected, May slammed him for his "unacceptable" comments about women. Perhaps, then, this was the issue she chose to raise with him during their time cloistered in the White House.

Earlier this year, May was accused of poking fun at Trump, singling out one of his biggest insecurities during a speech at the Black and White Ball.
Yes, we are, of course, referring to his smaller than average hands.
According to the Telegraph, the Prime Minister stood to rapturous applause, and smiled as she said: "Thank you very much for that wonderful reception.
"I don't think I have received such a big hand since I walked down the colonnade at the White House."
During the Vogue interview, May also talked about her relationship with her husband, Philip, and comparisons made between her and Margaret Thatcher's government.
"There can only ever be one Margaret Thatcher. I'm Theresa May. I do things my way," the PM said firmly.
May also addressed the controversial issue of her salary (she admitted she's paid £142,000 a year) and "trousergate", in which her choice of a pair of trousers worth £1,000 for an interview sparked a backlash.
"Look, throughout my political career, people have commented on what I wear," said May, when asked if she had been surprised by the public's reaction to her clothing choices. "That's just something that happens, and you accept that. But it doesn't stop me from going out and enjoying fashion.
"And I also think it's important to be able to show that a woman can do a job like this and still be interested in clothes."

A New Horizon: Universal Apostolic Preferences of the Society of Jesus
By Marcel Uwineza SJ1
A new horizon for discernment in common, guidance and orientation for apostolic planning of the Society of Jesus' resources at all levels was ushered in on February 19, 2019 by Fr. Arturo Sosa's promulgation of the new Universal Apostolic Preferences (UAPs). These preferences are: (1) Promoting Discernment and the Spiritual Exercises; (2) Walking with the Excluded; (3) Journeying with Youth; and (4) Caring for our Common Home.
A Perspective on Discernment and "Spiritual Exercises" : Universal Apostolic Preference 1
Amadi Eziokwubundu SJ | Communications Coordinator at ITCJ
I was in company of a group of university students the day after Father General promulgated the Universal Apostolic Preference. Talks on discernment and spiritual exercises, one of the four apostolic preferences, make rare appearances in our conversations. When I informed the group that the Jesuits have elected to give more priority to discernment and the Spiritual Exercises for the next ten years, an eerie silence fell upon the group as though a common judgement has come upon us.

Cyclone Idai: A tragedy, a lesson, and demonstration of human solidarity
By Anold Moyo, SJ | Silveira House - Harare
"Tragedy is a tool for the living to gain wisdom, not a guide by which to live." These words from Robert Kennedy continue to ring true and give hope in the disaster that has befallen Southern Africa in the wake of Cyclone Idai. On 14 March 2019, Cyclone Idai, with wind speeds of over 170 km/hr and rainfall of up to 406mm in a day (Chisengu Estate Chimanimani), made landfall at Beira, moving on into Eastern Zimbabwe and Malawi. For scale, it is useful to note that in other areas of the Limpopo basin, annual average rainfall is 400mm.

With the end of the American-Vietnam war came an exodus of two million Vietnamese fleeing the ravaged nation.

Between 1975 and 1995, almost 800,000 refugees landed in Hong Kong, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia, but their arrival was just the start of the long saga of the "Boat People." Already traumatized by the horrors of war in their home country, the Vietnamese refugees found their fates uncertain as their future was negotiated by countries who wanted nothing to do with refugees.
Father General visits Mgr Munzihirwa Centre in Central Africa Province (ACE)
Opening the future to young people injured by life
By Pierre Bélanger, S.J.
"The Society of Jesus wants, with an ardent desire, to walk with young people towards a future full of hope". This is the challenge that the Mgr Munzihirwa Centre faces in the supervision and training of street children, but also of unemployed young people. Stanislas Kimpeye, presented the work he leads to Father General and the Provincials of the Conference of Africa and Madagascar who accompanied him. At the same time, it highlighted the links between the CMM's perspectives and two of the Society's apostolic preferences: to walk with the excluded and to accompany the young.

Cases Of Rabies On The Increase Tema West
/ Social, News
The Tema West Municipality has reported four cases of rabies in dogs and a goat at Community Five, Dr Emmanuel Kwao Pecku, the Municipal Veterinary Officer has disclosed.
The reported cases, which were recorded over ten months, consist of three dogs and a goat and 151 in dog bite cases spanning January to July 2021 in the Municipality.
Dr Pecku, who spoke during a media engagement at the Ghana News Agency in Tema said, there were likely to be more unreported cases in the municipality, adding that, for instance, the reported case of the goat, was bitten by a stray rabid dog that was killed but never reported to his outfit.
That, he indicated, had necessitated a vaccination exercise in the Tema Region to vaccinate animals including monkeys, dogs, and cats, and to promote human rabies prevention through the elimination of rabies, particularly in dogs.
He said rabies, a viral zoonotic disease, caused progressive and fatal inflammation of the brain and spinal cord and affected animals and humans globally including Ghana.
He explained that rabid animals, over the period, had bitten their owners or people, resulting in human cases, and explained that vaccinating animals could successfully disrupt the rabies transmission cycle.
Dr Pecku said the viral disease, although 100 per cent fatal once clinical signs appeared, was avoidable through vaccination to prevent such deaths associated with it, adding that approximately 99 per cent of rabies were acquired from the bite of an infected dog.
According to him, dog-mediated human rabies could be prevented by tackling the disease at its source - infected dogs, and making people more aware of how to avoid the bites of rabid dogs and seek treatment when bitten.
The Municipal Veterinary Officer said, early symptoms of a rabies infection included; fever with pain and unusual or unexplained tingling, pricking, or burning sensation at the wound site, and in later stages, the virus spread to the central nervous system, causing fatal inflammation of the brain and spinal cord.
The incubation period of the disease can vary from one week to one year, though it is typically two to three months.
He said, "if a dog is infected by rabies, the virus multiplies in the nerves and goes into the salivary glands and is excreted as saliva, so if an infected dog or cat bites or scratches you, it creates an opening and the virus passes through the saliva and goes into your body."
Dr Pecku said the signs would begin to show depending on the amount of virus that was released at the wounded site and the closeness of the spinal or the brain, adding that, for the first week, the virus would multiply around the site.
"That is why we advise that as a first aid when you have a dog bite, the wounded area is washed thoroughly with running water to reduce the amount of virus at the site of the bite," he said and explained that once it was a positive case, a health facility is alerted for a vaccine to be administered.
Vaccines, he added, when administered would take two weeks for antibodies to form for protection, adding that hemoglobin antibodies are injected at the site of the bite before the vaccines are given.
"When that is not done, the virus multiplies, travels, and hits the nerves and at that point, no medication can save the victim," he said and emphasized that there were instances where people took vaccines but still died because they took it rather late.

How much is a championship worth? The soccer pay gap by the numbers
by: John Dabkovich
(KXAN) — Sports fans love to debate. But when it comes to women's soccer, there is no debate: The US Women's National Team is the best in the world.
How much that's worth is the subject of a lot of debate.
One side says the women win more, so they deserve more money. The other side says the men generate more revenue, so they deserve more. The problem is U.S. Soccer doesn't break it down like that.
Their 2018 financial statement shows total revenue of $102 million. It doesn't say how much came from the men and how much came from the women. That's because U.S. Soccer sells marketing packages and broadcast rights, which make up the bulk of revenue, as a bundle. If you buy one team, you buy both.
Members of the USWNT are suing US Soccer for discrimination. In their lawsuit, they claim a women's team member makes a little more than $100,000 over a 20-game span, compared to $265,000 for a men's team player — a 62% gap.
The Washington Post analyzed the collective bargaining agreement between the USWNT and US Soccer and found that claim to be true under the old agreement, but the pay gap under the new agreement signed in 2017 is 11%.
What about the World Cup?
The World Cup is a different beast and the gap between men and women is huge. FIFA, soccer's governing body around the world, runs the tournament and pays out prize money based on where a team finishes in the tournament.
The U.S. men failed to qualify for the 2018 World Cup in Russia. That year's winner, France, took home $38 million, part of which is filtered down to players in the form of bonuses.
The U.S. women will get $4 million for their latest win.
Unlike U.S. Soccer, FIFA's financial report reveals which events bring in the most money. FIFA reported $2.5 billion in revenue in 2018 (last men's World Cup), compared to $260 million in 2015, the year of the last women's World Cup. That same report shows, between 2015-2018, FIFA collected $3.1 billion in broadcast rights fees — 95% came from the Men's World Cup
In response to the lawsuit, US Soccer says they are only passing on the prize money from FIFA. Attorneys for the USWNT members argued that, just because FIFA pays women less, that doesn't mean US Soccer has to, as well.
USWNT gaining leverage
Winning back-to-back World Cup's brings considerable fame. Last month, Nike's CEO said the USWNT jersey became the top-selling soccer jersey ever sold on their website in one season, men or women — and that was before they won their fourth Cup.
Congress is also taking notice. 50 members of the House Democratic Women's Caucus signed a letter to the head of US Soccer, urging him to eliminate the pay gap.
The current collective bargaining agreement between U.S. Soccer and the women's team runs through 2021.

(WPSD) — Kentucky's McCracken County sheriff says the teens who threw fireworks at a deputy's home early Monday morning likely knew a law enforcement officer lives there.
The sheriff's department released surveillance video which shows the suspects standing in a cul-de-sac, lighting mortars and then throwing them. Another surveillance camera then captured the mortars exploding in front of the deputy's home, near the door. It all happened around 3:40 a.m. Monday.
by Associated Press / Jul 17, 2019
(AP) — Texas Rep. Al Green has introduced articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump, potentially forcing a vote this week on whether to remove the president from office.
The vote would come too soon for most Democrats, as a majority of the caucus appears to oppose impeachment, for now. But Green is seeking to capitalize on a growing sentiment for impeachment in the wake of Trump's racist tweets over the weekend.

Horsetrader.com News » Article » How can I help my horses get along when they're eating?
1. Begin by separating your horses.
2. Enter Koda's pen and make sure you can move her around and away from you by simply kissing her off. If she doesn't move away quickly and willingly, then chase her off while spanking the ground first and her second—until she gets the idea. You should be able to kiss her off without any second thoughts on her part before moving on to the next step. How assertive you will need to be will depend on how quickly she responds.
3. Repeat Step 2, except with food in her stall. Allow her to focus on her eating before chasing her off . Repeat this process until it's easy for Koda to leave her food instantly.
4. Repeat Steps 1, 2, and 3, with Eddie. Even though Eddie is the one that was being chased, we want to make sure that he runs away instead of holding his ground and getting kicked. Both horses need to learn how to go to their respective corners after the bell.
5. Place each horse in adjoining stalls. It's important that they have a common divider between them. If this is not available, simply place one horse in the stall (preferably the aggressive one)and place the other outside. Get a 25-foot rope (or longer) and run it around a post of the panel outside the stall and to Eddie's halter. You are going to need to be able to draw Eddie in close to the panel as well as allow him to retreat when necessary.
6. It's now time to throw a flake of hay into the stall where the aggressive horse, Koda, is stabled. It is important that the flake is strategically placed directly below the post that we are using as a pulley, where the rope was threaded through. Have a helper draw the horse outside the pen (Eddie), close up to the divider the moment Koda is deep into her meal. It is important, Ryla, that you are timely with your warning (kissing) as well as your consequence the moment any signs of negative behavior appear. Take care not to get kicked.
7. This step is key to the success of this exercise. Remember, we are looking for an excuse to reward—not to punish. Chasing off your horse is a rewardable exercise, not punishment. Your intention and body language should express exactly that. More importantly, any negative expression on the part of Koda should be perceived as her own cute little way of asking you to please chase her off (HARD) and tell her she is a good girl. This will only preserve the positive relationship between you two and will teach her to think as opposed to react.
8. You can now have your horses switch places and start all over again.
9. This next step is the moment of truth. It all comes down to a judgment call—yours. Testing the lesson without the divider will require you to feed your horses on opposite ends of the pen. If all goes well, move the two portions of food closer and closer together until something changes. Continue this process until there is no issue.
10. This last step is what will guarantee that your horses will do the right thing even when you are not there, because they think you are.
As soon as you feed them, walk away around a corner where you can't be seen and sneak a peek and listen. The fi rst excuse they give you to reward them, do so by kissing loudly before you come around the corner. This allows the horse to hold that thought until you get there. This helps them put 2 and 2 together. Continue this until you think they've got it.
Ryla, you may want to practice feeding Koda and Eddie on opposite ends of the pen when you can't be there to supervise, at least for a while.

RESOLVED that the appeals were noted.
35/16 The Evacuation Procedure was noted.
36/16 The Chair informed Members of the Committee and Members of the Public that the Planning Committee meeting was to be recorded as part of the Council's commitment to legislation permitting the public recording of public meetings, and in the interests of ensuring the Council conducted its business in an open and transparent manner. These recordings would be made available to the public via the Council's website. Members of the public present who preferred not to be filmed/recorded/photographed, were asked to make it known so that so far as reasonably possible, the appropriate arrangements could be made to ensure that they were not filmed, recorded or photographed.
37/16 Councillor Elsi Hampton declared a personal and non prejudicial interest in relation to item 15/1643/OUT Land South Of Kirklevington, Thirsk Road, Kirklevington. Councillor Hampton informed the Committee that she was an unpaid church warden at the local church, St Martin and St Hilary, Kirklevington. The church had submitted comments in relation to the application; however the church had taken a neutral position in respect to planning issues. Councillor Hampton explained that she had not taken part in any discussions relating to the application and there were minutes to prove this. Councillor Hamptons husbands name did however appear within some documentation relating to discussion about the application however it was in respect to submitting the comments on behalf of the church as he was secretary of the local parochial church council, which was an unpaid position that Councillor Hamptons husband no longer held. Councillor Hampton was not predetermined and reserved the right to speak and vote on the item.
38/16 The Chair informed the Committee that a number of Committee Members had approached her raising concerns in relation to the lack of information surrounding transport and the movement of vehicles. A deferral had been requested by those Members.
In addition Planning Officers were in receipt of correspondence from the Office of National Case Work Planning Unit who advise on behalf of the Secretary of State. They had advised that they had received a third party request to call in the application for determination by the Secretary of State. The Local Planning Authority has formally agreed to not issue a decision on this application if it is minded to approve in order to allow the secretary of state to consider whether or not they want to call in the application. The Secretary of State will only seek to call in the application if the application conflicts with National Planning Policy in important ways or if it is nationally significant.
A motion to defer the item was made and seconded. A vote took place and the motion was carried to defer the item.
39/16 Consideration was given to a report on planning application 16/1024/REM Land South Of Cayton Drive, Thornaby.
Planning permission was sought for the reserved matters of Scale, Access, Layout, Appearance and Landscaping associated with the approved outline planning permission for up to 45 dwellings on the site at Thornaby which was approved on appeal.
A number of objections had been received in respect to the application, the main ones being about the principle of development on the site, the additional traffic, the proximity of new dwellings to existing dwellings and the impacts on privacy and amenity as well as impacts on wildlife. A single submission of support was received.
The principle of development had already been established under the earlier application and could not be re-considered as part of this application. The proposal showed 2 storey dwellings in a street layout, having front and rear gardens and private drives all of which was generally in keeping with the existing residential area to the north. The proposed dwellings had been positioned to prevent any direct overlooking with existing dwellings and would maintain a degree of openness. Landscaping within the site would largely be within defined gardens and private curtilages and would support the existing tree belt to the south. Properties had been positioned away from the maturing tree belt to the south which would ensure adequate levels of amenity for the future occupiers.
The Highways, Transport and Environment Team had accepted the access into the site and the internal road layout and parking provision.
The development was approved under an earlier outline application. Matters of ecology, impact on green wedge and the Tees Heritage Park were all considerations of the earlier application and did not have a bearing on the detailed considerations of this application for reserved matters.
The consultees that had been notified and the comments that had been received were detailed within the main report.
Neighbours were notified and the comments received were detailed within the main report.
With regard to planning policy where an adopted or approved development plan contained relevant policies, Section 38(6) of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 required that an application for planning permissions should be determined in accordance with the Development Plan(s) for the area, unless material considerations indicated otherwise. In this case the relevant Development Plan was the Core Strategy Development Plan Document and saved policies of the Stockton on Tees Local Plan.
Section 143 of the Localism Act came into force on the 15 Jan 2012 and required the Local Planning Authority to take local finance considerations into account, this section s70(2) Town and Country Planning Act 1990 as amended required in dealing with such an application [planning application] the authority should have regard to a) the provisions of the development plan, so far as material to the application, b) any local finance considerations, so far as material to the application and c) any other material considerations.
The planning policies that were considered to be relevant to the consideration of the application were contained within the main report.
The Planning Officers report concluded that the proposed development was considered to represent a suitable layout which was in keeping with its surroundings, provided adequate access and which would not unduly impact on nearby residential properties in terms of privacy or amenity. It was recommended that the application be approved with conditions for the reasons as detailed within the main report.
Objectors were in attendance at the meeting and given the opportunity to make representation. Their comments could be summarised as follows:
- Concerns were raised in relation to there now only being one access road into the proposed new development, and the impact of additional traffic that the access road would endure. Previously, 2 access roads were included into the design however there was now just a single proposed access road which was a narrow street. This had raised concerns as to whether additional traffic would be able to pass through easily, especially at peak times, and including when residents were home and cars were parked on the road.
- Emergency vehicles needing to gain access to the proposed site had raised particular concerns, as previously there had been problems getting through whilst servicing the fire hydrants.
- Residents raised issues relating to the fact that the Developer had used out of date maps, which did not show the many number of extensions that the houses backing onto the proposed new development had. One objector informed the Committee that an extension that he had completed on his home in 1987 was not showing on the developer's plans, and therefore it was felt the developer had been misleading.
- In addition to the lack of detail contained within the maps resident's also felt that the maps made the gardens of the existing homes look longer than they actually were, therefore making the distance between the proposed new development and the existing houses seem further away. One objector stated that there was 7.5m from the rear of his home to his rear fence where a gable end was proposed to be built, this raised issues over the close proximity of the existing and proposed homes and the loss of natural sunlight, in particular during the winter months.
- The Committee were informed that Bader Ave, was the only access/exit road for 3 existing estates (Bader Estate, Bassledon Estate and the Brims Estate). Bader Ave was also part of the local bus route, and was the only access road to a parade of shops and popular Public House where many deliveries were made throughout the day by Heavy Goods Vehicles. Sporting events on The Harold Wilson Sports field also brought with it additional traffic. Issues were raised that Bader Ave was already a busy road and could not possibly take any additional traffic, including heavy duty vehicles whilst the proposed development was being built.
- Residents were concerned as to the impact the additional traffic would have on local children walking to the Primary School at the end of Bader Ave.
Councillor Ian Dalgarno, Ward Member for Village Ward in Thornaby was in attendance at the meeting and given the opportunity to make representation. His comments could be summarised as follows:
- The original plan had an access road in Middleton Avenue and Cayton Drive. If the access road was not put in on Middleton Avenue it would lead to chaos on Cayton Drive. It would mean a cul-de-sac development on what was already a cul-de-sac estate in Bassleton Court. It was understood that the reason which had been given for the second access not going ahead was that the developer did not own the land, a small strip which was known as a ransom strip, however the owners of the ransom strip were known to be Thirteen, a partner of Stockton Borough Council. Surely Stockton Borough Council could negotiate with Thirteen to buy this land, to enable a second access point.
- Councillor Dalgarno felt the figures which had been calculated to determine the increase in traffic were greatly underestimated.
- Councillor Dalgarno requested that the Committee defer the decision until the Developer agreed to put in the second access road.
- It was felt that if the Inspector had the current plans which had been submitted the application would not have been won on appeal.
The Applicants Agent was in attendance at the meeting and was given the opportunity to make representation. His comments could be summarised as follows:
- The outline application was granted at appeal, following refusal against its Officers recommendation. The Inspector granted full costs against the Council, due to unreasonable behaviour that was found in relation to that appeal.
- The appeal decision established that the site was in the urban area, and was not part of the green wedge, any visual impact to the heritage park would be very small. The Inspector concluded that the scheme met all 3 tests of sustainability and that the benefits of delivering housing far exceeded the concerns raised.
- The Inspector was judging the appeal on a matter of principle and was not judging the layout of the scheme or the ability of access to the site.
- Since moving on with more detailed design and further land searches it had been established that one of the access points was difficult to deliver due to land ownership issues. The Agent believed the land was owned by Places for People and not Thirteen. There was a ransom strip situation which was not something which could be proposed within the scheme. The Agent explained to the Committee that a second access was not possible and urged them not to defer the item further. The Developers Engineers and the Highways Engineers were perfectly comfortable with the single access and felt that it was adequate.
- A 15 metre buffer against the tree belt was included in the scheme. The Developer had done everything to stay as far away as possible from nearby properties. The proposed properties were to be gable side on to the existing properties to minimise any impact in relation to privacy. Hip rooves had been introduced to minimise the impact from sunlight and daylight. Minimum distances had been complied with as set out within the Councils own guidance.
Officers were given the opportunity to address the Committee in relation to issues/concerns raised. Their points could be summarised as follows:
- There seemed to be a lot of concern relating to the density of the scheme. Some of the earlier applications for the site had more units proposed, starting with 54 in 2013. The 2014 application saw a reduction to 50 and the current application was now 45. The Appeal Inspector when considering and allowing the outline permission talked about the loss of view, privacy and amenity. The Officer read out a statement from the Inspector which stated that ' The loss of a view is not a matter which can be afforded weight in land use planning terms so long as the impact of the development does not make an existing dwelling an unacceptable place to live. There are no details of the development before me and I have regard to the fact that gardens backing on to the site are relatively short, even so I am satisfied that it would be possible to design and locate dwellings which would not unacceptably detract from the living conditions of neighbouring occupants. In other words I would consider existing houses to the north, west and east will still provide attractive places to live'. The Developer and Officers looked at the application submitted with the view that the wooded tree belt to the south was a maturing tree belt which would grow. A lot of residents had put a lot of value on the tree belt and the wider area to the south, as had Officers. Houses clearly had to be separated from that tree belt to prevent a long term undue pressure of overshadowing which would result from a continuous band along the entire southern edge from the trees. Therefore if the houses were too close then there would be unreasonable amenity for those occupiers and those trees would get a lot of pressure for them to be removed. That had led to the current layout. The majority of the built form of the development was on the southern side furthest away from the existing houses. Were the development to be flipped, if it could be flipped, then you would end up with a long linear row of houses on the northern edge which would be closer to the existing residential properties. Clearly they would be slightly further away from where the existing ones were shown, but currently there were large gaps between the rear elevations of the northern row of properties. Officers were satisfied that it met the normal distances expected, in fact it went slightly beyond that in the majority of cases.
- There was no tree planting of any significance on the northern boundary.
- Properties on the northern edge were side on to existing properties therefore the views would be at right angles therefore only oblique overlooking not direct overlooking if it was rear to rear situation.
- In relation to traffic comments made. The traffic impact of the development was considered as part of the principle at the outline stage therefore was not something which could be revisited at this stage. The traffic was looked at as part of that and it was accepted that up to 45 dwellings would not have an adverse traffic impact on the highway and was not used as a reason for refusal by Members. Outline permission had now been given which included the impact of up to 45 dwellings.
- In terms of the access, at outline stage there was an indication that there were potentially 2 locations where access could be achieved. That was possibly a combination of 2 accesses or an either or access which had been accepted and agreed. There was no minimum number of dwellings which could be served by a single access.
- Where issues had been raised relating to parked vehicles on the access route, this was something which happened all over the borough and all over the country. Stockton Borough Council spoke regularly with bus operators and emergency services and this location had not been identified as a problematic area. On that basis there could be no objection to the single access.
Members were given the opportunity to ask questions/make comments on the application and these could be summarised as follows:
- Members raised concerns in relation to the access. It was felt that even though it may be adequate to have a single access to the proposed development, maybe it was the wrong single access and that Middleton Avenue was the correct one and this required further investigation.
- Cayton Drive was an area where there was double parking, and as yet the Fire Brigade would not have looked at this road as an access road as the development was not yet built, therefore it was not part of their route for checking.
- In terms of the layout, Members felt that a gable end at the end of existing resident's gardens was not acceptable. A back to back approach was a much friendlier option.
- Concerns were raised in relation to the fact that the plans were out of date and lacked the detail of existing resident's extensions going back as far as 1987 nearly 40 years ago. The site may get a development on it however it had to be the right development that fit in with the current nature of houses which were already there.
- The diagrams shown seemed to show the development in the best possible light for the developer and not a true reflection of what was actually there. It was felt the Committee should not be presented with out of date inaccurate plans, if google maps was laid over the top of the plans it would give a truer picture of how close the development was to existing homes.
- Members felt that on appeal the Inspector was looking at a different scheme compared to the one which was being presented today. A scheme with two not one access road and the belief that there would be wider spaces between the new development and the existing houses due to the out of date drawings.
- In relation to the ransom strip, although this was a problem to the property developer it was felt that this should be explored further for local benefit and until this had been done the application should be deferred.
- Questions were raised in relation to whether any conversations had been had with the developer and the owners of the ransom strip? Could the strip be adopted by the Council or sold to the developer? Had any of this been properly explored?
- There didn't seem to be any garages indicated on the plan which in turn indicated that there would be a considerable amount of on-street parking.
- In terms of the issues raised relating to garages and on-street parking, it was confirmed that some property types would have integral garages and some would not have any. The development did meet the supplementary planning document 3, car parking and new developments standards; therefore there was adequate car parking on site.
A motion to defer the application was made and seconded. A vote then took place and the deferral was approved.
A request was made by Members that more accurate and detailed plans were submitted when the applications was to be resubmitted.
40/16 - Concerns were raised in relation to the Appeal - Land at Harrowgate Lane, Bishopsgarth, Stockton On Tees and the impact on the surrounding area relating to increase in traffic etc. The Chairman explained that the developer had agreed to a number of requests by the Committee prior to the appeal and it was therefore felt that the development would not adversely impact as much as anticipated. It was confirmed that the development was part of the Masterplan.
- In relation to the Appeal - Car Park to Rear of 51 Mandale Road, Thornaby, Stockton on Tees, a question was raised as to how long the applicant would have to remove the catering trailer? Officers believed enforcement had already been issued for the trailer to be removed however would confirm this directly with the Member raising the issue.

Canadian Pacific CEO: We will get better
MINOT -- Hunter Harrison, CEO of Canadian Pacific Railway, showed his pride and disappointment in his railroad's ability to move North Dakota grain in a meeting Aug. 11 with shippers and two U.S. senators in Minot.
MINOT - Hunter Harrison, CEO of Canadian Pacific Railway, showed his pride and disappointment in his railroad's ability to move North Dakota grain in a meeting Aug. 11 with shippers and two U.S. senators in Minot.
But Harrison also showed a fiery, defiant side - defending against what he said are sometimes inaccurate or misplaced reports of his railroad's shortcomings.
Harrison denied that his elevator was behind 22,000 cars as reports to the U.S. Surface Transportation Board indicate. The STB reports show only 5 percent improvement since June, and cars are still waiting 10.5 weeks.
Harrison said his railroad might be "effectively caught up," in its ag orders, despite reports to the contrary. With the company's existing open order system that allows double-booking with consequences, it is impossible to know, he said.
Harrison noted that his railroad only handles 20 to 25 percent of North Dakota's grain in a normal year, so the majority of the problem is more directly connected to Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway, which met with the congressional delegation and shippers last week.
New ordering plan
CP is in the process of creating a new ordering system that prevents double-ordering and institutes new penalties - both for grain elevators and for the railroad - if either fails to perform.
"There has to be some skin in the game," he said. CP has been working on the system since early this summer and elevator operators in the meeting said they'd been told the system was to have taken effect around Aug. 1.
Harrison said the system is dealing with two large customers in the state to determine whether they'll accept the changes that allow for penalties on outstanding trains.
"Hopefully these contracts can get resolved, and if not we'll move to Plan B," Harrison said.
"I promise you personally … we will get this situation better and we will develop some forum, newsletter or something" to keep shippers and others informed.
Sen. John Hoeven, R-N.D., said officials need more meaningful numbers and then a short- and long-term plan to improve things.
Harrison said his railroad has plans to invest $150 million in infrastructure in the next three years, but said part of that is allocated to safer train crossing technology that was put in place after a railroad incident in California caused by human error.
But he also said his company is not short of rails or equipment, but sometimes short of people. In part, he said, because of competition with the oil industry.
He was optimistic that a labor contract can be ratified soon that might relieve some of the problems.
Sen. Heidi Heitkamp, D-N.D., who has been pressing for better communications on the rail issues, said the problems are real, and have big impacts. She referenced a North Dakota State University study that indicated farmers in the state had lost $66 million because of increased "basis" and other market consequences.
Heitkamp said she's confident those losses since the report have climbed above $100 million.
Among the other shippers with specific complaints was Keith Deutsch, a Plaza farmer and director of the Plaza-Makoti Equity Elevator, who said his co-op hasn't seen a rail car since May 24.
"We've only gotten 80 cars since Jan. 1," he said.
"I don't like what I hear," Harrison said. "It's because sometimes the truth hurts. We base a lot of our company values on service and this does not fit what we'd like to hear, in spite of weather and all of that stuff. It's in our interest to get a lot of grain moved here."

This blog post is completely out of my normal sphere, but I feel that it is an important issue and one that hasn't had as much publicity as it needs.
We all know by now that the NHS is being systematically destroyed by the Government. Cuts are being made everywhere and with varying chunks of the NHS being sold off to the higher bidder, the NHS we all knew is no longer.
This matter has been well documented both in the press and on the various forms of social media. What hasn't had as much publicity is the cuts being made to the legal aid system for criminal matters and the ways in which the justice system is being changed.
While you think that these changes may not affect you, that you don't intend to commit any crimes, remember that innocent people can be arrested just as easily as guilty ones. Let it also be remembered that it the cuts are deemed "successful" by the Government, then the same system will be rolled out to family cases.
At the moment if you have been arrested you are able choose a solicitor of your preference, be it someone who you already know and trust or someone that has been recommended to you in the knowledge that they will represent your interests fairly and provide you with the correct advice.
What the changes will institute is that upon arrest, if you are in need of legal aid, rather than having own solicitor attend you will provided with a duty solicitor who will also have any number of cases aside from yours to deal with. Apart from the obvious delays in being seen that this will cause, with the duty solicitor having a constant and large stream of people to see, you are never going to get more than a few minutes with them.
If you are charged with the offence and subsequently bailed, this would ordinarily be the time, if you hadn't got someone in mind already, that you would be instructing your own solicitor to assist you or asking for a recommendation of the best person in the area. Once the changes have come into effect however, you will be forced to stay with the firm you were first allocated with, whether they specialise in that particular area of criminal law or not. You will now be forced to stay with the firm you have been allotted, who have essentially just been chosen because they are the cheapest. In my books, the cheapest is not usually the best quality.
With the majority of people no longer being even eligible for legal aid, they will be forced to either represent themselves or face the legal bills themselves.
This will lead to many miscarriages of justice whereby you can't afford to get legal advice and thereby you are unable to properly represent your case at Court which may well lead to a conviction through no fault of your own.
Solicitors who you might previously have gotten some free advice from may no longer be open, as the changes with the legal aid, along with the new rules in civil litigation have forced many firms into closing and putting their employees out of work.
Let's just hope that law firms increase their pro-bono time to help people in need!
The unfortunate matter is that by the government clamping down on legal aid and civil fees means that many solicitors firms are being forced to close down with many jobs lost. Pro bono work is only possible from the very large firms who can afford to do so.
This is going to affect so many people but I don't think that many actually realise, or they won't at least until it happens.


Some of life's storms come upon us suddenly. Such storms could be job loss, family illness or death, financial difficulty, accidents, or pestilence. In the midst of storm, we are scared and we cry out to God and pray earnestly. If God does not give any apparent response or delay His help, we may ask, does Jesus care?
God works in our lives. He tests our faith in order that we might grow. In the midst of life's storm, we shall remind ourselves that Jesus is Lord and He controls. He will take us through the storm if we let God take control and surrender to Him. By allowing God to do His work, we will reap the benefit of an increase in our faith. So why are we still so afraid of storms when we know that it is in the storm that God comforts and strengthens us, and equips us for service?

Spring in Algonquin Park comes later than surrounding areas as a result of the Park's higher elevations. When snow and ice have left Toronto or Ottawa, Algonquin Park is often still very wintry. Ice on Algonquin's lakes usually remains until the last week of April or the first week of May. The average date for ice out on Lake Opeongo in Algonquin Park is April 28 (1964 - 2016).
Algonquin Park has some of the best Brook Trout and Lake Trout fishing in Ontario. In some years, anglers hoping to head into the backcountry for their first Brook Trout or Lake Trout fishing trip are delayed by iced lakes or impassible Access Point road conditions (e.g. deep snow, mud, washouts, etc.). Many anglers now delay their trip until a week or two after the opening of trout fishing season to ensure ice free conditions and easy access.
Algonquin Park is a very special fishery and thus has special regulations to ensure the protection of the Park's fragile fisheries. If you will be fishing in Algonquin Park, ensure you are aware of the Park's special fisheries regulations including a ban on the possession (and use) of live baitfish.
Spring offers the year's best Moose viewing and you typically don't have to search very hard to see Moose. The application of salt to Highway 60 during winter road maintenance operations, attracts Moose to roadside ditches. Moose with salt deficient winter diets, capitalize upon this unnatural source of salt and chances are you'll see a half dozen or more of these magnificent animals during a leisurely drive along Highway 60 on a May morning or evening.
Moose (and other wildlife) pose a serious danger to drivers. Stay alert as Moose can be on the road or standing in roadside ditches and are often surprisingly hard to see. Each year Moose and other wildlife are killed in vehicle collisions. Reduce your speed (especially at night) and help save the lives of Algonquin Park's Moose and possibly even your own.
If you see a Moose, pull onto the shoulder and off the traveled portion of the road and turn on your hazard lights to warn other drivers. If drivers flash their vehicle headlights at you in Algonquin Park, there's a good chance a Moose is ahead or maybe even a "Moose Jam" (a traffic jam caused by Moose watchers).
If you exit the vehicle, watch for traffic and ensure you keep a safe distance from wildlife. If you are watching a Moose and it flattens its ears the length of its body (rather than ears pointing to the sky), you are too close and you should back up. Learn more about wildlife watching in Algonquin Park.
Check The Friends of Algonquin Park's Facebook Page for spring Moose images and sightings.
Stay tuned for spring workshops coming soon.
From late April into May, a select group of wildflowers called "spring ephemerals" grow and bloom in the brief window between the spring snow melt and leaf-out of the overhead canopy of trees. Once the canopy has filled in, very little light reaches the forest floor and many of these wildflowers go into dormancy until the next year, staying alive as a rootstock underground. Algonquin Park's interpretive walking trails are a great location to observe spring wildflowers.
During the first few weeks of May, take in the beauty and subtle hues of Algonquin's spring colours. Enjoy the pastel green of Trembling Aspen leaves, the pink wash of distant Red Maples, the white of cherry blossoms, and the silvery puffs of the Largetooth Aspen.
Spring is the time of blackflies and mosquitoes in Algonquin. Biting insects typically emerge in late-May and can remain abundant until late-June. In wet years, mosquitoes remain throughout the summer in shady wet areas and also emerge at dusk to feed. Learn how to prepare yourself against these biting insects so you can enjoy a spring visit to Algonquin.
Teachers, clubs, and other groups may wish to take advantage of the Group Education Program offered through The Friends of Algonquin Park. Programs are available for all age groups and offered in half-day, full-day and sleepover formats and focus on the natural and cultural history of Algonquin Park.
Various Park facilities open at different times of the year to accommodate an increasing number of visitors during the spring/early summer season. See the Events Calendar for exact dates and times, but general opening dates are listed below.
Your safety in Algonquin Park – as elsewhere – is ultimately your responsibility. Be prepared!
A spring visit requires special care and attention. A last blast of winter can surprise unprepared visitors sometimes into May. Cold water in the first month or so of the open water season can be deadly. Use care with paddling on icy cold water.
When using portages and interpretive trails, be cautious about fall trees, flooded conditions and other hazards and backcountry rangers or interpretive trail crews need time to clear winter hazards such as fallen trees blocking portages or trails.
As with other times of the year, cellular telephone coverage is not Park-wide; generally it is limited to 3 kilometres on each side of Highway 60 and, even in this area, service can be "none" to "limited."
