NASADAD releases analyses of state STR/SOR profiles
Image April 8, 2020 Emily Diehl
In April of 2019, NASADAD sent an inquiry to the Single State Agencies for alcohol and other drug services requesting information on how they were using the State Targeted Response (STR) and State Opioid Response (SOR) grants to address the opioid crisis in their States. The results of the inquiry were summarized into State-specific profiles highlighting prevention, treatment, overdose reversal, and recovery support efforts. Below are brief analyses of the most common ways States have used STR and SOR funds for prevention, treatment, overdose reversal, recovery support, and examples of innovative State initiatives.

NASADAD releases updated timeline of STR and SOR funding
Image February 14, 2020 SWickramatilake
In 2018, NASADAD developed a timeline of the State Targeted Response to the Opioid Crisis (STR) and State Opioid Response (SOR) grant programs. The timeline outlines key dates, such as: when grants were authorized; when Congress appropriated funds; when funding opportunity announcements (FOAs) were released; funding award periods for States for each of the grant programs; and more. NASADAD has updated the timeline to reflect two recent developments:
In December 2019, Congress appropriated level funding of $1.5 billion for the State Opioid Response (SOR) grant program, and noted that "stimulant abuse" would be an allowable use of SOR funds in FY 2020.
In February 2020, the Administration released its proposed budget for FY 2021 and included a request of $1.585 billion for SOR, an increase of $85 million compared to FY 2020.

Staff may be disciplined for reasons of inadequate performance, misconduct, violation of established policies and procedures, or other cause. These guidelines outline the counseling process which may be utilized prior to taking disciplinary actions for staff.
The University supports the philosophy of counseling staff to address problems of job performance or conduct issues by taking appropriate levels of corrective measures. The counseling process usually starts with documented verbal counseling and escalates to levels of counseling such as written reprimands if problems continue. Problems of performance or conduct should be addressed by supervisors through this process in a timely manner. Supervisors who are considering the counseling process should notify their administrative channels and contact Human Resource Management (HRM) for assistance in developing counseling strategies.
The University may take disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment, for seriously inadequate performance, misconduct or other cause, at any time without prior counseling or discipline.
Counseling should generally precede disciplinary action, except in more serious circumstances. Depending on the circumstances, the employee may be disciplined without prior counseling and/or without advance notice.
Problems should be addressed in a meeting between the employee and the supervisor to discuss the nature of the problems, improvement strategies, and target improvement dates. The details of the counseling session should be recorded as written documentation of the discussion and maintained by the supervisor in the University's performance management system. When feasible, adequate time should be allotted for improvement to occur. Follow-up meetings between the employee and supervisor may occur to ensure that performance is improved and/or misconduct has not reoccurred.
If the problems are related to performance, counseling documentation should take the form of a performance improvement plan with goals and expectations for improved performance or a special evaluation in accordance with the Staff Performance Evaluation policy.
If the problems are misconduct issues, counseling may proceed progressive discipline and takes the form of documented verbal counseling, and/or a counseling letter which outlines expected changes, required timelines, and resulting consequences if problems reoccur. This documentation should be recorded in the University's performance management system.
Performance and/or conduct problems may persist despite application of the counseling process; in such cases, disciplinary action should be recommended pursuant to the Disciplinary Action Policy for Staff. In some cases, disciplinary action may be taken in the absence of prior counseling.
Staff who are appointed to temporary positions and staff who are within their probationary period are "at will" employees and are therefore exempt from the provisions of this process Their appointments may end as specified or at any time earlier without recourse to appeal.
Non-reappointments of Unclassified Professional Staff (UPS) are not disciplinary actions. This process does not apply to non-reappointments, or to terminations of "serve at the pleasure of" appointments.
This process does not apply to staff covered by a Memorandum of Agreement whose provisions specify a disciplinary action process.
Counseling– Includes verbal or written counseling for inadequate performance and/or misconduct. Written documentation should be used to codify corrective measures outlined in counseling.

Small system solves water woes—cooperation is key
Thursday, Jul 28, 2016
Three Rivers, Calif. – The 2,600 residents who call Three Rivers home take pride in the peaceful landscape near Sequoia National Park. In fact, Walt Disney once considered building a major ski resort nearby because the landscape is so picturesque. Despite its beautiful surroundings, it became clear two years ago that one small Three Rivers community's water supply was in danger, so residents called on Rural Community Assistance Corporation for help.
"There were serious problems especially in the summertime," resident and board member, Ginny Stone recalls. "There are fewer homes around here, just outside of Three Rivers, and several of them at higher elevation couldn't get enough water then."
The system's private owner, who was living in Fresno, had neglected the infrastructure for years, say residents. While more homes were built on the dry and grassy hillsides, the water system's upkeep and expansion lagged. Occasional pleas to improve matters went nowhere until 1988 when the residents purchased a 10,000-gallon water storage tank with their own funds. The owner finally agreed to sell the system to the community, but he died suddenly. Eventually, the owner's family agreed to sell the system to the Sierra King Homeowners Association for $1. The association, which provides water to 41 very rural users in the area, is now the system's sole owner and is managed by a seven-member board.
The board faced more challenges in 1997 when an earthquake caused the main well to collapse. A FEMA grant funded a new well and later a Small Business Administration loan funded a second well, drilled in 2007.
However, in the following years it became clear that two 10,000-gallon tanks that served the community were leaking and had exceeded their expected useful life.
"We really didn't know what to do," Stone says. "We were about to give up."
From left: Judy Smith, Betty Avalos (president), Ginny Stone, Cliff Stone and Lew Sutfin.
The group brainstormed solutions and one evening board member Frank Avalos returned home from a meeting and mentioned the problem to his wife, Betty.
"I got on the Internet," she says. "And after some searching, I found RCAC."
She contacted Dave Wallis, RCAC technical services program manager, who drove to the community one afternoon in 2014 to meet with water company board members to determine their needs and to discuss options they could consider.
"He thoroughly inspected the tanks and pumps and said that since the tanks were pressurized and old and leaking, that they could explode if we didn't repair them," says resident Lew Sutfin. He and residents Stone, her husband Cliff, the Avalos' and Judy Smith, the board's secretary, also got to work exploring options, eventually deciding to replace the tanks. To do so, they agreed, as well, to apply for an RCAC loan.
Meanwhile, Dave Wallis was in contact with other RCAC staff members Leon Schegg and Richard Culp, who prepared a report that considered various alternatives, costs and benefits.
Dave also contacted RCAC loan officer Mike Carnes, who processed the water company's application to replace the leaking tanks and make other necessary repairs. The $89,200 loan closed in May 2015. The repair and replacement work took six months.
Well house with new 10,000 gallon certified hydropneumatic tank inside and two 10,000 gallon storage tanks (one new) in front.
"There was a lot of fine-tuning and lining," Sutfin, another board member, says one afternoon as he, Betty Avalos, Stone and Smith showed a visitor around the new tanks and pump.
"Dave Wallis provided some great technical assistance that showed us the need to replace the pressurized tank before it blew up!" says Betty Avalos. "He showed us some photos of old tanks that had failed, and we certainly didn't want to be in that situation. He also pointed out some other infrastructure improvements that we might consider in the future. Mike Carnes was tremendously helpful to me with the loan application process and made it easy to complete. He has also been very helpful to our treasurer, Stella Sutfin, as she has been dealing with the required ongoing paperwork and reports."

The saddest Amtrak " Station " I've ever seen was SP Pomona,CA. on the Sunset route. Without even the luxury of an Amshack, passengers had to wait in their autos or on the platform, until the E/B Sunset arrived sometime between 11PM and Sunrise. ( After all, it was a loonng way - 40 miles - from its' Initial Departure Point of Los Angeles. ) And all that time was spent in the shadow of the boarded - up Espee depot, except for those mis - guided passengers who waited in vain at The Santa Fe Depot on North Geary Ave., ( where many had bought their tickets ), only to arrive just as The Sunset left town without them !!! This happened too many times., The Train Punks, 1stCajon, Flim Baden, and I would have to give the disappointing news that The Sunset's next stop ( at the time ) was in Palm Springs !!!

A reorganisation of existing public service agencies and the creation of new public service agencies was announced shortly after the recent state election.
The new public service structure is HERE and takes effect from 1 July 2019.
A visual version of the changes can be found HERE.
The full details are still being established for the many agencies.
Whilst there are significant rumours circulating at present, it is unlikely that significant change will occur until after 1 July in many areas. The PSA has written to the government and asked for consultation on the changes to commence.
There is an obligation on your employer to undertake meaningful consultation on any restructures. Do not however, assume that just because your employer says that they have consulted with the PSA that they have.
We would ask anyone that hears about or receives restructure information, no matter how brief, to send this information to membersupport@psa.asn.au, or by calling the MSC on 1300 772 679 and quoting the call number 115974.
The combination of a government wide restructure of departments, and the scheduled 12 per cent cuts over the next four years built into the budget, means that we all must remain vigilant.
The PSA will continue to support members in the coming times.
In the lead up to the state election the PSA campaigned to change the government. We'll be holding the new members of parliament, and the old, to account and expect this government to respect the voices of protest raised during the election campaign.
A particularly strong message was sent to this government by regional voters and the PSA will be holding it to account where jobs come under threat during the next four years.
Together, we will continue to work hard in the interests of the state and its people.
Stay up to date with the PSA bulletins and support your PSA workplace delegates who will be critical in supporting you in the coming period.
As well as consultation with the union required by the Industrial Relations Act and awards, the employer must also consult directly with workers and their representatives under the consultation obligations of the WHS Act during change management.
that the workers consulted are advised of the outcome of the consultation in a timely manner.
If the workers are represented by a health and safety representative (HSR), the consultation must involve that representative.
The PSA conducts training courses (found HERE) for HSRs, Bullying Prevention and Care and Resilience.
Contact whs@psa.asn.au for more information about WHS training or if you are concerned that WHS consultation is not happening properly in your workplace.


Several soil biochemical processes related to soil fertility are microbially mediated. We know very well the factors limiting crop production but know little of the factors limiting the soil microbial community. The goal of this study is to clarify if N, P and C limit soil microbial growth and biochemical processes in the wheat and fallow phases of rotations receiving different N, P and crop residue-C inputs. Soil samples were collected July 28, 2003, and brought to the laboratory. Soils samples were treated with an N, C or P solution, with water only, or left untreated, and incubated for 48 hours. At the end of the incubation period, soil microbial biomass N was determined along with denitrification and nitrogenase activities. The results showed that the microbial activities and growth were limited by soil moisture at the date of sampling. Denitrification and nitrogenase activities were limited by N, P or C. The limiting nutrients varied with N, P and C inputs associated with the cropping system, regardless to soil moisture. The limitation of these elements to soil microbial activity was more frequently encountered under fallow.

The Eminence in Shadow Volume 1 Review
Demelza • 18th September 2020
When Yen Press licensed The Eminence in Shadow light novel series, the community was very excited. It's safe to say that the books have a bit of a cult following and today I'm here to find out if the story is as good as the hype made it out to be.
The story follows Cid Kagenoh, who has always felt a deep appreciation for 'shadowbrokers' (or an eminence in shadow as Cid calls them), those who are the masterminds behind some great scheme: the type of person who is secretly pulling the strings and fighting against a great evil. Of course, living in modern-day Japan means Cid can never become a shadowbroker himself, but nevertheless he trains his body in the hopes of awakening to some mystical power that will allow him to accomplish this dream.
Unfortunately, Cid is hit by a truck and killed before he can achieve this. Luckily he's reborn in another world, one filled with magic which proves to be the perfect place for our hero to live out his desires! Now Cid trains anew to become the leader of The Shadow Garden, his secret organisation.
Once Cid grows older, he begins taking down petty thieves and those looking to harm the townspeople. One day he saves a girl whom he calls Alpha. Now with another member in his organisation, Cid thinks up a whole backstory as the reason for The Shadow Garden existing. This story includes heroes, a demon lord and an evil cult now trying to resurrect the demon lord. This is just a story Cid makes up as he goes along, but little does he know it's all true!
As The Shadow Garden grows and gains more members (all named after the Greek alphabet), Cid simply thinks they're playing along with his imaginary story. In reality, the organisation and its members are fighting against an evil cult and the whole world could be in trouble if the demon lord is brought back to life.
If you've read this far then you'll probably have noticed that The Eminence in Shadow is at least partly a comedy series. It's also your bog-standard reincarnation plot with an overpowered main character (Cid is certainly in no danger of losing to anyone!), which has certainly been overdone by now.
While the secret organisation twist is a relatively fresh take on the genre (at least in the English market), the problem is that The Eminence in Shadow is not a good read. It's not written particularly well and that makes it hard to care about any of the characters or the situations they find themselves in. This is especially true of Cid who gets zero development throughout Volume 1 and yet has girls falling for him left and right.
Alpha and the other members of The Shadow Garden have the potential to be interesting, but it's difficult to look past how infatuated they are with Cid for no reason. They think he's smart and sees through the enemies' plot better than they can, but everything Cid guesses right is simply a fluke.
Even when the book changes setting to Cid attending an academy, he has a princess falling for him as well as a scientist. Since Cid is trying to play the role of a 'minor character', this frustrated me even more since he's doing nothing to earn these girls' affections.
Even if we put aside the characters and setting, author Daisuke Aizawa's comedy falls flat. I admittedly like the idea of a ragtag group of characters facing off against some great evil and the fact Cid has made all this up, unaware that the cult exists should be funny. It should be entertaining in the same vein as Natsume Akatsuki's Combatants Will Be Dispatched! or Tsukikage's Defeating the Demon Lord's a Cinch, but it's boring.
Battle scenes amount to Cid finding an enemy and killing them in one shot. His interactions with other characters are repetitive, usually involving a dialogue about what the cult is up to and Cid jumping to a conclusion that ends up being correct. No matter what Cid does, he never makes a mistake and honestly, he should have been the butt of at least some of the jokes.
One positive I will note for the book is that the illustrations are very nice. Handled by Touzai (Saving 80,000 Gold in Another World for my Retirement, Why Shouldn't a Detestable Demon Lord Fall in Love?!), the images capture the cloak and dagger aura of The Shadow Garden members well. The character designs are very detailed, too, which helps build up a solid mental image of them.
The Eminence in Shadow comes to the West has been translated by Kristi Fernandez. The translation reads well with no issues to note, although it is worth mentioning that Volume 2 onwards is changing hands to Nathaniel Hiroshi Thrasher. The release itself is a hardback with some colour pages at the front. I appreciate what Yen Press have done with the logo design which fades into shadow toward the end of the title. The series is on-going in Japan at three volumes and Yen currently have Volume 2 scheduled for an English release in October.
Overall, The Eminence in Shadow is a comedy that simply isn't funny. There is an interesting premise here but the writing isn't good enough to back it up. When there are much better light novels on the market, it becomes very difficult to recommend this one to anyone, especially given the hardback nature of the release makes it expensive.
When she's not watching anime, reading manga or reviewing, Demelza can generally be found exploring some kind of fantasy world and chasing her dreams of being a hero.

On December 1st, 2016, I began taking a walk down memory lane. I became a #NostalgiaJunkie.
In preparation for re-launching ValerieRayne.com, I thought it was important to look over all of what I've done over the years to see what worked and what didn't and where I wanted things to go. Sometimes it's good to look back to move forward.
So, I began collecting up all these memories on Facebook for #ThrowbackThursday.
I thought it would be fun to keep a running recap of them, since it can be a bit of a pain to find them all on Facebook (if you know an easy way, then let me know in the comments!). Here's 7 memories and the next 7 will be coming soon!
Well, there you have it. A handy little recap of all my #ThrowbackThursday posts on Facebook.
If you haven't liked my page yet, I'd love for you to give it a thumbs up and say "hi". Do you do #ThrowbackThursday on any social networks? Share your experience with me in the comments below and if you liked this post, please share it or click the Like button below!


Jock Lindsey's Hangar Bar is a trove of artifacts and curiosities from his piloting days and his adventures with archaeological adventurers, namely Indiana Jones. To get more specific, there are many nods scattered throughout the hangar that are direct pulls from the original trilogy of Indiana Jones films. Over time it appears that Jock grew weary of accepting things that belong in museums as payment for his services, or drinks, and erected a sign that artifacts would no longer be considered a form of payment. That doesn't mean there aren't some wonderful pieces to ogle while you're there. Today, however, let's stick close to where it all began, and unearth some artifacts from Raiders of the Lost Ark.
We first come upon Indy in the jungles of Peru, where he using field notes from another archaeologist, Forrestal, he is seeking to locate the Chachapoyan fertility idol. The figure depicts Pacamama and is found by Jones in the Temple of the Chachapoyan Warriors. However, just as soon as he acquires to idol, Belloq steals it away from Jones. With the help of his trusty pilot, and our barkeep, Jock, Indy is able to fly away to adventure another day. The idol, meanwhile, has a story that continues on.
Belloq, on his way to uncover the Ark of the Covenant, sells the idol in Marrakesh to an antiquities dealer named Saad Hassim, the one place Jones knows Belloq can unburden himself of the idol. It is here that Dr. Jones is later able to acquire the fertility idol and present it to the National Museum. At a gala in the idol's honor, a band of Hovitos, and possible decedents of the Chachapoyan, steal back the idol and head for Brazil. Jones gives chase and confronts the Hovitos, and their Nazi counterparts, and is able to once again obtain the idol.
It is clear that at some point after this adventure that Indiana turns the idol over the Jock. Whether it's for safe keeping, because a hangar in central Florida is the last place you'd expect to find a Peruvian fertility idol, or to pay for safe passage to and from another adventure, the idol ends up in Jock's hands. You can find it atop a trunk turned makeshift bookshelf in the very back, right corner of the Hangar Bar.
Before Indy was able to collect the idol, however, he had another adventure that was the main thrust of Raiders of the Ark. His quest to get to Tanis and locate the Ark of the Covenant takes him to Nepal in search of Abner Ravenwood. Instead, Jones finds Abner has passed away leaving the artifact he is looking for, the Headpiece to the Staff of Ra, has been passed to Abner's daughter, and Indy's estranged love interest, Marion.
Briefly in the hand of, and burned into the palm of, Arnold Toht, the headpiece contains instructions on the precise height for the staff of Ra. However, with only the information on one side, the Nazis end up with a staff that is too tall for the map in the Well of Souls and with a dig site in the wrong location. With the original headpiece in the possession of Indiana, he is able to locate the Ark first, only to have it, once again, swiped out from under him by Belloq and the Nazis. He and Marion are eventually able to attain the Ark again, only to have it spirited away by the American intelligence services.
Meanwhile, either Marion or Indy accidentally left the Headpiece to the Staff of Ra at Jock's place after a night of frivolity, and maybe one or two too many Jocktails... If you're looking to claim this artifact, or just admire its craftsmanship, then you should definitely look very closely at the Lost and Found case in the hangar. The case is along the walkway to the restrooms and, aside from the headpiece, it contains a wealth of wonderful items that are sure to interest you.
Jock Lindsey is in the conversation for one of Indiana Jones' most stalwart companions, right up there with Sallah and Marcus Brody, and their years together show through the sheer amount of artifacts found throughout the Hangar Bar and notes from the flight log, aka menu. The fertility idol and Headpiece to the Staff of Ra from Raiders of the Lost Ark are only the beginning of the relics left behind from their adventures. This only means we'll just have to keep visiting Jock's in order to excavate new stories from the barkeep and pilot's home.

Lexus Unveils A Car Made Completely Out Of Cardboard And It Drives Like A Charm
The Engineer October 12, 2015 0
Cardboard and its uses have never failed to surprise us, however, when Lexus creates a cardboard that can be driven; mind = blown! Meet the Origami Car that is a life-size version of the Lexus IS saloon and has been created using cardboard.
The project has been executed as a publicity stunt of course, however, it does celebrate the Lexus' "takumi craftsmen and women". The finished model can be driven and that's what makes it so special. It was created in collaboration with LaserCut Works and Scales and Models with a team comprised of five professional designers and modelers. A total of 1,700 cardboard sheets each measuring in at 10mm thick were employed and were laser cut to the required sizes.
It was built on a steel and aluminum frame and has been powered by an electric motor to make it move forward and backward. Apart from this, it comes with an interior and functional doors, headlights and rolling wheels that have been created using layered sheets of cardboard.
The design was based on a 3D model that was given by Lexus. The team proceeded by dividing the model into a number of sections that included the dashboard, main body, seats and the wheels. The sheets of cardboard were then cut and numbered to facilitate the assembly. These pieces were then layered by hand via water-based glue.
Ruben Marcos, Scales and Models Company founder and director, said, "The seats took a few attempts to get just right and the wheels required a lot of refining. Once we could see the physical pieces taking shape, we could identify where we needed to make improvements – as with anything, there were some elements of trial and error, but as we had all the resources we needed in-house, this made the changes easier to produce."
It was completed within three months. Check out the video below.

£5m striker signing is an absolute must for Sheffield United: Opinion
By Lee Connor
Sheffield United are currently preparing for life in the Premier League after a superb promotion season last year saw Chris Wilder's man seal second spot.
The Blades surprised many in the game with their performance levels and consistency, and now Wilder and his players will be fully focussed on ensuring they don't become a one season wonder in the top flight.
To do that though and make sure they avoid relegation, the Blades must move in the transfer market and sign some big name players who can make a difference to the performance levels at Bramall Lane.
One such name who has been linked with a move to United in the last few days is West Brom striker Jay Rodriguez, who can reportedly leave the club for £5m after the Baggies failed to win promotion back to the top flight at the first attempt.
This has opened the door for a club like United to swoop, and we here in the Tavern think it's a match made in heaven.
Rodriguez smashed in 22 goals last season for Albion as they lost out to Aston Villa in the play-offs, and his form hasn't gone unnoticed around the rest of the League.
With the Blades having an ageing and unproven strike force at the top level, the signing of someone like Rodriguez makes perfect sense, given his Premier League experience and age.
The former Southampton man was once touted as the next big thing in English football, but a few bad injuries have disrupted his career. However, he is now fully back fit and firing it would seem, and what makes a move to Bramall Lane attractive for Rodriguez would be the almost guarantee of first team football.
United play with two strikers, but they also like to deploy a number 10, something Rodriguez is more than comfortable with.
The former England man is too good to be loitering in the Championship, and he could prove to be a superb capture for the Blades if they can pull it off.

Gulf dead zone misses forecast, is still bigger than goal size
By Perry Beeman, Des Moines Register.com
This year's dead zone in the Gulf of Mexico is smaller than expected, but still significantly bigger than a federal task force's goal.
The oxygen-free zone — the result largely of fertilizer runoff from the Midwest — covers an area bigger than Connecticut.
Researchers had expected a near-record zone of hypoxia, or low oxygen, at 7,300 to 8,600 square miles because of heavy spring rains and unused fertilizer runoff from last year's drought-shrunken corn crop. The Louisiana Universities Marine Consortium's cruise aboard the Pelican found a zone of 5,800 square miles instead.
Last year, the dead zone was 2,889 square miles, the fourth-smallest on record, because of the drought, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration reported.
The record, in 2002, was 8,481 square miles, and the smallest was 15 square miles in 1988.
The average over the past five years has been 5,176 square miles.
The federal task force working on the dead zone, or hypoxic area, wants the airless area reduced to 1,930 square miles.
The low-oxygen condition is caused in part by Midwestern crop fertilizers, which cause algae to grow in the Gulf. When the algae die, they consume oxygen, forcing sea creatures to move elsewhere or die. That disrupts one of the nation's top fisheries.
Iowa is the nation's top corn grower and the source of some of the biggest nitrogen loads heading down the Mississippi River to the Gulf.
"Giving a voice to the majority of Iowans who share this concern, we have repeatedly called on state leaders to set clear, measurable goals for reducing Iowa's contribution to the Dead Zone," said Ralph Rosenberg, executive director of the Iowa Environmental Council.
A coalition of environmental groups called the Mississippi River Collaborative sued the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency last year to force the agency to set and enforce numeric standards for nitrogen and phosphorus in waterways. In Iowa, the pollution makes it more expensive to treat drinking water and fouls rivers and lakes used by paddlers, boaters and swimmers, Rosenberg added.
Louisiana scientists said high winds in the southern part of the Gulf kept the dead zone smaller than had been predicted, preventing hypoxia from forming in some places this summer.
Not only was the area smaller than expected, but oxygen levels were relatively high, even in the dead zone.
"At stations where hypoxia was found, the values were extremely low and close to zero," said LUMCON's Nancy Rabalais and fellow researcher Eugene Turner of Louisiana State University.
The news from last week's cruise of the Pelican, LUMCON's ship, comes a week after Iowa Agriculture Secretary Bill Northey told a Farm Bureau conference in Ames that the voluntary projects outlined in the state's Nutrient Reduction Strategy — similar to approaches used while the dead zone grew during the past several decades — remain the answer to cutting runoff pollution.
Northey contended regulations won't work, and more progress will come from working with farmers on voluntary conservation and nutrient management.
The Gulf Restoration Network wasn't buying that argument Monday. Once again, the group called for setting numeric standards for nitrogen and phosphorus.
"Since states have chosen to drag their feet on reducing dead zone-causing pollution in a significant way, it is EPA's responsibility to set strong standards," said Cynthia Sarthou, executive director.
Ditto for another nonprofit, the Prairie River Network.
"It's long past time for us to get serious about curbing the dead zone pollution," said Glynnis Collins, executive director. "Cities are rising to the challenge of tighter controls on sewage treatment plant discharges because the Clean Water Act forced them to. Now we need leadership from Congress to tackle tough national policies to reduce pollution from agriculture."

The Laws of Physics (some, more so guidelines) are subject to and inevitably due to change. As we learn more about our existence, we also learn more about how it all works together and thus the need to tweak our laws of Physics will demand our attention. One of the coolest things about Physics and science in general is that it is designed to be changeable, even the constants we understand today. Once we think we know everything, thinking and learning stop, prejudice and hypocrisy sets in.

Science must be objective, free from prejudice. To prove yourself wrong, should be a good day. Progress has been made on a good day. Science is both a body of knowledge and a process. Physics is the pursuit of knowledge, identifying how the universe works, following a systematic methodology based on evidence that will either support or repute the ideas of a hypothesis or even a well-established, well accepted theory. For these ideas and predictions must be testable and falsifiable.

Final Thoughts – Gochisousan (2013)
Gochisousan Japanese TV Serial 2013
"Gochisousama deshita", a term widely used after eating to express appreciation for the food. "Gochisou" literally means, "a feast." And a feast is what this drama is; a feast on family, life, and most of all, a feast of great acting. While I have seen Higashide Anne (nee Watanabee) a couple of times (recently in Date), but this is the first time watching Higashide Masahiro in a complete drama (he was recently in Hana Moyu)! Together, it makes sense why these two would eventually marry! Read on….

Meiji 44th year. Meiko is the daughter of Daigo, who owns a western restaurant in Tokyo. She loves to eat the omelette prepared by Daigo, and the nukaduke (pickles) prepared by her mother, Iku. Theirs is a warm, close knitted family, and Meiko's love for food grows with age. Even now, when she is in an all-girls' high school, her mind is filled with thoughts of food all the time. Due to that, Yutaro, the university student who is boarding at the Uno's home, scathingly calls Meiko, "a person with no charms whatsoever". However, as Meiko changes from someone who loves to eat, to a person who loves to prepare food for others to eat, she starts to display an inner strength as foretold by her mother and her grandmother.
"To crave for food, is to have the will to live; the stronger the craving, the greater the will".
This Asadora drama was a total surprise. I wasn't expecting to like it as much as I did. What made this one so much better was that it wasn't really focusing on a specific subject as it was truly a fictional tale but what it did well was to wove in historical facts and happenings of the time period to give you that real life story feel.
My heart just fell in love with this little actress playing the young Meiko (Toyoshima Hana). Her many expressions when confronting her young friends and mini-enemies is extremely cute. But nothing can prepare you for when she is eating! This little young miss makes you want to run to the store and eat whatever she is eating at that moment. Why? She makes everything look so damn good! From eating a bowl of rice and curry, a strawberry; you name it. It is with pure joy that she expresses herself! I laughed and giggled while watching her little performance. I admit, I was sadden when Meiko grew up!
The same goes for her little bully and friend, Izumi Genta. The scene when she beat him down for messing with her strawberry jam was hilarious and I believe you won't forget it too soon. Unfortunately, I don't know the little actor's name as I could not find it and give him credit. But again, you won't forget him either. But both young actors were definitely spitting images of their adult counterparts! Great casting!
The transition to the adult characters was seamlessly done. As the adult Meiko came onto the screen, I loved how you still saw the child. Anne did a wonderful job in reminding us of that child and her continuous love for food. Her scenes with her friends, Sakurako and Tamiko were fun especially the times they spent in class and the coffee shop. Of course, it is with the girls that Meiko first encounters Yutaro. Though Meiko wants to deny it at first, it truly is love at first sight.
It takes Meiko's tutoring sessions with Yutaro that seals the deal. As payment for his help to pass the final math test, she makes him lunch everyday with a surprise filling and serves him his dinner. Slowly, Yutaro opens up to Meiko and looks forward to what she makes next as Meiko promises not to make the same thing. And she almost keeps that promise until the reality of how much she loves Yutaro hits her like a ton of bricks.
It takes the near drowning scene when Meiko goes on an omiai while trying to be filial to her father who wants it but it really is with the unknowing influence of her mother that Meiko turns it down and runs to the Todai University rowing match that Yutaro is participating for his University. As she is chasing and rooting for him, it is her fall into the water that finally attracts Yutaro's attention, giving us a nice scene where he both admits he likes her but also turns her away. Teruo is the cute brother but there is really no development of his character.
One thing for sure, you will love Meiko's family! It is not only his love for food but his love of family. In the beginning, the father tries to focus on French Cuisine; however, it is a food critic's review that changes the tide as well as Meiko that shows him the way to success for the restaurant by concentrating on what the people really want. Meiko's mother is a great support mechanism for both her husband as well as her family.
It's nice that Yutaro sees the error of his ways and departs with Meiko to Osako; however, nothing can prepare us for the sister from HELL, Kazue. Kazue is Yutaro's much older sister. The age difference is so startling that initially poor Meiko mistakes her for his mother but complements Shizu, the second mother as being so young looking (she is). Bad move as you can imagine. Kazue is a seriously tough cookie with a rather sad story that didn't improve her character at all unfortunately. She refuses to acknowledge Meiko for 1 year as Yutaro's bride but she must work as the maid, literally. It's such a sad situation that Yutaro has to register Meiko on the family registry without her knowing. As you can imagine, this unleashes a major s**tstorm.
It is great that we see the return of Genta. Just like the young Genta, the older one is just as quirky and fun as his younger counterpart. Genta has moved to Osaka as a butcher. He remains Meiko's friend and confidante from the beginning to the end. He is her rock of support during the war and it is with her care that he returns to himself after the Sino-Japanese war that he was drafted for.
And the best transformation for the better goes to Noriko, Yutaro's younger sister. After years of being under the thumb of his sister, Kazue who really treated her like crap (who did this woman like?), it was really nice to see the effects of being around Meiko had on her growth as a character and especially as a woman. Though, she had a tremendous crush on Genta in the beginning, it was wonderful to see her move on to her future husband, Kawakubo who eventually works with her at the radio station. Make a note, Takahata Mitsuki (Noriko) has a BEAUTIFUL voice! When she shyly but resoundingly sings at the market, that voice was stunning! I won't figure it any time soon.
The birth of Meiko and Yutaro's first child, Fuhisa was just beautiful and funny in its execution (I know, what a pretty baby!!). As you can imagine, Meiko's thoughts remained on food even during the throws of child birth. Sadly, even with the birth of Fuhisa and later sons Taisuke and Katsuotoko, these two STILL weren't allowed to marry officially. I did say Kazue was a real "B" right?
It take 8 years. 8! Before Yutaro and Meiko are officially married. With all three children as witness, the whole Nishikado clan recognizes her as his wife. This includes Yutaro's father who he is able to reconcile with earlier in the drama thanks to Meiko's insistence. As you can expect, the wedding is beautiful with the two in a Japanese traditional wedding regalia. And Meiko's father, Daigo? Cries like a baby to finally see his only daughter a true wife to the man she chose.
One of the best things in this drama was truly the costuming! The many, many kimonos and other Japanese wear was simply wonderful! I think I immediately went on a hunt for some to purchase and sadly I must say, these are expensive! From simple to elaborate, there were so many to choose from. I realized as I watch how timeless kimonos are and about all the parts that make it so intricate.
Another thing I loved was the closing photos at the end of each episode which featured mostly children but also sometimes adults and animals as they enjoyed a meal. The many pictures of the children were so precious, I just wanted to capture as many as I could! Don't get me started on the babies!! Whether caught in the middle of devouring the food in front of them or smiling from ear to ear in delight, the camera did a great job of capturing this truly precious moments!! I think I looked forward to every single one!
While Massan showed war time Japanese during World War II from one perspective, Gochisousan showed it from an entirely different perspective; from that of a mother who supported the war and her sons that went to fight in our of their family and their country. As a mother, Meiko was proud of her sons. When the youngest volunteered, she was happy and as expected, her sadness for the one that didn't return was definitely heartfelt. Meiko's reaction when the war was over and the US forces came to town was as realistic as you can get. Her interactions with the American Colonel were funny and one of their final scenes when they realize that both had lost sons during the final minutes of the war is one of the memorable scenes at the end.
I was really glad to have watched this drama. As the fourth Asadora drama that I have completed, I've yet to be disappointed by any that I have watched. Yes, they are a commitment of time but what makes them wonderful is that as they are only 15 minutes in length, it is easy to squeeze in a episode here and there. I just look at the 150-156 episode dramas as being equivalent to Korean family dramas~very good drama!
Not long after, Anne and Masahiro were married in real life. The chemistry that the two had on the screen was delightful! It is no wonder that they fell for each other! I look forward to other dramas of theirs. Most recently, I've watched Masahiro in Hana Moyu and Mondai no Aru Restaurant; Anne in the hilariously funny drama, Date – Koi to wa Donna Mono Kashira. I recommend all three!!

I stopped watching it at episode 8. I really loved the first episodes but when she grew up, Genta was gone and Yutaro came, I felt sad so I searched for reviews on the internet. However, when I read this, I became 100% sure that I won't continue watching Gochisousan.
It's not that bad! I loved the older Meiko too! but, it just feels weird to me.
What I really liked about this drama was, the family and little Meiko and Genta.

The younger Gents and Yutaro were simply adorable. But it still remains one of my favorite watched Asadora.

« How do we save international football? Here is a simple alternative to scrapping it totally.
And so for the fifth time in four seasons I've bought a Wembley ticket – and without airmiles »
More state aid for another club stadium, and perhaps a little local difficulty for Tottenham?
Everton look to become the latest Premier League to benefit from state aid. West Ham, Liverpool and Manchester City have paved the way in terms of stadia deals that have been supported by greater or lesser amounts from tax payers money; now Everton have been promised part of the cash that English tax payers seem perfectly willing to hand out to football clubs, without any protest.
Liverpool City Council has now agreed the plans for Everton's new ground. Unlike West Ham and Man City they won't get the ground for very little indeed – they will have to pay around £300m – but that is still below the market price for a new stadium.
The council has also shown its willingness to become a guarantor for the bank loans that will be required. It is seen perhaps as a balancing up of the fact that Liverpool were at one stage owned by their bank, which because it has not been solvent for years, was owned by and paid for by the tax payer. I am told (but haven't seen documents to verify it) that the local council also guaranteed loans for the recent rebuilding of Anfield). Mind you, some people deny this.
Everton have of course been involved in all sorts of schemes to move the club for year – Kirkby was one venue, King's Dock another. And to be fair, Arsenal themselves looked at various locations before settling on what became the Ems, with a stadium beyond Cockfosters being one option, and a rebuilding of Highbury another (although the latter was scuppered by the local council).
Of course run down areas such as the land surrounding some of the River Mersey do need redeveloping, and sticking a football stadium there is certainly one way of helping this along. Apparently there is also hope of their being a cruise liner terminal next door – although having recently watched the gigantic cruise liners in Sydney Harbour surrounded by the iconic Harbour Bridge and Opera House, all in the brilliant New South Wales summer sunshine, and the plethora of outdoor bars, I wonder if the people on a cruise will appreciate a few days docked on the Mersey.
But anyway it is going to be "a world class, high quality, mixed-use waterfront quarter… competing with the likes of Hamburg, Boston, Toronto and Barcelona in terms of the scale and diversity of its waterfront offer and associated economy." So that's all right then.
And the scale of tax payers investment can be seen from the fact that the building of the first new road into the area will cost £18m alone. The next road will cost £20m and on and on…
Of course it is not all being done for Everton. The £400m being spent on a deep water container terminal is for the industry of the area, but it is notable that while Islington council would not move in its objections to the redevelopment of Highbury, and the final ok for the Ems only went through the council by a majority of one, (very much in keeping with the way Islington council tried to stop Arsenal moving to Highbury in the first place by supporting the Highbury Defence League), Liverpool council argued in their draft Liverpool plan last year that, "Both Goodison Park and Anfield stadia represent major tourist and visitor centres and as such play an increasingly important role in the economy of the city. The city council is keen to maintain this position by supporting the development plans of both clubs, where this will assist in the social and economic improvement of Liverpool in general."
Indeed I've often thought that much more could be made of the Arsenal museum, making it much brighter and open, but the problem is that there is no too much around the area other than Finsbury Park that attracts people in (although Untold has done its bit by promoting the quality of the Swimmer as a decent local pub). Liverpool are however planning to build a new theatre in the area, and that must be applauded, (at least by the likes of me).
And what will it mean to Everton?
I've run this chart before, but it always seems to me worth considering. What happens when clubs move to a new staduim?
Between 1935 and 1995 no major new football stadia were built. Since then we have had quite a few although not always accompanied by success on the pitch. Each new club assured its fans that they would "not make the mistakes" of those who had gone before, but most did.
"D3" and similar below means the third tier of English football. Where grounds have since changed their name the original name is used but place in italics.
Stadium Club Built Promotion/Releg
Riverside Stadium Middlesbrough 1995 Relegated 1997
Britannia Stadium Stoke City 1997 Relegated 1998
Reebok Stadium Bolton Wanderers 1997 Relegated 1998
Pride Park Stadium Derby County 1997 Relegated 2002
Stadium of Light Sunderland 1997 Relegated 1997
Madejski Stadium Reading 1998 Releg to D3 '98
JJB Stadium Wigan Athletic 1999 Won D3 2003
St Mary's Stadium Southampton 2001 Relegated 2005
KC Stadium Hull City 2002 Prom from D3 2005
Walkers Stadium Leicester City 2002 Relegated 2004
Etihad Stadium Manchester City 2003 Won League 2012
Liberty Stadium Swansea City 2005 Prom D4 2005
Emirates Stadium Arsenal 2006 FA Cups, 2014/15
Cardiff City Stadium Cardiff City 2009 Won D2 2012
It is also interesting that all this stadium building comes at a time when English teams are not doing very well in Europe.
Manchester City with a stadium gifted to them are out, Arsenal, having paid for their own stadium, are out, Tottenham about to move into Wembley en route for their new stadium, are out (twice). Man U, who have not moved since building Old Trafford in 1910 are still in the Europa, and so are Leicester with a new stadium in 2002. Chelsea, yet to start on their rebuilt stadium, didn't join in this season.
As for Tottenham they now have permission to play 27 home games at Wembley next season in front of 90,000 people for each game after Brent Council overturned its own rules to allow them in. No comment seems to have been made by the FA about what happens if Tottenham progress to the semi-final and final of the FA Cup, and would thus effectively be playing at home.
However there is a story doing the rounds that Tottenham, after all the effort of getting permission might not take up the Wembley offer. That might be because of the problems they had getting results at Wembley in Europe this season (just as Arsenal did in our two years at Wembley) but there is also a story (mentioned in the Guardian recently) that the club is assessing "whether their new stadium next to White Hart Lane will be completed in time for the start of the 2018-19 season."
As a result the paper argued, "Tottenham could yet stay at their current ground next season and play home games at Wembley in 2018-19, before moving into the new stadium for the 2019-20 campaign."
That notion has only just emerged. I wonder if work is going a little more slowly than previously anticipated. But it was just one suggestion in one paper, and you know what the papers are like.
And so for the fifth time in four seasons I've bought a Wembley ticket – and without airmiles

So you write about Arsenal winning the Cup…but nothing about Wigan winning the Cup or Leicester winning the League…….. Then Again you are talking about state aid to Everton. You do know that Liverpool Council will recieve 4 mill £ a year…..hardly state aid isn't…
Just one more Tony, Manchester United's Old Trafford was bombed during WW" and had to be rebuilt, during which time they played at Maine Road. On completion they ended up with a new ground on the same site.

Liverpool Council pay not one penny to fund EFC's new stadium. In fact the will get £4.4 million a year for 40 years to act as guarantors. If it all goes belly up the Council will have first call on all of EFC's collateral – players, ground, etc, which exceeds the projected £300m building costs. So it is a good deal for the city. So, if you choose to comment on it, get your facts right.

Mr. Atwood,
You really should do some basic research into the financing model for this EFC stadium project before publishing such an inaccurate version of events.
The LCC council report is out there for all to read, in fact, if you read it, you may feel a tad embarrassed.
In short, this will not cost the taxpayer any additional money, it will however earn LCC £4m per annum.

The Tottenham project is interesting and to be fair to them is hugely ambitious. My understanding is that the d day in terms of them signing up for Wembleynesxt season is just 7 days away.
Whilst I don't agree with your take on a number of issues one things many of your articles do is stimulate my thought processes.
The Spurs reluctance to sign up to Wembley seemed odd . My limited digging suggests that a couple of weeks ago local government wanted proof that funding was in place for what is now a £750 million project.
Daniel Levy responded by confirming that the company arranging finance (The Tavistock Group) have hardened their view and clearly are concerned as to the level of funding required for a company with a turnover of £250 million. In other words there is a clear financial risk in the project.
The suggestion clearly is that Levy and or Lewis are going to have to sell a% of their shares to part finance the project or ( my reading ) possibly they may well have to sell a player or two.
The etihad stadium wasn't paid for by tax payers, it was built with national lottery funding. City in fact pay the council to rent the stadium. So far from benefiting from a handout from the tax payers they actually contribute a large sum to council funds.
Tony Attwood
Ian, I think the people who buy national lottery tickets are tax payers
I will try and explain a little further the situation as I understand it.
Liverpool is considered by some to be what the Guardian has called a "cash-strapped local authority". But because it is a local authority, and local authorities do not go bust as private companies can do, (because the government will always bail them out) the authority has a higher credit rating, than many companies and thus get charged a slightly lower rate of interest than private companies.
A Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) company is being set up with the council in it, to help get the loans at more favourable interest rates. But the SPV which is part owned by the council, has costs and part of those costs will be paid by the council at the very least at the start. Likewise if anything goes wrong (and as the table in the article showed, this happens more often than not) Everton might not be able to pay their share, in which case the council will be having to pay. As security against this Everton have to start paying into the SPV company, but there is still a risk, because Everton will not be paying all the cost of the stadium into the SPV. If for example Everton followed the examples of some other clubs with new stadia and got relegated then as has been confirmed in various publications the council would have to pay off the debt.
It is true that the council would then be the sole owner of the SPV, and some suggest that this could be beneficial. But if it is just the land and the stadium is not yet built, the land would probably be worth less than before because the development has failed. If the stadium does exist and Everton occupy it Everton's ability to repay would depend on income.
Whichever way you look at this, Liverpool council money is going in because they will be paying part of the set up charge of the SPV (they cannot simply lend their name to the SPV to get the lower interest rates) and then it is taking the risk of nothing going wrong. Plus it has all the costs of setting a deal like this up, which has to go through the council, otherwise the council cannot claim the lower interest rates.
I am aware it is being presented otherwise, but we have seen this before with other stadia, and generally it does not represent a happy story for tax payers either at the start or at the end. We can all remember how some of the earlier Liverpool FC projects were set up; one rarely gets the whole story, but the way such projects work out is never a bad guide to what will happen.
SPVs are dangerous!

Spurs will be playing at Wembley next season. No question about it.
The stadium construction is, by all accounts, a little behind schedule in some respects and a little ahead of schedule in others. Overall, I believe that the club and project managers, Mace, are reasonably satisfied with progress thus far. There is a little over 16 months before the start of the 2018-19 season – more than enough to complete the three quarters of the stadium currently under construction.
The concern has always been about the the single tier end, the sliding pitch and the roof, construction of all of which cannot even begin until after the final home game against Manchester Utd. But since that concern will be exactly the same whether Spurs leave at the end of this season or the next or the one after that, there is nothing to be gained by delaying the move.
That Spurs have yet to confirm that they will take up the Wembley option is somewhat puzzling, I guess, but it is most likely just Levy being ultra cautious and / or adopting a negotiating stance – as is his wont.
Jim B
As I said in an earlier post the Spurs project is hugely ambitious but with that ambition there appears to be additional challenges from finances to project time limes
The additional expense and configuration of a stadium for 2 NFL games a year seems strange having said that I read that Levy may well be gambling that a readily equipped NFL stadium would help enhance the business case should Spurs bid for a the much discussed Eureopean NFL franchise.
In respect of timelines that's an interesting one. To deliver the project completed and with the appropriate licences having run test events in time for the start of season 2018 for me seems extremely tight.The PL rules do not allow a club to play their games at two or more grounds in the same season.
Most projects of this size and indeed of lesser complexity would allow around 9 months as a minimum once construction was completed to carry out the internal fittings.Chelsea are allowing 10 months to carry out this phase of their rebuild.
The fact that there are whispers that Spurs want to build a year contingency in the Wembley deal is an issue as is the rumour that the moniey raised through ENIC taking increased equity and other sums raised for the initial stages of construction is as anticipated in the project plan, exhausted coupled with the published exchange of an email exchange between Levy , London Mayors office and the local authority regarding the funds to complete the project only adds to the intrigue.
Of course rumours are rumours and not facts but until Spurs sign the contract with Wembley I wouldn't speak with any certainty about where Spurs play next season and with projects of this size more often than not run overtime and with the challenges the economy in the U.K faces keeping to budget will not be easy
Billy The Dog
That is a very interesting commentary – and it makes me wonder about where Chelsea want to play during their rebuild 3 years. If Tottenham get a deal to play at Wembley for two years, then that excludes Chelsea – Brent Council did give Tottenham the right to play the matches to full crowds, but I can't imagine there is any way in which Brent would give two clubs the right to play at the ground in one season. That would be electoral suicide. So Chelsea could object, which would mean, if Tottenham do need an extra year, Milton Keynes is back on the agenda.
My understanding albeit limited is that Chelsea wanted exclusive use ,inPL terms of where they play for the three seasons they say the rebuild of SB will take.Ofcourse they may well have to compromise
That's the first part of the whole debate around the one season Spurs want to play away from WHL.For as I say earlier that really is a challenging timeline
Ok we know that construction has started at WHL but clearing the current infrastructure will take time as will the groundworks and indeed the siting of services to facilitate the new structure.
For comparison Chelseas stadium rebuild is in 4 distinct phases and will require 3 full seasons away Chelseas current thinking is as follows. 1 )Oct 17-Oct 18 when playing at the stadium to create walkways over the exiting rail and underground tracks and demolition of buildings dotted around the site such as the hotels.
2)June 18-Oct 20 demolish the current stadium itself and build the new one
3) December 20- July 21 Fitting out the stadium and remaining external works
The reason I detail Chelseas plans is so you can see the sort of time lines being planned for SB. Ok Spurs have started the works already but there is still significant works to be stated let alone completed. I am no project manager but you cant help but feel that there is one massive section in the risk register around completion on time and that then comes back to how long will Spurs need to be away from WHL
.Had Chelsea not also need a temporary home then it wouldn't be an issue but the fact that Chelsea want to sign an exclusive deal over 3 years muddies the water.
I am still far from sure where the two clubs will play but here's an interesting fact that SB is closert to Wembley than WHL and WHL is closer to the Olympic Stadium than it is to Wembley.
I still wouldn't rule anything out or indeed anything in
– The only significant added expense of configuring the new WHL to meet NFL needs is the sliding pitch. And that will more than pay for itself in time. Not only will there be a MINIMUM of 2 NFL games there for the first ten years of the stadium's existence but the versatile surface will allow for quick and easy conversion for all manner of events – sports or music. – without harming the grass playing surface. Besides which, the NFL tie up will allow Spurs to sign a far more valuable naming rights deal. Could be worth an extra £50m + over ten years.
– Fit out of some internal areas is already underway! With at least 15 months remaining before the first test event is likely to be held, progress is well within your expected time frame.
– Spurs don't "want" to negotiate a contingency of an extra year at Wembley. They did so from the outset, many months ago. It isn't a sign that the project is slipping dangerously behind schedule. It was simply a sensible precaution at the time of agreeing the terms of the contract.
– The email exchange between Levy and the Mayor / TfL / Haringey was simply Spurs highlighting the fact that the other parties involved in the regeneration of the area had not, at that time, kept their side of the bargain. The promised redevelopment of WHL station has not even begun. The good news is that the email seems to have done the trick, with the relevant parties being stung into action.
– As to funding, there's little doubt that costs have risen significantly as a consequence of Brexit, overtime and design improvements. But all sources are suggesting that funding isn't an issue. The money is there – even if eventually from no other source than Tavistock Group itself. Besides which, you have to take into account the club's increasing ability to service debt. Improved TV deals adding at least £40m per annum; £30m per annum kit deal from next season (as opposed to the current £10m); circa £60m extra per annum from the new stadium etc etc. Spurs' income will be in the region of £350m once they have settled into the new stadium – more than adequate to pay interest on and repay any debt drawn down while still remaining competitive on the pitch.
I repeat, Spurs will be playing at Wembley next season. There is nothing to be gained from delaying the move. The three quarters of the stadium currently under construction is on schedule and will be ready in ample time. The remaining quarter, plus sliding pitch and roof, cannot even be started until Spurs have vacated the current stadium. That dilemma will remain whether Spurs move out this summer or next or the one after that. So they will move this summer.
Staff and contractors at the club have been told that they will have to vacate within 12 hours of the final game, against Man Utd. Local residents have been sent details of road closures necessitated by the demolition works. The evidence is overwhelming. Spurs are moving out.
The released photos of the internal fit, as I understand is one defined area.
As for funding The Tavistock Group is quoted in that email exchange as having hardened its stance in view of the potential borrowings for a company with a £250 million turnover. That doesn't suggest that funds won't eventually be there just that they will be more expensive.
The funding was supposed to have been in available as long ago as last November but as recent as late February the funding was still not in place
The configuration for NFL , as I understand it is far more than just the pitch indeed I believe there will be a distinct and dedicated area behind the scenes incluging NFL locker rooms as well as support/ medical and administrative suites.
Come Friday we will know a lot more for that is the last date the agreement with Wembley can be signed.
– There have been no officially released photos of the internal fit out. An unofficial photo was posted on twitter a few days ago. But that doesn't mean that the area shown in the photo is the only area that is currently undergoing work. In fact, the person who posted the photo added that internal work was a lot further along than many would have thought.
– The added cost of installing the NFL changing rooms, medical areas etc is, in the context of the overall construction, pretty small. Maybe a million or two. As I said, the only materially significant cost of the NFL tie up is the sliding pitch.
You're correct to say that completing the southern end of the new stadium in 15 months will be a challenge. However, anyone old enough to remember the early days of the Premier League, just after the Taylor Report had delivered its verdict, will have seen that plenty of stadia all over the country had new stands built over the same 15 month timescale. It's by no means an impossible ask.
In respect of the southern end of the new WHL, the earth works will be comparatively straightforward since the stand will not have a basement; it will have a steel frame structure topped with SPS terracing. So once groundworks are complete, it should go up very quickly. And the fit out should be fairly rapid too since there will be no high end corporate areas to slow progress. The sliding pitch will be on preformed concrete trays (one has already been delivered). So again, installation should be relatively quick.
The biggest concern, I guess, would be completing the cable net roof in time. Without it, Spurs won't get permission to play games at the new stadium. But so long as the weather isn't especially uncooperative, the builders should have ample time. Of course, there might be a few non essential jobs unfinished come late August, when the stadium hosts its first competitive game – much as there have been at Anfield this season – but that wouldn't prevent Spurs from moving in.

May be Everton could raise fund through sales of their top earners ? Heard in the local news this morning that Arsenal are to bid for Ross Barkley !
And Kasper Schmeichel , too .

About Acupuncture
Was born in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Her father was an officer in the Canadian army and she spent her early years moving and having to create new communities of teachers and friends. This skill, though difficult to master at such an early age, has given her insight into and compassion for the struggles of youth and their peers. She was fortunate to encounter many different cultures being educated in different parts of Canada and Europe. She attended Concordia University in Montreal and graduated in 1969 with a B.A. in Psychology and Sociology.
Linda married in 1971 and spent a year travelling with her husband through Europe and Asia. Once again her nomadic beginnings helped her to integrate a variety of experiences, from chanting with the monks at the Dalai Lamas' monastery in Dharmsala and learning meditation to calm the mind and body; to studying Tibetan culture and medicine in Nepal.
Upon her return, she bought and transformed a 200 acre farm into a productive organic endeavor, at a time when little was known about the benefits of being organic. At the same time she studied midwifery with her local doctor and apprenticed with him for many years. Linda had the honor of witnessing and understanding the preciousness of life and birth. She has three children, all born at home.
She moved to Florida in 1994 shortly after her eldest son was diagnosed with juvenile diabetes. In her search to understand the causes of diseases, she enrolled in The Community School of Traditional Chinese Healthcare where she received a Masters in Chinese medicine and graduated in 1998. Linda's journey did not end there. She founded her own Center for Oriental Medicine in Boca Raton, Florida. As an acupuncture physician and herbalist she began treating patients and helping them towards wholeness and health.
Using the meridians of the body she began working with Harmonic and vibrational Medicine. This system of healing, known as Acutonics is a new system rooted in the great scientific, intellectual and intuitive traditions of the East and West. This system has the power to impact our minds, our hearts and our very beings at the cellular level. This can open us up to a healing that can extend beyond the individual to the planet itself.
Since her work in midwifery, Linda has had a special place in her heart for young woman and children. Their vulnerability and their purity must be protected and respected. Theirs is such a unique view of the world. Vibrational medicine has allowed many of her young patients to transition easily from childhood to teenager to adult; keeping them balanced in mind and body.
These young people are our future. They can reflect the best of the mentors that surround them. Linda's greatest satisfaction comes from guiding and balancing the minds and bodies of young people towards their own health and strength.

A: OK, problem solved.
It turned out to be that an old /etc/ssh/ssh_config file was used. Somebody have added a proxy to it towards our firewall, probably during testing and forgot to remove it.
Shame and sorry for the question.
