New: £400,000 campaign to light up Harrogate's war memorial and Royal Hall
An impression of what a floodlit Harrogate war memorial would look like.
The Harrogate Advertiser is backing a £400,000 campaign to light up the town's war memorial in a permanent and spectacular tribute to the fallen.
The Royal Hall Restoration Trust has joined forces with the newly-formed Harrogate and District Improvement Trust to run the project, and a public appeal will be launched in November to raise funds for the war memorial and the Royal Hall to be tastefully floodlit at night.
An impression of how a floodlit Royal Hall would like,
Russell Davidson, who chairs both trusts, said the timing of the appeal couldn't be more appropriate.
He said: "This is a very important year as it marks the centenary of the end of the First World War; the centenary of women first getting the vote; the centenary of the death of Sir Hubert Parry, who conducted the Royal Hall's opening concert in 1903; and the 10th anniversary of the restoration of the Royal Hall.
"What better way for Harrogate to mark these important dates than to light up these cherished landmarks? The Royal Hall Restoration Trust is limited to improving the Royal Hall so to achieve the proposals for the war memorial, the Harrogate and District Improvement Trust has been formed."
Mr Davidson said months of planning have culminated in some stunning creative designs. He said: "A number of specialist professionals have given their time and expertise, including Chartered Landscape Architect and Urban Designer Peter Owens, winner of the Landscape Institute's award for best large scale development, for the Royal Stoke University Hospital.
"Also working on the project are Stainton Lighting, whose past projects include Middlesbrough's war memorial and the Durham Cathedral and Castle World Heritage Site.
"I think both companies have done a brilliant job. In regards to the war memorial, the simple illumination to make it look like a sword, coupled with the option of a red surround during poppy week, is restrained and moving."
Mr Davidson said a full planning application for the project will be submitted in October, but a planning consultation is already under way.
The floodlighting appeal will be formally launched at the I Was Glad Parry Centenary Concert at the Royal Hall on November 15.
The project has already been given a financial boost by Harrogate Borough Council through support of a feasibility study.
The Chairman of Harrogate's Royal British Legion branch, Michael Comerford, said: "I think it is a brilliant idea. I think people walking and driving through the town centre will see the memorial lit up and reflect on the importance of Remembrance throughout the year."

Intel touts 8-core Xeon monster Nehalem-EX
Intel gave a demo yesterday of its eight-core, 2.3 billion-transistor Nehalem- …
Jon Stokes - May 28, 2009 1:25 pm UTC
Wednesday Intel took the wraps off the next iteration of its Xeon server line, the Nehalem EX, which will debut in the second half of this year. Nehalem EX has up to 8 cores, which gives a total of 16 threads per socket (with hyperthreading). That's a lot of threads in one socket, so it's good that Intel outfitted the chip with plenty of I/O and memory bandwidth in the form of four QPI links and two integrated memory controllers. Also helping to keep the cores fed is a 24MB cache.
The whole thing weighs in at 2.3 billion transistors, which is even larger than the record-breaking 2 billion-transistor "Tukwila" Itanium that Intel unveiled in February of last year. At the time, the quad-core Tukwila was Intel's largest processor, and the fact that an x86 part has caught up with it in size and will launch ahead of it (Tukwila is delayed yet again) says something about where Xeon is headed.
Nehalem EX will pack quite a performance wallop when it drops later this year, continuing x86's decades-long march into the very high end of the server market. I interpret recent remarks by IBM that x86 virtualization isn't ready for use in real mission-critical applications in light of this reality. Not that Nehalem-EX-based systems are an immediate threat to IBM's POWER line, but since the company sells systems based on both chips it will continue to take pains to stress the advantages of its own high-end hardware in the face of feature and performance increases from Intel. Drawing this distinction was particularly important this time around, since IBM participated in the Nehalem-EX reveal to tout a 64-core, 128-thread server of its own based on the new processor.
Here's the full Nehalem-EX feature bullet list:
Intel Nehalem Architecture built on Intel's unique 45nm high-k metal gate technology process
Up to 8 cores per processor
Up to 16 threads per processor with Intel� Hyper-threading
Scalability up to eight sockets via Quick Path Interconnects and greater with third-party node controllers
QuickPath Architecture with four high-bandwidth links
24MB of shared cache
Integrated memory controllers
Intel Turbo Boost Technology
Intel scalable memory buffer and scalable memory interconnects
Up to 9x the memory bandwidth of previous generation
Support for up to 16 memory slots per processor socket
Advanced RAS capabilities including MCA Recovery
2.3 billion transistors
On the AMD side of the fence, the six-core Istanbul will launch next week and will take on Intel's six-core Dunnington Xeon. Because Dunnington is a drop-in replacement for Intel's legacy, pre-QPI Xeon parts—it was introduced as a sort of stop-gap for the Xeon line while we waited for Nehalem to go multisocket—it'll be a much easier target for Istanbul than QPI-enabled, bandwidth-heavy Nehalem-EX. The latter chip will be well out of reach of Istanbul in terms of performance.

oh the sounds of the angry bee... love and hate those hubs.
hub must be a Profile or an old Hadley?
Met both these guys at Black Rock that day. Super Cool. Nice Work riding and filming!!
Yeah buddy! Black Rock is rad.
I think the hub might be either a CK or a Profile. Sounds almost as good as his riding.
That is one angry hub.

Covidiot: US Man Refuses to Wear Mask & Delays Flight For 45 Minutes; Gets Arrested
The man, identified as Joshua Colby Council, was rushing to board his fight at Salt Lake City International Airport on Wednesday night when a gate agent stopped and asked him to put on a face mask
Updated: November 30, 2020 9:32 AM IST
By PTI Email
A 44-year-old man was arrested after refusing to wear a face mask on a Delta Airlines flight heading from Salt Lake City to San Francisco in the US, a media report said. The man, identified as Joshua Colby Council, was rushing to board his fight at Salt Lake City International Airport on Wednesday night when a gate agent stopped and asked him to put on a face mask, the New York Post reported.

The agent followed the man, asking him to put on a mask because of the COVID-19 pandemic. He refused and continued to board the plane, the paper said. Once on board, the captain and flight attendants also requested him to wear a mask, but he refused.
The staff then called airport security to escort the man off the plane. He refused to leave his seat. Only when all the other passengers got up and walked out did he finally leave the plane, the paper said, citing police.
The incident delayed the flight for 45 minutes. "We apologise to customers for the delay on Flight 1382 on Wednesday as a passenger was removed from the flight for mask non-compliance, the airlines said in a statement. The man was released from the jail next morning. The COVID-19 death toll in the US since the pandemic's start is now more than 264,000. And nearly another 60,000 people could lose their lives over the next three weeks, according to an ensemble forecast published by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) this week.
The US on Friday marked the 25th day in a row with more than 100,000 new cases.

"77th Street Detectives Investigate Homicide"
Los Angeles: On Saturday, August 25, 2001, at approximately 1:50 A.M., Jose Esturado Rodriguez, 23 years old, was sitting in his car on the southeast corner of 59th Street and Estrella Avenue. A male Black suspect, armed with a handgun, approached from the west and fired multiple gunshots at Mr. Rodriguez, striking him in the upper torso. The suspect then fled the location westbound in a waiting vehicle driven by a second male Black suspect. The wounded victim drove his vehicle northbound Estrella Avenue where it came to rest against another vehicle parked on the street.
A relative of the victim who heard the shooting, responded to the victim's location. Seeing the condition of the victim, the relative moved the victim to his vehicle and drove away in an attempt to find a hospital. When no hospital could be located the relative called 911 from his cell phone. A Los Angeles Fire Department Rescue Ambulance responded to the victim's location, Washington and Vermont Avenues where they rendered aid. The victim was transported by the paramedics to a local hospital, where he died as the result of his injuries.
The motive for this incident appears to be gang related.
77th Street Homicide Detectives Armando Bernal and Blair McCormack are conducting the investigation. Anyone with information that may assist in the investigation is urged to call detectives at 213-485-1385, or the Watch Commander at 213-485-2389.
This information was provided by Detective M. V. Mahoney.
This press release was prepared by Information Police Officer Eduardo Funes, Media Relations Section, 213-485-3586.

Mar 23, 2015 | Fukushima Accident Updates | 0 comments
Tepco releases preliminary Muon images of F. Daiichi unit #1. Though blurry and difficult to visualize, the two Muon tomography units have separate images showing that most, if not all of the unit #1 core melted. Detector #1 shows no evidence of any of the melted then re-solidified material (corium) in the core barrel, while detector #2 indicates that some of the corium might still be there. The shape of the dense, steel-reinforced concrete Primary Containment Vessel and the reactor vessel side-walls are more clearly shown in both images. The Tepco handout says the relocation of the mass from its undamaged location agrees with prior Tepco computer simulations. However, the two images give no indication as to where the re-solidified corium might be currently located. Japan Times reports a Hosei University professor saying the images do not show the bottom of the reactor vessel, where the corium might have pooled and cooled. However, many Japanese news outlets are touting the images as proof of the core having melted completely through the bottom of the reactor pressure vessel's bottom head and accumulated on the concrete floor below. There is nothing in the Tepco release to support this conjecture. http://www.tepco.co.jp/en/nu/fukushima-np/handouts/2015/images/handouts_150319_01-e.pdf — http://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2015/03/20/national/tepco-confirms-nearly-fuel-melted-sank-vessel-fukushima-1-unit/#.VQwcSaMcQdU — http://the-japan-news.com/news/article/0002020969 — http://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/english/news/20150319_34.html — http://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2015/03/20/national/tepco-confirms-nearly-fuel-melted-sank-vessel-fukushima-1-unit/#.VQ1u5qMcQdU
Fukushima students find their radiation levels are normal. Five students at Fukushima High School were baffled that foreign teens could not believe life in Fukushima was back to normal. They contacted more than 200 students and teachers at websites in Japan, France, Belarus and Poland. Everyone had the same dosimetry as that used in Fukushima. Readings were taken between June and October, 2014. Background readings were extrapolated to annual exposures. Fukushima Prefecture ranged from 0.63 to 0.97 millisieverts per year, while France, Belarus, and Poland ranged between 0.51 and 1.17 mSv/yr. Within the prefecture, Fukushima City was 0.86 mSv/yr, while Nihonmatsu was 0.97 mSv/yr. Nihonmatsu borders the F. Daiichi exclusion zone. Ena, in Gifu Prefecture, is about 600 kilometers from Fukushima City and had a reading of 0.87 mSv/yr. One of the Fukushima students stated that the differences were insignificant. http://ajw.asahi.com/article/0311disaster/fukushima/AJ201503210039
Tokyo raises the ceiling on Fukushima loans to $75 billion. Previously, the limit was about $50 billion. The funds are being issued through the Nuclear Damage Compensation and Decommissioning Facilitation Corporation. The total includes $1 billion in interest that is expected to build up by 2044. To date, roughly $45 billion has been disbursed on evacuee compensation. In addition, another $1.6 billion has been spent on F. Daiichi site cleanup. The government hopes to recover about $20 billion through sale of Tokyo-owned Tepco stock, once the company's share price sufficiently recovers. Japan's Board of Audit says the current stock value of about $10 per share will have to double to recoup the needed funds. The Board says, "The government should give sufficient consideration to ensuring the recovery of the state funds and boosting Tepco's corporate value" to reduce the current taxpayer burden. It could take up to 30 years for Tokyo to be repaid all monies loaned to Tepco for evacuee compensation, site recovery, and rural decontamination. Tepco repaid about $415 million in 2014, and at that rate it will be 2044 before all monies will be recovered. However, continuing last year's rate of repayment is contingent on future restarts of units at Kashiwazaki-Kariwa station. http://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/english/news/nuclear.html — http://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2015/03/23/national/%c2%a5189-billion-in-public-money-spent-on-fukushima-cleanup-so-far/#.VRAAr6McQdU — http://www.tepco.co.jp/en/comp/images/jisseki-e.pdf
Tokyo has removed 20 food items from the list of items to be checked for radioactive Cesium. Those removed included broccoli, plums, and tea. The removals officially begin in April. There will be 45 items remaining on the list. Some, but not all, beef and milk will be tested depending on where the cattle were raised and what they are being fed. http://english.kyodonews.jp/news/2015/03/342613.html

Separation !
My heart goes out to the mostly defenseless victims of this latest terror wave in Israel and to the families of those who succumbed to their injuries. My admiration goes to the security services and MDA/Hatzola volunteers who are working round the clock to stem the flow of blood in the streets of Israel.
Officials and media pundits are still fussing about whether this is the Third Intifada or just a bad case of civil unrest. It is neither.
This is war.
To anyone with eyes in their head, this is nothing less than a guerrilla war being waged in streets all over Israel.
In any other country this would warrant emergency powers being declared by government, the suspension of habeas corpus and the interning of suspects in detention camps. Britain did no less for Northern Ireland in the 1970s.
In the case of Jerusalem, this means sealing off the Palestinian Arab areas, suspending all crossing rights and barring so-called Palestinians from public transport and municipal facilities and suspending their work permits. They have proved that they cannot be trusted to live among us and they will have created the very Apartheid with which they falsely labelled us.
There are plenty of Filipinos eager to take up the hospital jobs and plenty of Chinese workers willing to work on our building sites. These are people who love our people and our country. They don't sit up all night thinking of new ways to kill Jews.
Another subject fretting the officials and media pundits is how much incitement there is and by whom. Again I seek to differ. I am more concerned about 'enablement' than incitement.
It is the government which brought this upon Israeli citizens by ignoring the rock throwers for too long. By turning the other cheek to the nightly attacks on the light railway. By allowing Arab vandals to roam freely over the Mount of Olives cemetery, intimidating mourners without a policeman in sight. By tolerating the spate of car rammings and firebombings. And all that, set against the ignominy of prisoner releases, has totally eroded all deterrence and removed the fear Arabs once had of a Jewish soldier, border guard or policeman.
Much of this erosion of deterrence comes by courtesy of self-appointed Israeli justices who bend over backwards to uphold "Palestinian rights" and who order the opening of Israeli roads like the 443 to those who quickly turn them into new killing grounds. In a very real sense, these 'bleeding heart judges' are responsible for much of today's Jewish bloodshed.
Emergency powers will override that skewed court system and will act immediately to put these so-called Palestinians back in their place …. away from our people.
Labels: israel, palestinians
Let's get real and act as if we own the place !
The government's mantra is that peace is only possible if our Arab neighbours recognize Israel as a Jewish state.
But why should they if even we don't?
I'm not talking about nutjobs like Neturei Karta or the vile merchants of sedition at Ha'aretz.
I'm talking about Prime Minister Netanyahu and his security cabinet. I'm talking about Jerusalem Mayor Barkat and his municipal officers. I'm also talking about the justices of the local and superior courts. Why do they not recognise the sovereignty of their own state?
How can we expect others to take us seriously as a sovereign nation if we do not ourselves?
It's no exaggeration to say that almost every decision made at all levels of officialdom where it concerns Arabs is not determined by the interests of Israelis and their security, but by how foreign leaders, NGOs and media may judge us. This is totally unsustainable.
Look at poor Europe as it struggles with its migrant crisis and the failure of its single currency. These problems were not caused by Syria's civil war or incompetent central bankers. They are rooted in the erosion of 'nation statehood' within what was supposed to be a European free trade area. Once proud and independent countries like Britain ceded their national identity in a European melting pot and lost control of their laws, currency and borders. As we see the demise in what European states have so suddenly lost, we must jealously guard and empower our own nation statehood and sovereignty.
It is therefore absurd that, whilst we still have our independence, we look to failing European states for approval of our own sovereign actions. We need to stop beseeching Arab states to recognize our right to exist. That would be like the oldest founding member of a golf club having to show ID at the door. We exist, we have repossessed our biblical homeland and we should be seen to be exercising all the powers of our sovereignty to maintain security, law and order and our national ethos and values. Truly a light unto the flickering European ex-nations.
This means, Mr Minister of Security Gilad Erdan, that we will not 'grin and bear it' whilst young children of freshly slain Jews are still sitting shiva. This means, Mr Netanyahu, that 'zero-tolerance' is about breaking bones not walking on eggshells. And this, Mayor Barkat, means that by failing for years to protect the peace of the dead on the Mount of Olives you've empowered the cemetery vandals to go butchering live Jews in Har Nof, stabbing families in the Old City and stoning your new light railway on a nightly basis.
So, let's get real and act as if we own the place.

Our blog-writing deal with The London Grooming Company SA – Word Couture Co.
After our TV debut on Zaheerah Bham-Ismail's iTrend show a few weeks ago, several awesome opportunities have presented themselves, and this week, one of these projects has successfully kicked off. We've written our first blog post for London Grooming Company SA, an online business which retails imported grooming products for men.
A blog-type section on any website is always a nice-to-have. It drives users to your website, helps with search engine rankings, promotes specific products while subtly persuading readers to click that 'Buy' button, and gives you interesting and relevant content to share with your followers on social media. Like most business owners, the London Grooming Company SA team realised that trying to maintain a blog in-house was time consuming and caused them to lose focus on their core business. Instead of trying to do it all themselves, they began looking for dependable, efficient writers to generate fresh and authentic content.
As of May 2018, the London Grooming Company SA blog is now in the capable hands of Word Couture Co. We've been contracted to manage the 'Journal' section which includes accessing the admin panel to upload one article per week, incorporate links and tags, and of course respond to readers' comments. We've also got free reign to decide on topics and inject as much creativity and flair into the articles as possible. Our first post, 'Vikings – The Original Bearded Hipsters' is an entertaining read which explores how these 8th-11th-century Scandinavian warriors first set the lengthy facial hair grooming trend more than 1000 years ago, and this lighthearted piece will be followed by personal profiles, how-to tips and advice, barber reviews and more!
We've said it before and we'll say it again; this is exactly what makes our jobs as copywriters exciting and oh so stimulating. If we didn't have reason to notice well-groomed men in a crowd or slap on some of hubby's aftershave just because we are 'conducting research'… Now we certainly do!


When it comes to creating energy efficiency in your home, it's easy to ignore the impact your windows have on your energy use. Drafty windows are easy to recognize, but you don't need to have a noticeable issue with your windows to benefit from replacement windows. The right windows can help you save energy when it comes to heating and cooling your home.
Thanks to modern technologies, the glass in your windows can improve energy efficiency. And that doesn't just mean tinting your windows. Multiple-pane alternatives, various kinds of glazing, gas fills, and even the method used to install the glass can help you save money on your energy bills any season, regardless of the weather.
When choosing windows for energy efficiency, it's important to first research their energy-performance ratings in relation to the Memphis climate and your home's design. What does "energy efficiency" even mean and how can you weigh the energy savings of one window against another once they're in your home?
Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC): Normally listed as a fraction, this is the amount of solar radiation that a window lets in. SHGC is measured on a scale from 0 to 1. Window SHGC normally ranges from 0.25 to 0.80. Again, a low number is better.
While they can cost more, triple-pane windows can offer even better energy efficiency that is worth the expense. Adding a middle pane means more protection against the elements and allows the inner pane of the window to stay nearer to room temperature. A third pane also impacts any convection currents and drafts that could make a room chillier.
Beyond improving energy efficiency, triple-pane windows also bring greater protection against loud noises and break-in damage than double-pane replacement windows. So, if you have rambunctious neighbors or live on a busy street, you might benefit from triple-pane windows.
The glazing on your window can play a large role in reducing both the SHGC and VT that influence ENERGY STAR ratings. For years, people have used tinted glazing to block sunlight and reduce glare. Two other features can help on both sides of the glass and increase energy efficiency in your home.
On windows with two or more panes of glass, insulated glazing is created when the glass panes are spaced apart and hermetically sealed, leaving an insulating air space. Insulated window glazing predominantly lowers the U-factor, but it also decreases the SHGC.
Low-e coating can also have an effect on energy efficiency. A microscopically thin, virtually invisible metal or metallic oxide layer deposited directly on the surface of one or more of the panes of glass, low-e coating helps decrease the window's U-factor and can reduce energy loss by as much as 30 to 50 percent.
create a moisture barrier to resist water or vapor condensation.
Single-seal systems use an organic sealant applied behind the spacers that holds the unit together and restrains moisture leakage. A double-seal system includes a secondary backing sealant, often silicon, to further defend against leaks. Double-seal systems are most often used in low-e windows to stop any of the sealed gasses from escaping.
