Group Home Program
EA's Group Home Program is for children who are able to function in a community setting, but do not function well in a foster home. These structured facilities are family homes in many ways. The principal operators own, and live in the group home.

Although each facility has its own style and program, we expect each to accommodate specific directives and wishes of placement workers.

Each of our twelve homes operates within a prescribed framework of policies and procedures. For example, each home is monitored and receives counseling service on a weekly basis from an agency social worker. The program borrows the intimacy of a family setting along with the staffing and structure of higher level programs. Yet, beyond the uniform structure, each home adopts a unique style suited to the group home family. Some homes emphasize a ranch style atmosphere, with horse riding and animal care. Other homes emphasize certain sport and recreational activities. Yet another leans toward substance abuse and therapeutic interventions. Two homes specialize in grade school children, another on the junior high age group. Six homes take females and six take males; none are coed.

Because we empower and support facility operators, burnout is almost non existent.

This means high levels of stability and continuity, essential in establishing strong bonds with children. Authority centers around live-in staff, with shift workers providing additional assistance.

Our numerous homes and programs provide flexibility. When the particular dynamics of a child require movement between homes rather than a placement failure, we can arrange it.

All group home residents undergo the agency assessment program. Each child receives a battery of tests and social appraisal at six month intervals. Progress is measured both objectively and subjectively. The results are used to modify program plans, target areas for special attention, and provide cues to behavior management.

We designed our admission procedure to be fast and easy. Placement agencies shouldn't have to wait days or weeks for admission screening. Counties can call any of our offices, group homes, or county liaisons to initiate the process. It's our task to respond to the placement worker with current status on bed availability.

We rely heavily on the opinion of placement worker as to suitability of the child for this level of care.

When desired, face-to-face interviews can be arranged. Our responsiveness, along with dedicated efforts to make placements successful, results in high occupancy rates. For recent years, occupancy averaged 100%; never falling below 97% since the program was founded in 1981.

Our 6-Bed Homes function at RCL 10.

30-Bed Group Home Program
The Warner Mountains Group Home is for boys and girls, ages nine through eighteen, who have difficulty functioning in small units, are more difficult to manage, and/or need a higher level of supervision. This 30-Bed facility is located in a rural, remote, ranchland setting in Modoc County.

This program offers a self-contained environment with limited access to the community and an on-grounds school.

More structure and routine is incorporated into the daily schedule.

Even with a definite step up in supervision, this program resembles the 6-Bed program in some useful ways. For example, permanent senior staff reside in each of the five living units. Both sexes are accepted, but are housed in separate living quarters. We avoid using shift workers in favor of regular, daily contact between staff and child. Staff turnover rate is impressively low.

In October 1994, the facility was moved nearby to a totally new facility, with an increase in capacity to 30 beds.

As placement agencies might expect, this program operates on a level system. Children progress through three identifiable phases, well marked by behavioral performance standards and accompanying privileges.

Two social workers are in the facility daily, providing routine counseling and guidance to children and staff.

The court school is operated by the local public school and used exclusively by our children. The school and group home staff interact on a fluid, daily basis. This results in a continuity of program and methods.

Because the facility is remote and isolated, we experience fewer runaways and less city distractions.

For admission, placement workers can call the facility directly, contact a county liaison, or any EA social worker. Placement workers should receive admission status information promptly.

As with all our programs, each child undergoes our thorough assessment, including testing and social work appraisals at six month intervals.

This facility functions at RCL 10.

Weekdays 5am - 10am

Well, they kinda look like Cheetos....

Close to 50 carrot growers have banded together for a $25 million marketing campaign to get people to consider carrots instead of junk food for those lunch-boxes.  The growers have hired an ad agency  to come up with an ad and branding campaign that will make baby carrots just as hip and  appealing (or more so) than junk food ads for children's lunches. The new campaign sees baby carrots packaged in Doritos-like bags.  They’ll be putting catchy slogans on billboards and packs: " Baby carrots: the  original orange doodles."  There are even plans for a phone app powered by the sound of folks munching carrots in real time.  The campaign will also air TV spots that tout baby carrots as extreme, futuristic and even sexy.  Sexy? And finally, there will even be special seasonal tie-ins. This Halloween will introduce us to "scarrots."  Yikes! And as the family that gives out baby carrots instead of candy on Halloween, start saving up for the therapy your child will undoubtedly need…

Zeiss edges out Swarovski - 03/27/2015

by Carl from Kona Hawaii

Own a pair of 8.5x44 EL Swarovski for 10 years. Never been impressed with Zeiss lineup. Keep a open mind. When there is something new i check it out. In the store, compared the New Swarovision 8.5x42 with the SF Zeiss 8x42. WOW! i like the Zeiss. They are just sooooo refined to perfection. Yes, the focus is better than butter. The feel in your hands superb. The .5 power on the Swaro is a double edge sword. It is noticeable. It's the fine line where you start to shake. When i look through the Zeiss i don't shake at all. Relaxing, effortless, you don't want to put them down. And, you don't want the Swaro back in your hands. Over all these Zeiss are edging out the Swaro i almost don't want to say that. I did look through the SF 10x42 Zeiss. Did not like them at all. Swarovski has a tremendous 10x50, 12x50, and the wonderful 15x56 which Zeiss has nothing close to these models. Well, if you can't decide on what to buy. Get a pair of Ranger 10x50 ED's. They cost about as much as the tax you will pay for the big guns. The 50mm objective on these ED Rangers make these impressive performers. Very lightweight and compact for a 10x50. Best bang for the buck in the whole store. Carl

First Look Victory SF - 02/16/2015

by Chuck P. from Kula, Maui

Just returned from a birding trip to Honduras partially sponsored by Zeiss and Eagle Optics to field test the new Victory SF's. We were allowed to choose either an 8x or 10x 42
model. I chose the 8x as a senior birder I can no longer steady a 10x well enough. I have a Swarovision EL 8.5x42 with which I compared the new offering from Zeiss. The first appearance of the Zeiss is of a LONG barreled bino. Compared side by side it is only a ocular cap thickness difference between the two and the listed specs give it as .5 inches longer. But it looks long. I prefer the finish of the Swarovski - the green color and roughened surface appeal to me but this is personal. The next difference is when you pick it up. The perceived weight difference is really noticeable with the Zeiss feeling much lighter. My wife who uses tiny Leica 10x32's picked it up out of box and without knowing anything about specs exclaimed, "Wow, this is light!" The Zeiss is listed at 27.5oz, the Swaro 28oz, hardly noticeable one would think but after repeated testing back and forth the weight difference is noticeable. Zeiss claims to have pushed the weight balance back from the objectives toward the oculars making them feel lighter but the perceived lightness is very real and extends to scanning treetops for long periods with less arm fatigue. The elastic neck strap also seems to decrease
the weight on the neck with long field use. In the hand the thinner barrels of the Swaros feels better to me (small hands) and I really like the thumb detents on the Swaros. The Zeiss focus knob seems in a slightly more "natural" position for me, but this may vary with users hands. I like the rubber ocular guards on the Zeiss slightly better than the hard plastic Swaros. The focus on the Zeiss is butter smooth - the best I've used on a bino. I missed the extra 0.5x of the Swaro on the Zeiss, but the huge field of view and slightly increased brightness were noticeable on the Zeiss. I couldn't detect any difference in sharpness and the increased field of view in the Zeiss made comparing edge sharpness difficult. Depth of field and close focus appeared equal. Hard cases were of equal quality and similiarly fiddly. In summary, they are pretty close and will come down to individual preferences: sleeker design, 8.5x, of the Swarovski($60 less expensive at EO)vs the lightness, field of view, slightly brighter image thru the Zeiss. Both are state of the art.

Eastbourne College exists to provide the best possible education for boys and girls aged 13–18. An Eastbourne College education develops pupils academically, broadens their experience outside the classroom and reinforces explicit, shared values. It prepares pupils to play full and effective roles in society.

The College places great emphasis on the importance of an education based on core values, relationship-building and community. In an educational world dominated by statistical measures of short-term academic success, the College combines academic rigour with a determination to educate children for the long term.

For many years, Eastbourne College has benefited not only pupils who can afford to pay the full fees but also a cross section of society by:

  • giving wider access to education irrespective of the ability to pay for it
  • sharing facilities for the educational benefit of other young people
  • educating pupils by involving them actively in the education of others, young and old

Wider access to education

As an independent fee-paying school, the College recognises that not all can afford its fees and one of the College’s most significant public benefits is to give the opportunity of an Eastbourne College education to pupils whose parents could not afford to educate their children at the College otherwise. Every year the College gives financial support in the form of means tested bursaries to fund pupils who would not otherwise be able to come. Fee remission varies in value from a minimum of 10% to a maximum of 100% depending on financial need.

Community partnerships

As a major employer in the area and a significant player in the local economy, the College is actively engaged in working with and for the wider Eastbourne community. There are a number of partnerships with local organisations that provide community, educational and sporting activities involving our pupils, staff, the general public and facilities. In addition to the Eastbourne Schools Partnership outlined below, details of other similar relationships may be found on the Links with the Community page.

Eastbourne Schools Partnership

The Eastbourne Schools Partnership is a partnership of schools and Colleges located in the Eastbourne area. Eastbourne College is delighted to be part of this group.

By linking our resources, expertise, enthusiasm and commitment we aim to develop projects and ideas that inspire, excite and offer creative opportunities for children and young people. Initiatives planned for 2014-2015 include a busking day and unplugged concert to raise money for St Wilfrid’s Hospice, creative writing and art competitions and a big musical event involving all schools.

Program invites guest speaker, teaches basics of Islam

On Tuesday, Mohammed Safi, the Muslim Chaplain at the University of Michigan, gave a talk titled “What is Islam?”

The talk was organized by Eastern Michigan University’s Muslim Student Association.

Safi spent the first half of the talk explaining the fundamental characteristics of Islam. He joked that he has to give such talks all the time, but has to explain all of Islam in 10 minutes.

Safi begins by relating an anecdote about the Prophet Muhammad two years before his time as prophet came to an end. Muhammad was visited by the archangel Gabriel and Muhammad related to the angel the five pillars of Islam:

• There is no lord worthy of worship except the one true God and Muhammad is his messenger

• The ritual of prayer was established

• One must fast the month of Ramadan

• One must give to charity

• One must make the pilgrimage to Mecca once in one’s life if they are physically and financially able.

“People don’t like the idea that there are rules,” said Safi.

He goes on to say that critics of Islam often say things like “Well you know what why would God create us and then tell us that we had to do x, y and z? The reality is that’s not why God created us.”

Safi said humanity has the unique ability to come to know God. If you ask Muslims what Islam is about, Safi summarizes what they will say.

“It’s about knowledge and worship of God,” Safi said.

Safi provided a rich description of his faith complete with its historical contexts. At the end of this he paused and prayed with the Muslims in the audience before fielding questions.

Dan Marlow, EMU graduate majoring in supply chain management, said the topic of Islam has always interested him.

“He was able to answer my questions accurately and informatively,” said Marlow.
Marlow fielded some difficult questions to Safi about homosexuality and its harsh punishment in Arab countries. Safi said the governments in many Arab countries are remnants of British and
French legal systems left there from imperialist times. He said the execution of homosexuals in the
Middle East is from an Islamic standpoint, wrong.

“…This may surprise you. In every legal text that you will read in Islamic law, they will talk about men, women and people who are neither,” Safi said. He did however go on to acknowledge that homosexuality as an act is forbidden in Islam and the punishment for committing that act varies.

MSA President Elaf Alchurbaji said she was impressed by Safi’s credentials and style of speaking.

“I definitely like how he spoke in modern terms to a modern audience,” Alchurbaji said.
Safi answered a question to address the discrimination Muslims face particularly in the U.S.. He talked about how the suspects in the Boston Marathon bombing were not called white, they were called Muslim.

Safi went on to say Muslims are not new in the U.S. Many Africans brought to the U.S. during the slave trade were Muslim. Because no one questioned who they were. Arab-Americans thought no one questioned them either.

“They kind of thought they were white until September 11 hit and then they realized they weren’t,” Safi said.

Ahmed Abbas is a graduate student in developmental psychology and a member of MSA. Safi had visited the mosque in Canton, which Abbas attends, so he was familiar with the chaplain.
Abbas said he knew what Safi had said but had never thought about it before the presentation.

“The one thing that I kinda jumped at was the concept of having Arabs being Jewish, Muslim or Christian in faith and all calling God ‘Allah,’” Abbas said.

Phillies’ Ryan Howard Cleared For Baseball Activities

National Sports

0  Updated at 10:00 pm, April 29th, 2012 By:
Share This Story

Drew Hallowell/Getty Images(PHILADELPHIA) — The Philadelphia Phillies have one of the lowest scoring offenses in all of baseball, but luckily for them, they have reinforcements coming. Slugging first baseman Ryan Howard has been given the OK to resume baseball activities after recovering from a ruptured Achilles last October.

Howard flew to Clearwater, Florida today to step up his rehab and begin the process of making his way back to the field. He will start off fielding ground balls and throwing. If all goes well, he’ll start swinging a bat again, something he hasn’t done in over two months.While there is no timetable for Howard’s return, this is the a big step in the right direction.

Howard is a key offensive member of the Phillies. He hit 33 home runs last season which was the sixth-most in National League, and he drove in 116 runs, which was third-best in the National League. Howard suffered the injury in the team’s final at-bat during their Game 5 Wildcard playoff loss to the St. Louis Cardinals.

The Phillies are off to a 10-12 start and rank 27th in runs scored.

(If any tax is payable it will be calculated and shown at checkout.)
The Venette Convention has always remained independent, but it is about to become the flashpoint for a tense military standoff between the two power blocs now dominating interstellar space—the United Federation of Planets and the recently formed Typhon Pact. The Venetan government turns to the Typhon Pact’s Tzenkethi Coalition for protection in the new order, and has agreed to allow three of their supply bases for Tzenkethi use. But these bases—if militarized—would put Tzenkethi weapons unacceptably close to Federation, Cardassian, and Ferengi space. While Captain Ezri Dax and the crew of the U.S.S. Aventine are sent to investigate exactly what is happening at one of the Venette bases, Captain Jean-Luc Picard and the U.S.S. Enterprise are assigned to a diplomatic mission sent to the Venette homeworld in order to broker a mutually acceptable resolution. But the Cardassian delegates don’t seem particularly keen on using diplomacy to resolve the situation, which soon spirals out of control toward all-out war. . . .

Family nutrition expert Eileen Behan posits that good nutrition and good eating habits start on day one. The Baby Food Bible features a guide to more than one hundred foods recommended for infants and toddlers based on the American Academy of Pediatrics guidelines, explains when to introduce these foods into a child’s diet, and emphasizes the importance of setting healthy eating routines that center on family meals at the dining room table. You’ll also learn how to avoid everyday pitfalls, such as relying on too much fruit juice or labeling your child a picky eater; decipher the many labels and ingredient lists at the grocery story; and prevent and treat common food-related issues, as well as discourage chronic disease.

Bryan Vartabedian, M.D.

But recent medical advances made through cutting-edge technology now reveal that many if not most cases are caused by acid reflux. In this revolutionary book, Bryan Vartabedian, a noted pediatric gastroenterologist and the father of two babies with acid reflux, provides hands-on, practical advice about this hidden epidemic—and how to make your own baby happy again. Complete with inspiring real-life cases of colic solved, plus tips and illustrations, this essential guide provides real answers to a problem that has been upsetting babies—and parents—for years. Help and hope are at hand!

Title:The sustainability of fiscal policy in the United States PDF Logo
Authors:Bohn, Henning
Issue Date:2005
Series/Report no.:CESifo working papers 1446
Abstract:The paper examines the sustainability of U.S. fiscal policy, finding substantial evidence in favor. I summarize the U.S. fiscal record from 1792-2003, critically review sustainability conditions and their testable implications, and apply them to U.S. data. I particularly emphasize the ramifications of economic growth. A ?growth dividend? has historically covered the entire interest bill on the U.S. debt. Unit root tests on real series, unscaled by GDP, are distorted by the series? severe heteroskedasticity. The most credible evidence in favor of sustainability is the robust positive response of primary surpluses to fluctuations in the debt-GDP ratio.

Title:Understanding the impact of the economic crisis on child and maternal health among the poor: Opportunities for South Asia PDF Logo
Authors:Abdul Cader, Azra
Perera, Lakwimashi
Issue Date:2011
Series/Report no.:ADBI working paper series 293
Abstract:The economic crisis hit many countries in 2007 and the effects are still being felt, especially in poorer developing nations. Much of the debate surrounding the economic crisis and its impacts has focused on the financial and economic aspects - import/export impacts, economic growth losses, labor force cutbacks, and fiscal imbalances. The social impact, especially on poor and vulnerable groups, has received less mention. Yet, if countries are to address the overall impacts of the economic crisis, it is vital that they also consider investing time and money to deal with social impacts more effectively. There are fears, however, that a reduction in spending on vital sectors (including the healthcare sector) to ensure economic recovery could affect poor and vulnerable populations and, in turn, erase the progress that has been made thus far. The decision to reduce such spending could also come from donors, who tend to favor a market-led recovery process in economic crises, thereby neglecting vital social service sectors that cater to the needs of poor populations. This spending can supplement government services or fill resource gaps and as a result reductions could have negative impacts on beneficiary populations, particularly the poor and vulnerable. Addressing child and maternal health issues within the context of the economic crisis is one key area to consider given its short, medium, and long-term effects on populations in developing countries. In South Asian countries, child and maternal health-related indicators tend to be disturbing despite the rapid growth rates in many of these countries. The number of infant deaths is still quite high, nutrition of children and women continues to be problematic, and maternal health and pre/post natal care remains poor. This paper presents an overview of child and maternal health in the South Asia region, but also recommends that interventions take into account a series of factors if the impacts of the economic crisis are to be minimized: There is a need for more information and research on the impacts of the crisis; Investing in social protection and safety nets is imperative; Food security should be integrated into social protection; Vulnerable households require support to cope with the crisis despite their own efforts and coping strategies; State investments that support vulnerable populations should be protected in times of crisis.

Rotel RCD-1570 CD Player

Rotel RCD-1570 CD Player

Rotel just announced a thousand dollar CD player, model RCD-1570, for audiophiles, which offers careful refinements to reveal even the most subtle nuances buried in a CD’s pit spiral. One of its most important features is the Wolfson WM8740 digital filter/stereo digital-to-analog converter. Originally developed for high-resolution sources, it is the product of extensive research and real-world testing and processes digital signals up to 24-bits in length at sampling rates from 8kHz to 192kHz.

While word lengths and sampling rates may seem excessive for CDs delivering data at far lower rates, this high-speed facility adds reserve capability to ensure proper reproduction under all circumstances. As the most crucial link between a CD’s digital data and the analog world in which we listen, this converter boasts significant attributes in addition to its superb high-resolution capabilities. Two digital filter modes allow choice of roll-off characteristics while flexible connections permit adding additional filter modes calculated to bring CDs to life in ways not easily appreciated until they’re auditioned.

Another advance is the RCD-1570s slot-loading disc transport. In addition to mechanical simplicity and improved reliability, this design isolates the CD itself from potentially destructive vibration modes that may affect musical definition. And from a purely aesthetic viewpoint, it adds elegance by simplifying the front panels appearance.

The post-converter analog circuitry benefits from Rotel’s decades-long experience in crafting the finest sounding pathway from the D/A’s internal output to single- and double-ended rear panel connectors that bridge the gap between the RCD-1570 and down-stream components. All circuit components—resistors, capacitors, inductors—are chosen only after their positive contribution to sound quality were quantified and verified qualitatively by extensive listening sessions.

All of these circuits draw on a power supply based on an oversized custom Rotel designed and precision-manufactured toroidal power transformer that, in turn, feeds precise rectifiers, tight-tolerance voltage regulators, and advanced Slit-Foil low-ESR storage capacitors, all globally-sourced to ensure musically accurate operation under even the most demanding conditions.

XRL connectors provide balanced outputs, long recognized for their superior noise-rejecting characteristics while high quality RCA connectors provide an easy pathway to the myriad of components with single-ended inputs.

Price and Availability
The Rotel RCD-1570 CD Player will be available May 2013 for $999.

Cataract Surgery May Reduce Auto Crashes

CHICAGO, Oct. 23 (UPI) — Cataract surgery improves vision for older people with a corresponding reduction in car crashes, researchers in Australia say.

Dr. Jonathon Ng at the Curtin University in Bentley, Australia, and the Eye & Vision Epidemiology Research Group and colleagues studied accident rates for Western Australian residents before and after cataract surgery on the first eye.

The study involved 27,827 patients — age 60 and older — who had a cataract removed from one eye from 1997 to 2006. Patient records were linked to the Western Australian Road Injury Database to identify those involved in a motor vehicle crash 12 months prior to and 12 months following cataract surgery dates.

The majority involved in crashes were men ages 70-79 who lived in metropolitan areas.

“We found cataract surgery reduced the frequency of all crashes by 12.6 percent after accounting for other potential confounders and the cost savings from this reduction amounted to about $4.3 million,” Ng, the study leader, said. “Each operation saved about $150 in crash costs. By including all crashes rather than just fatal and hospitalization crashes, all possible benefits of cataract surgery were taken into account.”

The findings were presented at the American Academy of Ophthalmology — Middle East-Africa Council of Ophthalmology Joint Meeting.

Housing to Meet Particular Needs

Housing Mix

Policy HS5

This policy expired on the 27 September 2007.
See the 2014 to 2032 draft local plan.

On sites allocated for residential use the Council will seek to secure a housing mix which will meet the needs of the local community. Where there is evidence of a need for affordable housing the Council will negotiate for the provision of a proportion of housing to meet this need within the overall development.

3.26 Based upon the latest guidance, as set out in Planning Policy Guidance Note 3 - Housing, Cumbria County Council has indicated within the Structure Plan an expectation that provision will be made on large housing sites for a proportion of affordable housing to meet local needs. Addressing the situation found in Cumbria as a whole, the Structure Plan indicates that sites accommodating twenty or more dwellings will normally be taken as large sites for the purposes of implementing the relevant policy (Policy 32), a level which is considered appropriate for sites in urban areas of the District.

3.27 However, in many ways the rural parts of Eden are atypical, having very few settlements where developments of twenty or more dwellings might reasonably be expected. For this reason it is considered unrealistic to fix the level at which Policy HS5 should come into effect in respect of rural locations. Individual rural sites will therefore be considered in the relevant local context. The provision of affordable housing could be achieved either through the construction of dwellings for sale or by making part of a site available for development by a trust or housing association on terms which facilitate the provision of affordable housing.

Affordable Housing for Local Needs

Policy HS6

This policy expired on the 27 September 2007.
See the 2014 to 2032 draft local plan.

The Council may exceptionally grant planning permission for small scale housing development, in addition to that permitted under policies HS1 and HS4, to meet specific local needs for affordable housing which cannot otherwise be met. In order to be considered for release such land will be assessed against those criteria set out in Policy HS4 and must also:

  1. be related in scale to the level of substantiated need in the locality;
  2. be the subject of an agreement (usually under Section 106) which will ensure both first and subsequent occupancy of the dwellings to people from the locality; and
  3. be the subject of development and/or management proposals which will ensure the provision of housing at an affordable cost in perpetuity.

3.28 With the land allocations made in Policy HS1, together with outstanding commitments, there exists a substantial supply of housing land for open market development and until this supply has been significantly reduced it is not intended to permit the release of further sites. It is accepted, however, that due to market forces these sites may not be capable of being developed at affordable cost to meet local needs. In consequence, the Council is prepared to consider strictly limited further releases to meet proven local needs of this type. To be considered favourably any proposal must be the subject of some form of management arrangement, e.g. a local housing trust or housing association which is able to control the occupancy of property in perpetuity. Proposals which restrict first sales only will not be considered within this policy. Schemes submitted for consideration must be supported by evidence of the need it is intended to meet and by financial details to show the scheme to be viable and capable of providing affordable housing in the context of the local housing market. Due to the exceptional nature of schemes to provide affordable housing, the sites proposed may include some which are environmentally sensitive. The details of each proposal will be assessed, and must be judged acceptable against, the criteria set out in Policy HS4.

3.29 Substantial research has been undertaken within the District in order to assess the level of need for affordable housing. Through locally conducted surveys in some twenty parishes it has been established that about 8% of households are seeking accommodation yet are unable to compete on the open market. At a District level, this suggests that a total of some 1440 households face housing difficulties. The Council are actively pursuing projects which will contribute to meeting this need.

3.30 The following categories of need, as set out in Planning Policy Guidance Note 3, will be taken into account when assessing demand for affordable housing:

  • existing residents needing separate accommodation in the area (e.g. newly married couples; people leaving tied accommodation on retirement);
  • people whose work provides important services and who need to live closer to the local community;
  • people who are not necessarily resident locally but have long-standing links with the local community (eg elderly people who need to move back to a village to be near relatives);
  • people with the offer of a job in the locality who cannot take up the offer because of lack of affordable housing.

Housing for People with Physical Disabilities

3.31 A significant proportion of households in the District have at least one member with a physical disability. In the past little has been done to meet the particular needs of this part of the population except within special housing schemes. The result is that the housing needs of a significant part of the population remain unmet. The Council will therefore seek to facilitate through negotiation the provision of new housing which is more convenient for disabled people to live in and to visit. Guidance on appropriate standards may be found in the advisory guidance published by the Access Committee for England and the Centre for Accessible Environments.

Workers Dwellings in the Countryside

Policy HS7

Policy NE1 indicates that development will not be permitted outside established settlements. Exceptionally, consent may be granted for a dwelling to meet a proven need. This will be for occupation by a farm or forestry worker with a demonstrable need for a dwelling in a particular locality or for a dwelling required in association with a rural enterprise where such a need can be substantiated. Applications for such dwellings will need to meet the following criteria:

  1. that the overriding need justifying the dwelling can be substantiated;
  2. that the scale of the proposed dwelling is commensurate with the established functional requirement of the enterprise concerned;
  3. that the siting of the dwelling is well related to an existing building or group of buildings;
  4. that the design and materials used respect local tradition and the setting concerned; and
  5. that any impact upon landscape, archaeological or environmental conservation interests is acceptable.

Occupancy Controls

Policy HS8

This policy expired on the 27 September 2007.
See the 2014 to 2032 draft local plan.

Where consent is granted for a dwelling to meet a particular need under the terms of policy HS7 such consent will be subject to a condition which restricts the occupancy of the dwelling and, where appropriate, permits construction of the dwelling only once the associated enterprise is established. Where appropriate, occupancy conditions will be imposed also on existing dwellings on the unit under the control of the applicant and planning obligations sought to tie the new dwelling to the unit to prevent its sale separate from the unit without the grant of an express consent.

3.32 In accordance with Structure Plan Policy 13, which reflects long established national policy concerning residential development in the countryside, the Council will limit such development solely to that which has some essential justification with the intent of protecting the open and undeveloped character of the countryside. The countryside of the District represents an important natural asset, much of which has been recognised as being of outstanding natural beauty or landscape of county importance. Protection of this asset accords with Government guidance set out in Planning Policy Guidance Note 7 which indicates that the countryside should be safeguarded for its own sake..

3.33 The wording of HS7 does, however, indicate that the Council accepts that there are employment generating enterprises, in addition to agriculture and forestry, which are appropriate within the countryside and in association with which there may be a justifiable need for a dwelling. In all cases the stringent criteria set out will have to be met. In assessing the need for a dwelling the Council will have regard to the tests described in Annex E of PPG7. It will be necessary in particular for an applicant to be able to demonstrate that the functioning of the enterprise is dependant upon there being a resident worker and that such a requirement will continue to exist in the long term. Particular care will also be taken to ensure that any resulting dwelling is of a scale and design commensurate with the established functional requirement of the enterprise concerned.

3.34 Policy HS8 indicates the wide range of mechanisms identified in Planning Policy Guidance Note 7 which may be used to try and ensure that, where consent is given to meet a particular need, the dwelling will continue to meet that need. The Council regularly imposes occupancy conditions on new dwellings. Exceptionally more stringent controls, including planning agreements, may be considered appropriate. When seeking consent for a dwelling applicants should be able to demonstrate the basis for the need and will be required to provide evidence support the application.

Everyday hand lotion - hand cream by Evolution of Smooth - review by All His

  • Save 15% sitewide — code: THRILL15

Handy Hand Lotion

This was a great travel friendly hand lotion that came in one of my favorite scents. But the scent didn't last too long and you don't get very much lotion for the cost. It wasn't overly exciting but it got the job its meant for done without being greasy and slippery.
Travel friendly, nice scent, scent not too strong, non-greasy, doesn't leave hands slippery
scent doesn't last too long, the label peels too easily, wish there was more in the container
Rating by reviewer:
extremely useful review

The Everyday Hand Lotion by EOS is a perfect little lotion to keep in your purse for when your hands are feeling a little dry. There is a scent but it is light enough that anyone could use it unless you want no scent at all or are sensitive to fragrances. It is for external use only and works best as a hand lotion.

Texture / Consistency / Thickness / Viscosity

The consistency of Everyday Hand Lotion by EOS is thick enough that is doesn't come pouring out of the container when open it. It is also thin enough that it comes out of the container very easily when you squeeze it. It is very easy to control the amount that comes out. The lotion goes on very easily and is not greasy. It leaves your hands feeling smooth but dries rather quickly so your hands are not left slippery as you wait for it to dry.
    • Creamy
    • Smooth

Taste / Aroma

This hand lotion is not meant for ingestion so I did not taste it. I got the cucumber melon scent as it is one of my favorite scents but most cucumber melon scents don't meet my high standards for that scent. This one surprisingly met the 'cucumber melon test' as my husband calls it. It is not too overpowering but is a great balance between the two scents. The smell is not too strong once you put it on but it is definitely there. The scent starts to fade after about 30 minutes and is completely gone after about an hour.

This is not the most moisturizing lotion I have ever used but it does moisturize your hands. If you're looking for an extreme moisturizing lotion then I would suggest looking elsewhere. However I really liked the scent and it lasts longer than I had thought. I only had to reapply after at least 4 hours, depending on what I was doing with my hands. I would have liked for the scent to have lasted a little longer than the hour it lasted but the size of the container is perfect for throwing in my purse and having readily available.
    • Absorbs into skin nicely
    • Feels natural

The Everyday Hand Lotion by EOS comes in a flat oval container that easily fits in your hand. It has a pop top that doesn't pop open when thrown in my purse. The size of the container is perfect for not taking up too much space in my purse and not adding any extra weight. The container is well made except for the label. The label looked like something I could have printed at home and just stuck onto the side of the container. Before I even had a chance to put it in my purse the edges of the label had started to peel and pick up lint. The label does not interfere with the functioning of the container however and is just cosmetic.
    • Can be opened with one hand
    • Does not leak
    • Travel friendly

VH1 Supersonic

‘Vh1 Supersonic’ Festival Confirmed in India, DJ Lineup Announced

LIVE Viacom18 finally confirm that its brand new music and culture festival experience, Vh1 SUPERSONIC, will be landing in Candolim, Goa from the 26th – 30th of December 2013!

Landing on the shores of Goa between Christmas and New Year, just a few of the international stars set to perform across 5 magical days on the beach town of Candolim later this month include Above & Beyond, Albin Myers, Benny Benassi, Booka Shade, BT, Edu Imbernon, Felix Cartal, Ferry Corsten, Julian Jordan, Norman Doray, Yousef and more (full details below). Many of those christneing the event will be playing extended ‘Spotlight’ sets, giving fans the prolonged musical experiences that they don’t usually get from other festivals around the world. Further additions to the lineup will be added in the next few days.

Enlisting the inimitable knowledge, expertise and overall vision of India’s much loved DJ, VJ, dance music promoter and now Festival Curator, Nikhil Chinapa, Vh1 SUPERSONIC will offer dance music aficionados from India and around the world an unparalleled immersive experience, coupled with the very best music across a whole spectrum of electronic genres. A fully interactive and captivating music festival looking to restoring the magic and essence of Goa from the 1950s and 60s, Vh1 SUPERSONIC will no doubt be the highlight of this year’s Indian festival calendar.

Welcoming some of the world’s most talented DJs to the shores of Candolim, Goa this December, Vh1 SUPERSONIC will also – and most importantly – be looking to bring friends together to restore the spirit of community and the collective passion for electronic music that’s been missing from the Indian festival market of late.

By combining some of the biggest names in dance music with a carefully crafted selection of the very best and burgeoning talent from India – such as Ajit Pai, Ash Roy, Ma Faiza, Mash, Nawed Khan, Pearl, Praveen Achary, Sanjay Dutta, Tuhin Mehta, Vachan Chinnappa – the festival will target devoted music lovers whose needs aren’t being met in the current Indian music festival landscape.

Connecting serious music enthusiasts directly with the artists they love Vh1 SUPERSONIC is no doubt set to become a sanctuary for forward-thinking music fans looking for life-affirming experiences to share with the great friends old and new. Maintaining a healthy balance between popular and underground music, this will be a festival for the true dance music fan, for whom music is a way of life.

Besides Vh1 SUPERSONIC’s dedication to showcasing only the very best electronic music coupled with the numerous immersive experiences it promises to offer (including art installations, hippy markets, beach sports, professional graffiti artists, shaded chill zones, a library and the very finest cuisine Goa has to offer), the festival will also have a strong local focus, creating a platform to nurture and promote some of India’s best DJs on the same stages as the international artists, and will, more importantly than anything else, place absolute importance on the safety of all of it’s festival-goers.

With Viacom18’s huge broadcast strength, leverage of iconic music brands like MTV & Vh1 and considerable knowledge of events across all platforms – not forgetting Chinapa’s in-depth understanding of the global dance music industry – Vh1 SUPERSONIC promises to create a truly unforgettable experience on the sands of Goa in just a few weeks time.

Lineup announced so far are..

Above & Beyond
Ajit Pai
Albin Myers
Ash Roy
Benny Benassi
Booka Shade
Edu Imbernon
Felix Cartal

2010 Buick Lucerne CXL 4dr Sedan (3.9L 6cyl 4A)

Had I know my new Lucerne was going to look like all of the other foreign cars on the road I would have bought a Ford. The gas mileage "stinks" 22.3 on a long trip, never changes. I'm sure part of that is the ethenol in the gas, but my 2010 Park Avenue was getting 30+mpg with 125,000 miles on it. I really wish I hadn't bought the car. I don't look at a car a fun to drive, a car is a necessity. The ride is not smooth - my 2001 was smooth! I'll never buy another GM product unless they improve and stop making their cars look like the foreign cars on the road. I realize they are after the younger market. I'm almost tempted to trade this in!

Favorite Features

The interior is ok.

Suggested Improvements

Better colors, different body design; better suspension system; much, much better gas mileage.

What do you mean had you known what the car would look like?? Didn't you see it before you bought it? Even if you ordered the car this model has been out since 2006 so you have surely seen them in person. I completely agree with you that the Lucerne looks more like a Toyota than a Buick but if you don't care for that, then why did you buy the car? I had a 1999 Park Avenue and I traded it for one of the last 2005 models with 16K miles in 2008 because I don't care for the Lucerne. I will probably trade my Park Avenue for an Enclave because I still don't like the Lucerne and I like the LaCrosse even less. It is a shame Buick no longer makes a car for those of us who appreciate a traditional large American car. Sadly few still do.

About Me:

I am a 5th year graduate student in the EECS department at UC Berkeley, being advised by Professor Edward A. Lee. I received my B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering from UC Santa Barbara in the spring of 2010.

Research Interests:

My research interests include the design and verification of embedded systems, with a focus on hard and mixed-criticality real-time systems. In particular I am interested in how various methods of abstraction and tools can simplify and automate the design and verification of such systems. I am currently involved in the PRET and PTIDES projects.
