As discussed on the History of the Community Centre page, development began on the property in 1996, with the construction of the main building and initial (west) hockey pen. Various versions of the original 1986 Site Development Plan were developed, with concepts including a baseball diamond at the north end of the property, tennis courts and access from Cloverwood at the centre of the property. Community surveys were initiated in 2001 to solicit input from residents on site development. Several open houses were also organized to further facilitate community input. Based on discussions and feedback the first soccer field was installed in 2002 and the new hockey pen was also installed at this time, as well as a gravel path along west property line.
From 2002-2007 approximately $500,000 was invested in developing the site, including a second soccer field, the Cloverwood entrance and parking lot, the play structure area, and grading, sodding and tree planting. The basketball court was funded by the WMBA by the WRCC submitting a winning application to this organization.
In 2007 the Interpretive Trail concept was initiated, and details can be found on the Whyte Ridge Interpretive Trail page. In general, the concept was to install an interpretive trail involving a pathway, native prairie plantings and interpretive signage. In 2009 and 2010 the initial phase of the plan was implemented, involving a pathway and seeding with native prairie. In addition, a "butterfly garden" was established at the south entrance to the path. Unfortunately the butterfly garden became overgrown with weeds and the second phase of the interpretive trail was not completed.
The most recent phase of the landscaping plan was initiated in 2014 and consisted of the following elements:
Installing new native trees;
Installing new native shrubs/saplings;
Establishing a new "butterfly garden" and repairing the weed-filled bed near Fleetwood;
Establishing a new area of native prairie grasses and maintaining the existing prairie area;
Tidying up the existing limestone pathway and constructing an extension to the new butterfly garden;
Creating a resting spot on the pathway where we'll install some interpretive signs; and
Installing new benches.
Installing Native Trees
In 2014 the City installed 16 new trees and removed and replaced some trees that had died from the previous phase of the project. Most of the new trees installed by the City were elm trees. Elm trees have historic value and Winnipeg reportedly has one of the largest populations of American elm trees in North America – primarily due to several decades of effort to control the spread of Dutch elm disease. Many of the older streets in Winnipeg are lined with elm trees. While the intent at the Community Centre is to use native species, in this case the City advised that "discovery elm" would be used rather than American elm. Discovery elm is a non-native hybrid of American elm, resistant to Dutch elm disease. Hopefully this compromise is acceptable and over the years the trees, lined up along the west pathway, will grow to an impressive 20 m high with a 10-20 m spread and be reminiscent of this historic relationship between the elm and Winnipeg's streets.
Installing trees
Based on advice by the City of Winnipeg Forestry Technical Services the following native species were installed: skyfast cottonwood, American basswood, bur oak, white spruce, silver cloud maple, Lord Selkirk sugar maple, and fallgold black ash. Locations included the following:
6-7 trees on the west side of property along Cloverwood fence line – extending the new trees currently being installed by the City (elm species);
2-3 trees on the east side of property – at the centre line of north soccer field;
3 trees on the NE corner of property;
2-3 trees to the north-centre of the property – eventually screening the To-le-do building;
2-3 trees on the NW corner of property; and
3 trees to the west of the west hockey pen.
Installing Native Shrubs/Saplings
The City of Winnipeg agreed to supply 150 shrubs/saplings consisting of the following native species: Manitoba maple, green ash, bur oak, chokecherry, pincherry, buffaloberry, dogwood, snowberry. These were installed in areas immediately surrounding the trees as natural understorey, in an effort to naturalize the perimeter areas of the property. The WRCC intends on requesting more saplings from the City in 2019 to further naturalize the north end of the property.
Installing shrubs
Establishing New Butterfly Garden
The Site Development Master plan included the establishment of a feature "butterfly garden" located in the centre of the property. The location provides a sheltered spot that should protect butterflies from the wind. The plan involved installing plants such milkweed species, Canadian goldenrod, black-eyed susan, common yarrow, phlox, asters, coneflowers, blazingstar, sage, stonecrop, lilacs and joe-pye weed to attract butterflies and provide food and habitat.
Establishing an Area of Native Prairie Grasses
As indicated, from 2008-2009 an initial phase of native prairie grasses was installed, from the south east end of the property along the east fence line. The initial year was used to prepare the site and included active weed control to make sure that the site did not become infested with perennial weeds, and erosion control with temporary cover-crop. This was continued in the second year, which also included initial seeding of native grasses.
Based on a spring 2014 site inspection by the City Naturalist it appeared that the native grass installation was successful and the grasses were still present. The next phase involved extending the area of prairie grasses further north, along the eastern side of the property, in another two-year program. In the fall of 2014 the new area to the north (from the east fence line to centre line of north soccer field) was roto-tilled and the soil was amended with peat, and then seeded in the spring of 2015.
In 2019 the plan is to complete a final phase of prairie installation, surrounding the path connecting the east side of the property to the butterfly garden.
Constructing Pathway Extensions
The extensions and areas are primarily associated with the new butterfly garden and consist of a segment extending south from the trail bisecting the centre of the property, passing between the two beds proposed for this location. In addition, all of the existing pathways were updated by treating the overgrowing vegetation and adding a layer of crushed limestone. The plan also involved widening of the path at about the mid-point of the property to create the resting spot/node for one of the benches and interpretive signage. Details are discussed on the Interpretive Trail page.
Installing Benches
One bench would be installed around the central node on the property on the east side as the trail turns to the northwest from the east fence line, and another bench was installed at the new butterfly garden.

Other Community Centre Development Options
The Board is open to any suggestions for improving the Community Centre facility. If you have ideas please submit a comment under the Contact Us page.
While we don't currently have a Fundraising Director (hint, hint), based on research there are at lease 21 possible grant sources, including 15 for landscaping, three for programming and three for capital projects. Other sources could involve a Community fundraising campaign (as has been done in the past) and searches for private investment sources.
Prior to applying for funding there is a need to identify/list and prioritize projects first and the Board makes an effort to involve transparency and communication with Community Members who in effect have provided the funding and will benefit from any investment. This involves the use of the website, Spirit newsletter, and Community meetings/workshops. Please stay tuned for more information, and we look forward to any assistance you can provide.


Love is a much needed emotion in today's world and it is always welcomed. It is a great way of cashing in on your own moral savings. Many people donate to charities that they are passionate about, they also donate to remember a loved one or to remember their own troubles. It is one of the best ways to show the world that you do indeed care about something.
For many people, charity is a direct reflection of their own inner values. It is a deeply fulfilling exercise to be able to give to a cause that you are passionate about. In many cases people reflect on their own troubles and give away to charities that they can relate to morally. It also offers an insight into your own self and the areas where you could improve and get help.
Charity is a wonderful opportunity to give back to the world that we take so much from. Charity can be given to your old community, to your old school or even to your old neighborhood. It is also a sign that you have not forgotten where you came from and are grateful to your past.
Donations can help you earn respect in many areas. Philanthropy is a noble act that only people with a good heart can fall into and it also earns you a lot of respect from your peers and society in general. Other than that, it will also earn you the undying respect of the people or organizations that you donate to.

It's a different world than it was just ten years ago. We used to watch movies like "The Net" and think.... that could never happen.
OH, IT'S HAPPENING, ALRIGHT. And apparently we are pretty freaked out by it. Identity theft is pretty high on the list of things Americans are scared of: 19.6% said they're VERY afraid of it happening to them.
You gotta be careful with this stuff! Anyway, here's what you need to know, and don't blow it off! The site is called Family Tree Now, and they boast the largest collection of genealogy records anywhere, and they're all 100% free to search. Now here's the issue, apparently they have all your information, and it's all there for anyone to view.
I looked at it, and I saw my name, my sister's first married name, my cousins, seven old addresses, tons of stuff. It was a little neat at first ("Oh, I forgot about Market street..."), but then I realized that anybody could take that information and bilk me by trying to fill out credit card applications or something.

Q. What age does eye sight stabilizes? I was just wondering at what age does your eye sight usually level off and stop getting worse? Any ideas much appreciated!
A. It will stabilize in a few years-age of 26-27.That is the average age people perform lasik surgery.
It is also the age the eye is fully grown.
Don't worry it will not get much worse maybe about -0,75.
Q. What can you do to make your eye sight better? My eye sight isn't that great. Is there anyway to improve it, like eating certain foods or drinking certain drinks?
A. There is something called the Bates Method. It is a combination of relaxation and exercises with the eyes. Depending on the problems you have with your eyes it may help. Do an internet search on Bates Method and you will get some info on it and a couple years ago I actually found a place I downloaded a description of some of the exercises.
Q. My vision is blurry and I see zigzag lines, what is it from? Every now and again, usually after sitting a few hours in front of the computer or not sleeping enough at night, I start getting blurry vision. I see zigzag lines in front of my eyes and it can take sometimes an hour to go away. What is this from?
A. It sounds like you have a migraine. A migraine that comes with blurry vision and zigzags (an aura) is called a classic migraine. The aura of migraine typically lasts from 20 minutes to an hour. Some patients have prolonged aura symptoms that can last hours to days. The aura also typically ends before the headache itself begins. When migraine aura symptoms are prolonged or last into or through the headache phase these types of migraine are commonly referred to as complicated migraines.

Words For Their Own Sake
by VERBATIM Editor | Games |
John Konrad Kern
Strip a word of its meaning and etymology and what do you have? You have a collection of alphabetic characters arranged in a unique order. Devoid of definition, however, these strings of letters have virtually no utility. But I am here to tell you they are not useless. They can be as entertaining as all get-out.
What you do is go through a reputable collegiate dictionary (I used Webster's Ninth) word by word selecting those that appeal to you solely because of their sound, appearance, rhythm, spelling, construction, or evocation of interesting, pleasant, or amusing feelings. This is a tedious and time-consuming process, but it also is fun. You will be surprised at your selections and tantalized by your reasons for choosing them. You'll find, though, that the hardest. part is to consistently ignore all meanings, a requirement vital to the success of this adventure. When using the dictionary, you must discipline yourself to look at nothing but the word itself and its pronunciation. And equally important, you must consciously disregard any meanings you already possess in your memory.
After you have gone through every word in the entire dictionary and have compiled a list of all the words you selected, you make two or three additional cuts to get the number of your most-liked words down to whatever number you want as your final list. In my case I ended up with 857 on my first list, and after two more cuts had 100 words left.
I then decided to pick the 28 words that were my final favorites from that list and these are shown below. This exercise is similar to playing solitaire, except that this game can be played only once, unless you have partners who go through the same procedure and afterwards you all compare your respective final lists. That can be a lot of fun.
If you would be interested in playing this game and then sending a copy of your final list to me, I'll be glad to keep a cumulative record of all words selected by everyone who does this. Then after every four months,, I will let each of you know the total list of selected words and how many players selected each one. Send your list and your postal address to me in care of our obliging editor, Erin McKean. [Send to either U.S. or U.K. address.–Ed.]

Че́рчилл () — национальный парк в штате Виктория, Австралия.

Парк занимает площадь 2,71 км² и является предпоследним по площади национальным парком штата (меньше него только  — 1,52 км²).

Парк расположен в 30 километрах юго-восточнее центра Мельбурна, с севера ограничен городком , с юго-востока — городком , с запада — заказником Данденонг-Полис-Паддокс, с востока — национальным парком Листерфилд. В северо-восточной части парка находится заброшенный карьер, разрабатывавшийся с 1912 по 1915 года, несколько фундаментов от сопутствующих зданий, можно различить остатки узкоколейки, по которой из карьера вывозилась порода<ref>Scoresby Tramway  на сайте app.box.com</ref>.

Парк был основан 12 февраля 1941 год под названием Данденонг'', а в 1944 году был переименован в нынешнее название в честь британского политика сэра Уинстона Черчилля. До образования парка на этом месте располагались загоны и выпасы для полицейских лошадей.

В парке обитают 173 вида птиц, в том числе гривистая утка, серая кряква, золотобрюхая зарянковая мухоловка и красная розелла; млекопитающие — ехидны, валлаби и кенгуру.

In Islam Is a Foreign Country, Zareena Grewal explores some of the most pressing debates about and among American Muslims: what does it mean to be Muslim and American? Who has the authority to speak for Islam and to lead the stunningly diverse population of American Muslims? Do their ties to the larger Muslim world undermine their efforts to make Islam an American religion? Offering rich insights into these questions and more, Grewal follows the journeys of American Muslim youth who travel in global, underground Islamic networks. Devoutly religious and often politically disaffected, these young men and women are in search of a home for themselves and their tradition. Through their stories, Grewal captures the multiple directions of the global flows of people, practices, and ideas that connect U.S. mosques to the Muslim world. By examining the tension between American Muslims' ambivalence toward the American mainstream and their desire to enter it, Grewal puts contemporary debates about Islam in the context of a long history of American racial and religious exclusions. Probing the competing obligations of American Muslims to the nation and to the umma (the global community of Muslim believers), Islam is a Foreign Country investigates the meaning of American citizenship and the place of Islam in a global age.
The declaration of a "War on Terror" in the aftermath of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks brought sweeping changes to the American criminal justice and national security systems, as well as a massive shift in the American public opinion of both individual Muslims and the Islamic religion generally. Since that time, sociologist Saher Selod argues, Muslim Americans have experienced higher levels of racism in their everyday lives. In Forever Suspect, Selod shows how a specific American religious identity has acquired racial meanings, resulting in the hyper surveillance of Muslim citizens. Drawing on forty-eight in-depth interviews with South Asian and Arab Muslim Americans, she investigates how Muslim Americans are subjected to racialized surveillance in both an institutional context by the state and a social context by their neighbors and co-workers. Forever Suspect underscores how this newly racialized religious identity changes the social location of Arabs and South Asians on the racial hierarchy further away from whiteness and compromises their status as American citizens.
Rogue states pursue weapons of mass destruction, support terrorism, violate human rights, engage in acts of territorial aggression, and pose a threat to the international community. Recent debates and policy shifts regarding Iraq, North Korea, Syria, Iran, and Afghanistan reflect the uneven attempts to contend with regimes that pursue deviant behavior. In this timely new work, Miroslav Nincic illuminates the complex issues and policy choices surrounding clashes between international society and states that challenge the majority's espoused interests and values. As conventional approaches to international relations lose their relevance in a changing world, Nincic's work provides new and necessary frameworks and perspectives. Nincic explores recent events and develops theoretical models of contemporary asymmetrical power relations among states to offer a systematic account of the genesis, trajectory, and motivations of renegade regimes. He discusses how the pursuit of policies that defy international norms is often motivated by a regime's desire for greater domestic control. From this starting point, Nincic considers states' deviant behavior through two stages: the first is the initial decision to defy key aspects of the international normative order, and the second is the manner in which subsequent behavior is shaped by the international community's responses. In addressing attempts to control pariah states, Nincic assesses the effectiveness of sanctions and military responses. He provocatively argues that comprehensive economic sanctions can lead to a restructuring of the renegade regime's ideology and economy that ultimately strengthens its grip on power. In his chapter on military intervention, Nincic argues that force or the threat of force against a rogue state frequently triggers a protective reflex among its citizens, inspiring them to rally around the government's goals and values. Military threats, Nincic concludes, produce several kinds of consequences and their impact needs to be better understood.

Education is the most vital part of anyone's life, and everyone has a right to do so. Sometimes, shortage/lack of finance restricts a guy to continue further studies. Then what's now? What is the next alternate?
The only option is to work and earn money part-time. But the problem is that if a guy focuses on a job, he/she shall get tired and couldn't concentrate on academics. Therefore, it is mandatory to adopt such employment which is uncomplicated and to work and won't cause tiredness.
Here a question arises that is there any such opportunity? Yes, of course. There are many ways to generate income during studies. We are discussing maximum possibilities to manage the academic timetable and make money from home. Some of the preferences are fruitful for pupils to gain relevant experience for their own graduation and studying field.
Academic writing is the first and best option for a student. It allows earning income without interrupting the studies. There is no additional demand because whatever the things are required, the learner has already made them available for their homework. Many online websites are offering academic services to undergraduates as a freelancer or permanent basis. Anyone could easily join them or do it personally.
Numerous people like to start their own business. They hate employment. But they don't know which field will be workable for them. If a young guy has a creative mind, he/she would produce fantastic proposals for such seekers. Inhale some primary data of that person and suggest suitable occupations. In return, earn handsome income money.
Producing the excellent write up is not a piece of cake. Usually, folks got confused while composing. The new author is unaware how to mix-up the excitement in an article that sticks the reader till the end. But the college learners definitely have skills because they have scripted several assignments. They knew how to convert a boring theme into an interesting subject. Thus, such guys could become a content writer.
Voice-over artist is a fantastic job for those who have a tuneful or melodious voice. Many firms need of such people with an extraordinary vocal sound to work as a playback singer or voice changer in their own product's video. No stress, just use skills.
Part-time teaching would help a student to enhance the studies and finance both. If you are seeking a great profession, interesting to become a professor or research assistant in the future, then this choice is a good opportunity career. Furthermore, this is considered as one of the respectable profession.
It is also a good option to generate income online. Create a channel at YouTube and upload informative, knowledgeable, humorous, and creative videos. The more visual clip is attractive, more visitors like it that result in gaining importance in search engine result. The forum will give a significant profit against share on every 1000 views.
If you love photography, then it's a good benefit to gain experience as a student. Any event of 2 to 3 hours a day is easily manageable for a learner after his/her classes. Through these hours one must get experience as a photographer and should earn some money to facilitate education expenses.
Wedding, parties and house arrangements is a good and demanding career in this society. Either make your team or be an assistant of any management or organization for small events. It is a creative task and admirable for those who have a curiosity about it.
Numerous pupils engaged in practice as a delivery boy. It is casual employment for students and unemployed persons. Several companies seek two elements majorly in the man being hired. Initially, he must be energetic, probably a youngster. Moreover, he is already busy with other activity on a regular base. Hence, this man wants to have a job for 3 to 4 hours daily and can generate extra income. In this scenario, the learners are lucky to apply such company.
"SKY IS THE LIMIT". It is a great phrase/idiom. It means that nothing is impossible for a student. The earning opportunities are not only those that were mentioned previously. There is a distinct world above sky as well. Similarly, if any learner has a different skill with passion, he/she could achieve the target in a better way. Below are some other possibilities.
People of arts and designing shall quickly go for the field of painting. Those people who love painting and designing will gain experience initially in their education time. Paint something attractive over the canvas in the spare time and place it in the exhibition. Take the reviews of the visitors about it. Criticism should be more helpful for skills enhancement and make you a professional artist.
I.T. learners have another spare-time working possibility. If you have an interest in app development, establish an app and advertise it. Android and Apple both are common products nowadays. Make sure that the launched app is compatible with both products. Otherwise, it won't generate a good return.

Best Buy Plans to Nearly Double Number of Teen Tech Centers
By Best Buy December 13, 2016
Jacqueline Arana is a high school sophomore in Los Angeles who credits access to technology and advice from mentors for inspiring her goals of law school and filmmaking.
It wouldn't be possible without the Bresee Youth Center, which recently joined with Best Buy to create a Teen Tech Center. It's a state-of-the-art facility where students learn a wide range of tech skills, including digital filmmaking, 3-D design, coding and app development.
Jacqueline is already loving the new center and getting access to the latest tech, including being able "to use the cameras the professionals use."
More underserved teens like her will soon have access to free technology tools and training. Why? Best Buy announced Tuesday that it plans to open nine new Teen Tech Centers in 2017. The expansion will give Best Buy a network of 20 Teen Tech Centers nationwide. Plans are already underway to open centers in Atlanta and San Diego early next year. The company is targeting additional urban markets, such as Las Vegas and Pittsburgh, as well.
Tuesday's announcement came as Best Buy opened its newest Teen Tech Center in suburban Denver. It's the last of four new centers to open this year, joining Dallas, L.A. and Oakland, California.
As part of the Denver opening, Best Buy introduced new curriculum that teaches students how to create original pixel art and animation, starting with the design of a character. It will provide teens with skills that lay the foundation for potential careers as engineers, graphic designers, creative producers and architects. That curriculum will roll out to all Teen Tech Centers and Geek Squad Academy summer camps next year.
Teen Tech Centers are places to engage, inspire
Since 1995, Best Buy has invested nearly $300 million in the communities it serves. For the past five years, the company has focused its support on programs that use technology to inspire and engage underserved teens. The goal is to help them prepare for college and their future careers.
In the coming decade, 77 percent of all jobs will require technology skills, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. However, there's an opportunity gap for urban teens, many of whom lack tools like computers and internet connections or the skills to use them.
The Teen Tech Centers aim to address those disparities and turn potential into possibilities.
"We are going into neighborhoods where teens really don't have a lot of options," said Andrea Wood, Best Buy's director of community relations. "I've actually seen teens typing papers on their phones because that's the only access they have to technology."
And a Teen Tech Center isn't just a computer lab. It's a creative space where teens can explore their passions and develop marketable skills.
"I don't think I would have taken the path that I did if I wouldn't have had the center and these opportunities," Jacqueline said.

PREDICTED ACCIDENT IN MILTON ROAD
10/07/2020 03/12/2020 Naomi
Seven emergency response vehicles were involved in cutting out a driver from his Toyota following a head-on collision with a black Audi on July 9th.Witnesses stated that the black Audi sped off at high speed without stopping with the front bumper hanging off the car. The Toyota driver was taken to hospital with a suspected heart attack caused by the accident.In a submission to a speeding survey Last month, ACER warned Wokingham Borough Council that a fatality was imminent in Milton Road due to the excessive speed of cars in Whitegates. Please see ACER'S full report attached. Volunteers from ACER have offered to collect evidence of speeding required to install traffic calming measures, but the scheme appears to be on hold due to Police funding shortages.
WBC SPEED LIMIT REVIEW – 2020
Response from ACER, The Whitegates Residents Association
Roads in Whitegates, RG6, which have particular speeding issues are:
Milton Road and its continuation into Erleigh Court Gardens
Palmerstone Road
Pitts Lane
Whitegates is a part of Earley which borders Reading and is a 'gateway' into East Reading, which has particular problems with road congestion and rat running. Observing speed limits and looking out for pedestrians is not the priority for commuters. ACER welcomes this initiative on speeding and wishes to bring the following points to your attention.
Roads within Whitegates where excessive speed is an issue
There are densely populated roads within Whitegates which are currently popular as short cuts where speeding is a problem. These roads include Milton Road/Erleigh Court Gardens and Palmerstone Road. Speeds in excess of 40mph are not uncommon on these cut-throughs and there have been a number of serious collisions. The preferred speed calming measure would be to restrict Milton Road access at the corner of Erleigh Court Gardens, thus removing the race-track facility and directing commuter traffic to the wider bus route roads of The Drive and Culver Lane. Similarly, by discouraging Palmerstone Road use, traffic would have to use Church Road and Culver Lane which are wider and more suitable for commuter traffic. The alternative Eastcourt Avenue cut-through route used by no. 19a bus will need to be addressed e.g. bus and resident access only signage. Traffic congestion at the mini-roundabout at the end of Woodlands Avenue will also need to be addressed.
Pitts Lane by contrast is a wide and open road where speeding has been commonplace. White lines have recently been placed at the edge of the road with the aim of 'narrowing' the road and slowing down vehicles. Before and after speed traffic data will be required to determine if this traffic calming measure has been effective.
Pitts lane does have a 'reminder' in the form of an illuminated speed sensor sign which indicates '30' when a vehicle exceeds this limit. The sign was there before the white lines were painted and was seen to be ineffective. More effective are the speed indicators in Thames Valley Park and by Sonning Primary School in Pound Lane, which indicate the vehicles actual speed accompanied with a smiley face…or the converse. Courteous, amusing and helpful signs are memorable and therefore more effective.
Primary concern- Focus on speed limits
ACER understands from the News Release from Wokingham Borough Council dated 4th June 2020 that the primary concern is road safety and the focus of the Review is speeding. Whereas ACER accepts that speeding is a contributing factor to accident statistics, there are many other factors which can contribute to accidents, such as visibility at minor road junctions, separation of cyclists and pedestrians from vehicles, following too close, plus the perception of speed to drivers due to the features of the road.
ACER is concerned that to attempt to make roads safer just by modifying legal speed limits, will not achieve the desired aim of reducing accidents unless changes are carried out in conjunction with all aspects affecting road safety.
ACER has submitted papers to WBC in the last two years which have addressed traffic issues in a constructive manner. These include inputs to Local Traffic Plan 4 in September 2019, Proposals for Yellow Lines at road junctions in Whitegates in August 2019 and input to the proposed new Local Plan in March 2020. ACER hopes that this Speed Limit submission will be considered in conjunction with these other ongoing planning initiatives.
Adherence to Speed Limits and Speed Awareness
Drivers are notorious in their disregard of speed limits unless there is a high probability of getting caught e.g. by speed cameras, or, there are physical constraints such as speed cushions or alternating lane barriers. Such deterrents cost money to install and maintain so are not universally present. Many drivers who are on speed awareness courses for exceeding the 30mph limit are often not aware that they have unwittingly exceeded the speed limit. Until such times that all vehicles are fitted with audible warnings which alert the driver when they exceed the speed limit (as used in Singapore), an alternative means of alerting the driver to their speed is needed.
30mph for a reason
It is important for the public to be reminded that 30 mph is the standard speed limit in built up areas for a reason, which is that a car hitting a pedestrian at over 30 mph will usually kill the pedestrian. Of course, an impact less than 30 mph can still maim and cause life changing injuries
Road Design Incentives to Keep Within Speed Limits
The aim must be to ensure vehicles proceed instinctively at speeds appropriate to the local setting of the road. Drivers will speed up on wide open roads and proceed much slower along roads which appear more enclosed.
Speed indicators which indicate the vehicles actual speed accompanied with a smiley /angry face are more memorable and therefore more effective.
Drivers naturally drive slower if feeling hemmed in when driving down an avenue of trees. Roadside tree planting will go towards offsetting CO2 in line with WBC climate emergency measures as well as health benefits and creating an ambience of wellbeing. Pitts Lane has wide grass verges suitable for tree planting.
In densely built up areas, cars parked in the road provide a hemmed-in condition which will slow most drivers down. Parked cars can provide chicanes which slow all cars down. These conditions will not be met where cars park on grass verges and pavements.
Measures can be taken to pursue motorists who park on pavements, and measures can be taken to discourage routine parking on grass verges. Grass verges are an attractive feature in many parts of the borough, including Whitegates, but getting spoilt due to inconsiderate parking, and increased parking demand due to inadequate parking provision from extended properties or conversion to HMO's. Measures may be needed to allow parking on alternate sides of the street to allow enough room for emergency vehicles and to create chicanes instead of a straight road. This can be achieved while retaining grass verges.
The Philippines are following Japan in prohibiting vehicle ownership unless there is allocated off- road parking available. Until such time as the UK follows suit we have to manage on- street parking and make use of parking zones to slow the flow of traffic.
The provision of cycle lanes is to be applauded but they must be physically separated from motorised traffic, otherwise the roads can appear wider with consequent increase in traffic speeds. Ideally physical separation should be done using trees and shrubs, as in the Netherlands, but where this is not possible, waist level barriers as recently installed on Lower Earley Way can provide street narrowing as an interim measure.
Speed and reaction time
The speed of vehicles is only half the story. The other half is reaction time of the driver when presented with the need to brake unexpectedly. This delay in applying the brakes is typically one second regardless of driver or car make and model. At 30mph a car will have travelled 9 metres i.e. 2 car lengths before brakes are applied. This can result in a collision because drivers are travelling too close to the car in front, leaving insufficient time to brake. There needs to be more safety message emphasis on leaving enough space in front of a vehicle. Two seconds is recommended in dry conditions, more when wet.
Evidence Led Approach
ACER is well aware that in order to make a case for traffic calming measures there needs to be a documented history to back it up. In the case of road traffic accidents, the local accidents in recent years did not give rise to personal injury in most cases, so there are incomplete police records of the accidents.
In order to prevent a likely fatality, ACER members have applied for membership of Community Speedwatch in order that they can operate speed recording equipment to build up the evidence needed. Regrettably the officials running the scheme appear to be busy on other duties. Volunteers have been informed by the Police that; "due to organisational needs the recruitment… has had to be put on hold". There is also apparently a problem with kit availability.
As a result, the use of Speedwatch to put traffic calming in place before a fatal accident occurs is going nowhere. ACER notes that temporary CCTV traffic cameras were installed in Talfourd Avenue by RBC which was subsequently changed to one-way. ACER request similar CCTV evidence gathering if Speedwatch is not available.
Proposals to put double yellow lines at road junctions in Whitegates are broadly welcomed in order to increase visibility at junctions, where a number of accidents have occurred. However the impact on speeding would be negative, as increased visibility is likely to encourage faster driving.
Reading Commuter Traffic
Fundamental to traffic problems in Whitegates is the sheer volume of commuter traffic attempting to get in and out of east Reading. This can only be resolved in conjunction with RBC who have yet to get traffic moving in and out of east Reading using effective flyover solutions to by-pass bottlenecks, as implemented in Hong Kong and Manila.
A perpetual problem of speed limits and parking is enforcement. Without enforcement there is no deterrent, leading to repeated rule breaking. Unfortunately speeding and parking on pavements fall under the jurisdiction of the Police, who do not have enough money or resources to deal effectively with these motoring offences. Any fines resulting appear to go into central Government funds, rather than directly into the local police authority. Such a change could allow enforcement to be self- funding. This appears to be a matter for politicians to resolve and outside the remit of Local Government. What is now within the remit of local government is parking on yellow lines, however this is notably not enforced at the corner of Palmerstone Road and Culver Lane where visibility is frequently obstructed.
Local authorities are powerless to enforce speeding. Local Authorities can, however, enforce parking on yellow lines, but this is proven to be ineffective in Whitegates. Sadly, this brings into question the effectiveness of any new initiatives which may result from this Local Authority run Speed Limit review
The apparent focus on speed limits per se, evidently does not encompass many of the factors which affect the safety on our roads including road design, separation of cycle lanes, parking and Reading commuter traffic.
Roads in Whitegates which have particular traffic speed problems are Pitts Lane, Milton Road/Erleigh Court Gardens and Palmerstone Road
Proving the need for traffic calming measures will require evidence led data, particularly Community Speedwatch, which is not currently functioning effectively.
Public information on the reason for the 30mph limit plus the need to keep your distance to 2 seconds should be promoted on posters and videos via social media.
Without enforcement, any speed limit changes will not be effective. Enforcement is currently outside the jurisdiction of WBC

Cocktail Bars on Upper East
It isn't often that people venture over to the Upper East Side, and that's a shame. This area is filled with plenty of upscale shopping locales and a vibrant arts scene. More importantly, it's one of the booziest neighborhoods on the island.
All Manhattan apartments have one thing in common, they're close enough to catch a train to one of the greatest cocktails your lips have ever kissed. Here's a list of locations where you can enjoy a divine creation from the hands of a mixology master.
Caledonia Scottish Pub
This pub is known for one thing and one thing only, the best place to get your whiskey fix. From classic standbys to rare, barrel aged delicacies, you can find more than what you're looking for on their shelves. While you may want to drink the majority of their incredible selection straight, don't be afraid to let the barkeep fix your favorite up into something wonderful.
The Penrose
Surely you've heard the name before, it's synonymous with delectable dining and, you guessed it, cocktails. Hop over before happy hour ends to try a wide variety of the best mixed drinks in town. They have everything from a true Old Fashioned to a what just might be the best recipe for Bloody Mary in existence. The atmosphere is semi-upscale elegance, so your work suit will do just fine.
JBird Cocktails
Speaking of elegance, JBird is the place to go if you are a true cocktail enthusiast. Try out the Blackheart Machine, named by Rust Cohle, which features aged rum blended with coffee and Fernet Branca. Better yet, bring a friend and try out one of their two person cocktails. The Tiki Oasis Punch, an elaborate mix of what lightweights would call too much rum, is an excellent choice.
JG Melon
JG Melon breathes the air and shares the pule of New York City. When it comes to classic bars, this is it. While most might be tempted to head straight for a burger and beer, you know better. Order yourself a mixed drink and relax on one of their futons like a real New Yorker.
Jones Wood Foundry
Whatever British pub you like to frequent pails in comparison to Jones Woods. The makers of their to-die-for self names IPA aren't afraid to step away from the beer tap and whip you up a Raspberry and Lavender Gin Fizz, Pimm's Cup, or Bramble. Plus, you can dine on bar friendly eats like their lamb and rosemary pie.
Guthrie Inn
This is the cocktail side of the ABV-Earl's-Guthrie family. With classics like Sazeracs and Sidecars supported by an all-star original cast, there's no end to after work suaré. If you're feeling overwhelmed on your first few visits, which you probably will, try a Sharpie Mustache. It features rye, gin, and Meletti tiki bitters.
The Gilroy
This one is fairly new to the Upper East Side area, but most certainly worth a visit. Their menu features a wide variety of Negroni options from barrel-aged to bottled that pair amazingly with their fresh oysters or mac and cheese with Irish cheddar and Asiago. An indulgence of flavors is the best way to describe a night out at The Gilroy.
Bondurants
When it comes to putting more hair than you already have on your chest, bourbon is a sure fire way to do so. Bondourants is well known for craft beer and southern foods, but their list of bourbons is incredible. Take them straight, mix them up, do whatever you like but make sure to try their Boudin meatballs.
Dorrian's
Many people avoid Dorrian's for it's air of show off-y elegance and older crowd who turn up their noses at the semi-formal. Don't let that stop you from going in, though. Why? If there's one thing this kind of pompous, old time location can do it's make a classic cocktail. It isn't easy to find a real Old Fashioned these days, unless you hop into Dorrian's. Then it's pretty easy.
Bemelmans
If you crave sophistication but prefer a more pleasant atmosphere, give Bemelmans a try. Their cocktail program is refined and as fancy as they come, which means you'll be able to try out something new regularly. Don't worry if your wardrobe doesn't have something that matches the occasion. You won't care three drinks in.
Manhattan Apartments
After trying out this spectacular bar scene (this article didn't even include the craft beer havens and all-wine bars), you might find yourself wanting to move to the Upper East Side once your current lease is up. Keep things as classy as the last cocktail you had and check out Renoir House. It's the quintessential New York City experience with modern touches and top rated amenities you won't find anywhere else. From iced white quartz countertops to private terraces and under cabinet lighting, every detail of these newly redesigned apartments have everything a home in the city should.
