Pieter Donk Ltd Painting Contractors strive to provide the best quality workmanship and outstanding customer service using environmentally responsible techniques in the most cost effective manner.
Established in Hawkes Bay since 1955, this family owned business is now in its third generation.
We are accredited Resene Eco Decorators ensuring quality systems that are sustainable and environmentally safe.
Sustainable decorating is more than just choossing a Evironmental Choice approved paint. It is also making sure that it is applied in an environmentally responsible manner following sustainable principles.


The Library is beginning to take shape now that the new floor covering is down and the desk, property of the late John Nutter, has been installed. There is quite a lot still to do positioning shelves and re-stacking them with the books and magazines that had been removed from them. All the items will be catalogued, numbered and entered onto a computer during the restacking process.
The Library benefits from donations of books, magazines and all forms of literature from Members and their families. Often we are asked to accept a collection from the estate of a past Member, either to care for it or as a gift. The contents are audited and recorded, and in the case of gifted duplications a request is made to the donor that we are permitted to sell the duplications to benefit the Foundation or the donor keeps the duplicates and sells them themselves.
Bentley Motors send us regular supplies of Brochures and Sales Literature, Authors send us copies of their books, and Newspaper cuttings of relevance are always of interest.
Help is always needed for this kind of work and it falls to the Archive Working Party members to do it. If you are able to help for a few hours a month please contact Will Morrison or Alan Bodfish at Wroxton.

Center for Immigration Studies fellow and former Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) official Dan Cadman writes that the Trump-endorsed First Step Act will make it more difficult for federal officials to deport criminal foreigners from the U.S.
In his analysis, Cadman explains that the prison reform plan allows criminal illegal aliens, immigrants, and nonimmigrants to rack up "good time" credits to receive an early release from prison until their final order of removal is obtained.
The prison reform bill also allows criminal illegal aliens who have repeatedly re-entered the U.S. illegally to participate in programs to reduce their time in prison.
The prison reform plan, as noted by Cadman, will also allow criminal illegal aliens to be placed in prisons that are within 500 miles of where they were illegally residing and allows deportable criminals to be considered as "low risk" so they can be allowed to stay in home confinement rather than finishing out their sentence in prison.
Another element of the First Step Act is to collect enormous amounts of data on the prison population. But, when it comes to collecting data on the criminal foreign prison population, the legislation only requires that the total prison headcount of criminal foreigners be tallied.
Questions regarding the criminal foreign population's age, gender, nationality, criminal offense, and immigration status would continue to go unanswered and unrecorded for the public.
Among the conservative beltway, there is a concerted effort to get Trump-supporting pundits and organizations on board with the First Step Act, despite concerns from the law enforcement community about the legislation.
The plan has been heralded by the New York Times editorial board as a bipartisan effort between the Republican establishment and the Democrats. Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR), has refused to back down on his opposition to the prison reform effort, despite attacks from his colleagues.
Nearly 95 percent of foreign nationals in federal prison are illegal aliens,while the Bureau of Prisons data has revealed that about 1-in-5 inmates are foreign-born. There are close to 40,000 criminal illegal and legal immigrants incarcerated in federal prisons across the country, making up about 21 percent of the total federal prison population. Nearly all of those inmates are from Central and South America, resulting in a cost to U.S. taxpayers of about $1.4 billion every year.


100% of our adoption fees go to the care and well-being of our dogs. The fact is that the cost of our operation exceeds the adoption fees that we collect. We rely on the generosity of our loyal supporters to make up the difference, along with a limited number of grants. In our 20+ years of operation no officer, director or volunteer of our organization has ever been compensated in any way.
Few rescues or public shelters provide the level of veterinary care and rehabilitation for their animals that we do at PRH.
Based upon the cost of obtaining similar services from a commercial veterinarian, our adoption fees are a bargain ~ and most often do NOT cover the cost of the dog's rehabilitation.
Adoption fees vary at Poodle Rescue of Houston. Normally, miniatures are $360.
Puppies and other highly desirable dogs such as Toy Poodles and Standard Poodles are higher and can be as much as $610.
Fees for senior and special needs dogs can be less and are often waived altogether.
PRH accepts: cash, Visa or Mastercard.


Taking a break from the paleo recipes I've been posting lately to bring you this totally delicious and totally sinful recipe for blackberry apple crumble cups.
For years, my dad has been sharing stories of going blackberry picking with his dad when he was home from boarding school over the summers. He always talks of the great memories he has of picking and eating the delicious berries with his family, and all of the delicious treats that would be made with their pickings. I've been trying for years to make him a blackberry treat for Father's Day, but could never find fresh blackberries in my grocery store in mid-July. Until this year.
Armed with loads of fresh blackberries, I figured I couldn't go wrong with a crumble. I brought these over to share with the family on Father's Day and we all started to immediately dig into the container of crumble for tastes, even though we hadn't even had dinner yet. I contemplated joking with my dad that these were sugar free, gluten free, paleo, fat free, etc. (he doesn't do healthy when it comes to dessert) but knew I couldn't say it with a straight face.
Warmed up and topped with vanilla ice cream and caramel drizzle, these crumble cups were perfectly crisp and sweet. The blackberry and apple paired perfectly together, and having them baked in individual cups made portion control easier.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a muffin tin or place muffin holders in tin.
In a small bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, butter and sugar.
Place 2 tbs of the graham cracker mixture into each muffin well, pressing firmly into the pan.
In one bowl, combine the apples, blackberries, sugar, almond flour, and cinnamon.
In another bowl, combine the brown sugar, rolled oats, cinnamon, and flour. Using your hands, work the butter into the mixture until a crumble is formed.
Fill each muffin well with the apple and blackberry mixture, topping with the crumble so each one is slightly overflowing.
Bake for 15 - 20 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown.

There are plenty of reasons why Omaha, Nebraska, isn't known for being a walkable, people-friendly city. It has one of the lowest bike commuting rates in the country. In a vote last year, Streetsblog readers crowned a location in Omaha as America's worst intersection.
But there are some signs that the city is moving in the right direction. Omaha launched a B-Cycle bike-share system in 2012 that, while it started with only five stations, has been slowly expanding. Bike commuting has increased 125 percent since 2000.
More ambitious changes are on the agenda now that the city has unveiled a transit plan with the potential to make the city a more walkable, urban place.
A "preferred alternative" developed by the city of Omaha and the local transit agency calls for an eight-mile bus rapid transit route, estimated to cost about $33 million, as well as a 3.25-mile modern streetcar line, estimated to cost $140 million. The city is applying for a TIGER grant to help fund the BRT plan.
The streetcar will run through downtown Omaha, between "north downtown" to the University of Nebraska Medical Center. The BRT will share much of the same route but extend several miles further west, past the medical center. The BRT will run on both dedicated and mixed-traffic lanes and will include signal priority.
In public meetings, planners emphasized that the enhanced transit lines would help downtown become a "park-once" district, where people would not have to drive between destinations. With less pressure to supply parking, more land could be developed.

So I bought a forty-four magnum, it was solid steel cast, and in the blessed name of Elvis, well I just let it blast 'til my TV lay in pieces. Votes: 0

Small unit democracy, I found early on, didn't work for me. Votes: 0
What you were singing about was believable and convincing, that's the key to a great singer. Votes: 0
The different social forces that affected my parents' lives or my friends' lives or I saw around me became essential for me to write about. Votes: 0
It doesn't matter what happened last night or the night - or tomorrow night. It's all about what you're doing with this audience right now. Votes: 0
Most artists I know consider themselves to be phonies, along with the feeling that there's something that you're doing is essential, essential to communicate, and deeply, deeply real. Votes: 0
A pop song is a condensed version of a life in three minutes, whereas, when you go to write your prose, you have to find the rhythm in your words, and you have to find the rhythm in the voice that you have found and the way you're speaking. Votes: 0
I think that, when you're writing your songs, there's always a debate about whether, is that you in the song? Is it not you in the song? Votes: 0
I think that it's a natural thing for parents to look for reflections of themselves in their children and feel a certain pride there. So if your child is very, very different, or perhaps if he's very, very similar, it makes you uncomfortable. Votes: 0
Mental illness and creativity are - it's a thin line in between the two. I tend to believe that. Votes: 0
For me, once I count the band in, and I delve deep into my song, I feel a certain sort of integrity and integration that I rarely find in my daily life. Votes: 0
You may not be able to hit all the notes. That's OK. You may not have the clearest tone. You may not have the greatest range. But if you can inhabit your song, you can communicate. Votes: 0
The one thing I wished for my children is that they'd be readers. Votes: 0
I think if somebody comes up and simply says, your jobs? I'm going to bring them back. You're not comfortable with the browning of America? I'm going to build a wall. ISIS, I'm going to defeat them. Those are very - it's a simple, but it was a compelling message for a lot of people. Votes: 0
When I got into "Anna Karenina" and "Brothers Karamazov" and "Crime and Punishment," that was the stuff that - that had a big effect on me, because it was so psychological. Votes: 0
Deindustrialization that I have written about for 40 years left a good part of the American public behind. Votes: 0
I studied other singers, so I would learn how to phrase, and learn how to breathe. And the main thing was, I learned how to inhabit my song. Votes: 0
I don't know many artists who are not crazy. Votes: 0
I think 1960s small-town America was very Lynchian. Everything was there, but underneath, everything was rumbling. Votes: 0
I don't know if I know anyone, with the exception of the early inventors of rock music [who wasn't influenced by something]. Votes: 0
I always look terrible before the show. That's when I feel worst. And after the show it's like a million bucks. Simple as that. You feel a little tired but you never feel better. Nothing makes me feel as good as those hours between when you walk offstage, until I go to bed. That's the hours that I live for. Votes: 0
Somewhere along the way, the idea, which I think was initially to get some fair transaction between people, went out the window. And what came in was, the most you can get and the least you can give. That's why cars are the way they are nowadays. It's just an erosion of all the things that were true and right about the original idea. Votes: 0
I never knew anybody who was unhappy with their job and was happy with their life. It's your sense of purpose. Now, some people can find it elsewhere. Some people can work a job and find it some place else. Votes: 0
I never start with a political point of view. I believe that your politics are emotionally and psychologically determined by your early experiences. Votes: 0
I tend to be pessimistic. I want to believe in hope. Votes: 0
Music doesn't tell you where to go. It says, go find your own place. That's what it told me. Votes: 0
There's a beauty in work and I love it, all different kinds of work. That's what I consider it. Rock is my job, and that's my work. And I work my ass off, you know. Votes: 0
There's people that get a chance to do the kind of work that changes the world, and make things really different. And there's the kind that just keeps the world from falling apart. Votes: 0
Somehow all you ever need's never really quite enough. Votes: 0
I heard a political message in rock music. A liberation message. A message of freedom. I heard it in Elvis' voice. Votes: 0
I come from a boardwalk town where almost everything is tinged with a bit of fraud. So am I. Votes: 0
I'm the kind of person, I think a lot about everything. Nothin' I can do about it. It's like, I'm a thinkin' fool. That's a big part of me. Votes: 0
I held four clean aces. I had youth, almost a decade of hard-core bar band experience, a good group of homegrown musicians who were attuned to my performance style and a story to tell. Votes: 0
Sometimes I do an automatic songs, songs that you don't really think about, or work on. You just look back and it sorta surprises you. Votes: 0
I don't want to make a record like in the '50s or the '60s or the '70s. I want to make a record like today, that`s right now. Votes: 0
I couldn't worry about whether I`m gonna make it onstage or not. You can't. You just gotta do it. And if you do, you do, and if you don't, you don't, and then something else happens. That's the point of the live performance. Votes: 0
I can get onstage and cut that off and be superinstinctive. To be a good live performer, you have to be instinctive. It's like, to walk in the jungle, or to do anything where there's a certain tightrope wire aspect you need to be instinctive. And you have to be comfortable at it also. Votes: 0
A great singer has to learn how to inhabit a song. Votes: 0
I had no credit cards. I had no checks. I was cash only until I was probably 30 years old. Votes: 0
I think you can't demonize somebody that's on the other side of the political spectrum, or you can't generalize about them. Votes: 0
Most artists I know had one person in their life who told them they were the second coming of the baby Jesus, and another person that told them they weren't worth anything, and they believed them both, you know? Votes: 0

WIiT Paris 2014 : Women's Issues in Transportation
What do you expect from the WIiT Conference?
"To bring new light to the conversation about the unique impacts felt by women in using transportation or working in the transportation field."
"To be enriched myself on the width and depth of the gender perspective, in general, and in domain of transport."
The 5th WIiT Conference is being organized around the general idea of "bridging the gap" in an effort to identify and address issues specific to women's use and involvement in the transportation system and to ensure that transportation systems meet women's needs. The conference will provide an international forum for information sharing and for presenting the latest research findings and policy analyses. The program will feature international officials, keynote speakers, researchers, and practitioners. The aim is to build on the research on women's transportation issues that has been developed over the past decades, and to broaden its perspective by considering women's issues in transportation with a more balanced perspective - i.e. of women not just as passive recipients of transport services, but as actors in sustainable access and safe mobility research, policy development, governance and oversight, service delivery and business expansion. Additionally, the conference will aim to identify future research needs.
